Be inspired by Ait Benhaddou, a beautifully preserved Kasbah that's a UNESCO World Heritage site, or walk in the starry path of celebrities by taking a tour of one of Ouarzazate's two movie studios. Tour the surrounding dunes on camel-back, or simply bask in the quiet bustle of the bargaining sessions at local markets.

It’s my first trip to south-east of morocco and I am blown away by all the landscapes ,the mountains, the view and the freshness of the air, and it was a calming weather ,especially in Tinghir region , it’s my favourite town from my trip . I really enjoyed my time there , It gave me the joy of travelling and exploring new places, I would describe it as an inspiring tourist region which worth the detour. I got the chance to interact with the villagers and they were nice to me, and very helpful and smiling. The places I visited: khemiss dades, valley of dades, valley of megoun, valley of birds, boumalne, Sekoura, Kelaat Mgouna, ouarzazat, kasbah ait benhadou, dades canyons (an hour and a half ride), monkey pastes, monkey fingers, Tisdrin, Valley Ighil Mgouna, Kasbah Itran, kasbah amridil, ...

Wanderlust helped my family and I to plan a multi week tour through Morocco, including stays in Tangier, Fes, Chefchaouen, Marrakech, Essaouira, and others. Ibrahim, our driver and primary guide, helped us get throughout the country and took spectacular care of us like we were his own family, to include my toddler who began waking up every day asking to "Ride in the bus with Mr Ibrahim". Megan proposed a great itinerary, which allowed us to have a relaxing family adventure. Thank you for such a memorable time!

We booked a 3 day tour to the Sahara , We are two girls and felt extremely safe the entire time.we have the most incredible stay in morocco due to this tour it was completely over our expectations ! Jamal our tour guide and Omar, our driver were the best! They were both so nice and were so informative explaining all the sights along the way. All the towns we passed through were so beautiful but my favourite part of the whole trip was the desert. We went to Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi Dunes and got to spend a night in tents in the Sahara Desert! We got to ride a camel to the desert camp and that was the funnest experience. All the riads we stayed in and the restaurants were fabulous choices. I highly recommend booking a tour with this company MCL . Jamal was so helpful in planning the whole experience and was always readily available on whats app. We truly cannot wait to go back to Morocco.

This is just the worst experience ever! I booked a trip, and instantly contacted the organizers about details of the trip. They did not answer me for 3 days. And only after I reminded several times and started to call them, they decided to tell me that my trip is cancelled. At it is the day before the start. Very nice. Not to mention that I booked a hotel in Marrakech, and transportation to Marrakech from Agadir (bc I live in Agadir) - and the day before the date everything is non-refundable. If I got the info earlier, I could have cancelled my hotel for free. Communication is like "Yes, we cancel your trip. We have no control about it." Like who has control over it? Nobody apologized not for the late response (I waited for 3 days and reminded several times, because panicked that nobody will pick me up), not for the late cancellation. Only when I mentioned that it would be nice that you at least apologize, they did it. Thank you, but when somebody asks you for sorry, it is a signal that you should have done it earlier. I understand that now is covid and everything, but this bad review is about communication, and I think that it is a job of the organizators to ORGANIZE everything, and solve the problems when they arise. You do not just throw cancellation a day before the trip in your customer, and do not answer the phone. Terrible. Just terrible.

We had an absolutely brilliant tour with Adil. He arrived at our accommodation and asked what we were most interested to see. After discussing this and confirming we did not want a shopping tour, we headed off. Adil is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Fez and Morocco. He took us to the key sites and around the Medina, explaining things as we went, answering our questions and discussing Moroccan life and culture. He put us at ease in the complicated and bustling streets of the Medina and gave us a list of things not to miss after the tour. Our tour with him was absolutely excellent. It is such a nice introduction to Fez and the key sites around the Medina, getting local insight and a history lesson, without worrying about getting lost or being touted by shop keeps. Highly recommend it and sincere thanks to Adil. He was fantastic.

Worst service and agency EVER !! I booked a one day trip to Essaouira with this agency 14 days ago, they confirmed with me the availability, I gave them all the information needed and confirmed the pick up location. I contacted them 2 days and 1 day before the trip to re-confim and they confirmed I also asked about another contact number I can call in case they don’t show up and never got the number, I was totally right because they never showed up !!! How unprofessional and disrespectful is this ?? no one showing up, no one answering my calls nor my messages ?? Worst thing is that they were online, read the messages I sent right in the moment in WhatsApp and didn’t have enough respect to say anything. I just don’t understand why would you confirm and re-confirm an activity and just never show up nor give an explanation?? Really shame on you !! I was planning for this trip for so long and being treated this way was definitely the worst service ever. So if you want to save your time and holidays plans never book anything with the agency!!
