Magical Morocco 2012

May 8-17th, 2012

This tour grabs my soul as I know it will yours…I can hardly wait to go back again and hope that you can join me on it. Please see our gorgeous day by day itinerary on it and join me on this magical carpet ride through Morocco. It is a small group tour and booking already.

What could be more magical than Morocco in May. So close to Europe, yet so different in every respect, Morocco is one of the world's most atmospheric countries, a riot of life and colour that can't fail to delight and stimulate every sense. I can still vividly remember the scents of flowers and spices as we walked through the medinas. The scent of orange blossom was everywhere. The countryside took our breath away with its beauty. I remember thinking that we were so lucky we had a driver so we could just sit back and soak it all in. No one wanted to close their eyes for fear they would miss something. So many memories…and experiences.

'Firstly my thanks for the "magic carpet ride" through Morocco, have so many memories and stories to relate to family and friends, who seem quite surprised and envious that I chose this mystical country to visit. The hotels were all first class with excellent rooms and friendly staff.’ Marina, Morocco 2011

‘I had an absolutely wonderful time. I'm glad I went with you. The group was wonderful and we did have some laughs. I was glad to meet up with some old friends and make some new ones. Hopefully I will see some of them again next year either in the Netherlands or South Africa. I thought all the hotels were wonderful. My room in every case was great. I had wonderful views, excellent service, great beds and quiet rooms. I think this is why I would never hesitate to recommend your tours to anyone and can personally vouch for the quality and high standards you set for all aspects of your tours.’ Lynda, Morocco 2011

‘I would certainly recommend this tour to others’ I've been on many trips of this nature and applaud you for putting together a great "adventure" -- perhaps a wee bit ambitious, but as I said before, wouldn't have missed it for the world! Thank you for all your efforts on our behalf’ J. Barbara, Morocco 2011

‘It was a spectacular trip that remains in many wonderful memories. Just wanted to thank you again for such a spectacular trip! It was exceptional: the food, the hotels, the scenery, the shopping, the Moroccan people and my co-travelers. I can't thank you enough for such a wonderful, fantasy tour!’ Rochelle, Morocco 2011
