Private Tours. Enjoy a personalized vacation
What are the advantages?
- Choose who you travel with: Travel alone, as a couple or as a group of up to 9 people and they will be the only ones you share the experience with (it’s you, traveling with your own). In many tours the price per person is reduced the more you are!
- Choose your departure date: Most private tours have daily departures. Don’t you conform to the journey, let the journey conform to you.
- Organized and flexible: Everything is organized but when traveling privately, you don’t depend on strict schedules, providing agility and flexibility in visits.
- Customization and Attention: Being private, both guides and drivers give all their care and attention to you.
- Travel without worry: You have the advantages of a trip on your own but with the peace of mind that everything has been designed so you don’t miss anything. Your only concern is to enjoy the experience to the fullest.

Important remarks
- Morocco is a Muslim country and the month of Ramadan is of major significance to its residents. During Ramadan, entertainment and alcohol will be restricted in most of the country. The sale of alcohol will be restricted in many places, although some establishments will offer alcohol for sale to tourists. During this period, local businesses may also have shorter opening hours.
- The tours include cultural stops at local workshops so you can learn about the production of traditional crafts.
- Triple rooms in Africa are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- Please check which documents are required to enter the country.
- Accommodation will always be in riads, with the exception of Casablanca where accommodation will be in a hotel.
- The cost of the tickets provided according to the program, direct payment, is approximately 35 euros.
- The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.
- If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.
