As this was our first trip with Kimkim we were not sure what to expect in terms of service and quality of experiences and accommodations. After completing our two-week trip to Morocco though, we were in large part exceptionally pleased with the entire trip experience, although a couple of the accommodations might have been less than advertised. However, this was Africa, so our expectations were mostly commensurate with our locale. From the very beginning of the planning and all through the time we were in-country, our local specialist Majid was always available and checked in with us almost every day to make sure we were enjoying our trip and to offer advice and assistance whenever needed. We made a few on-the-spot changes to our schedule, and he was always accommodating. While we actually never met with Majid in-person, we spent considerable time every day with our driver Yosef. As it turned out, Yosef was probably the most impressive aspect of the entire trip insofar as he made everything run seamless, all the while being a perfect host, ambassador and overall delightful! He truly made us feel as though we were long-time friends, and his warmth and hospitality shone through as bright as the Saharan desert sun! We give him 6 stars for his effort and strongly recommend you request him if you have the opportunity.
We did have one problem that arose regarding a hike Kimkim arranged in Dades that was labelled an "easy" walk. It was anything but, with treacherous rocky and slippery terrain at every step. One of us suffered a serious fall and incurred an unfortunate injury as a result. The lesson here was to be more informed about such outings, and also for Kimkim to be more accurate about the level of a walk they arrange for their senior citizen customers. Aside from this unfortunate accident though, the rest of the trip was fantastic, and we will not hesitate in using Kimkim for our future travels.

Hi Dave,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your Morocco journey. We are delighted to hear that your overall experience exceeded expectations and that the trip left you with so many wonderful memories.

It was especially rewarding to read your kind words about Youssef. We take great pride in providing attentive service both during the planning process and throughout the trip itself. Youssef will be thrilled to know that his warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality had such a meaningful impact on your experience. We couldn't agree more that he is a wonderful ambassador for Morocco. We are, however, very sorry to hear about the fall and injury during the hike in the Dades Valley. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities. The hike is generally designed to be flexible and can be adapted to guests' fitness levels and mobility needs. Had the guide been made aware that the terrain was proving difficult or that a different pace or route would be preferable, he would certainly have adjusted the experience accordingly. That said, we completely understand your concerns, and we sincerely regret that this resulted in such a fall.

We truly appreciate your constructive feedback, as it helps us continue to improve how we describe activities and prepare travelers for different experiences. We are grateful that, despite this unfortunate incident, you were still able to enjoy the many highlights of Morocco and return home with positive memories.

Thank you again for traveling with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Morocco for another adventure in the future.
Kindly,
Majid
