Maryem was great. She responded quickly to suggested changes to the trip planning. During the trip, we had one request about the hotel room for our next city, and she immediately contacted the hotel. My traveling companion, Patrize, did most of the trip planning and worked closely with Maryem and thought she was excellent. The hotels she booked for us were all very nice, especially the one in Marrakesh where we spent our first two and last two nights. Our driver and primary guide, Mohammed, was also excellent. He was very nice and easy to be with, which was important since we were with him for 13 days. Our other two traveling companions shared our views on Mohammed. We made a couple of itinerary changes during the trip, and he did whatever we asked of him. I had an incident with one hotel that accidentally charged me twice for an expense. As soon as I realized it (via a notification of the charges on my iPhone), I told Mohammed, and he called the hotel and fixed it. There were four of us on the trip, and Mohammed had a comfortable Mercedes-Benz SUV with cold water bottles and a nice Wi-Fi system, so we were always connected to the internet.
We saw a lot of Morocco, flying into and out of Marrakesh, going south over the Atlas Mountains into the desert, and taking a camel trek to a desert luxury camp and then north again over the mountains. We also visited Fes, Rabat, and Casablanca. Between Fes and Rabat, we stayed in Chefchaouen (the Blue City). The old part is small and very beautiful and well worth the side trip. In Marrakech, Fes, Rabat, and Chefchaouen, we took short tours with local guides who were all excellent. Mohammed was an excellent guide for the other parts of our trip. We even visited his relatives in Rissani, who had us for lunch at their home. All in all, a great trip thanks to you and your people in Morocco.
