- 791lukeb0 contributionsThanks Mohamed, you are a super guide!Mohamed Rachyd is a super guide, he took us around Marrakech, showing us and explaining both the most popular monuments and places and the most secret and authentic ones. He has a profound knowledge of Morocco's culture and history and passed it on to us with enthusiasm throuout the visit of the Medina we had with him. He 's been very helpful and very discreet during the whole day and he made us fall in love with Marrakech so much that we preferred to stay an extra day to see all the places that he recommended to us. He also moves at ease within the markets and souks of Marrakech as he knows everything and everyone! We can't wait returning to Morocco and organize a desert tour with him.

- tripa5060 contributionsA five star tour from Casablanca!!!We chose Silence of Morocco for our 10 days tour from Casablanca. Our driver and tour guide, Moha, was always available and very kind for all our needs. We traveled in November, the days were sunny and pleasant. All hotels and riads were clean and respectful of anti-covid19 hygiene measures. It was a perfect tour. The guides who accompanied us in the visit of the city of Fez and Marrakech were very professional. Throughout the trip, we were able to experience true Moroccan hospitality. Unique and unforgettable experiences: quad activity, camel ride, night in the desert camp. We are really satisfied with the organization of the whole tour. We recommend Silence of Morocco because everything was perfect.Written 2 February 2022
- federicagA1509XC0 contributionsWonderful MaroccoMy friend and I, took a tour from Marrakech to Fes. It was a very interesting tour. We liked the city of Meknes, the smallest of the imperial cities, without chaos and with a lot of history. The experience in the desert tent camp was very amazing. In about a week, we had the opportunity to see very different landscapes, historic cities, oases, valley (such as the beautiful Ziz Valley), the desert and ancient Berber villages. We definitely recommend Silence of Morocco, Mohamed was very kind and helpful throughout the trip.Written 1 November 2021
- Rangy750 contributionsAmazing tourI traveled for two weeks in September. Everything was perfectly organized. I had already been to Morocco, so I was looking for an alternative tour, to see different places and have new experiences. The tour started from Marrakech, I had already visited the city on a previous trip, so I asked to include in the tour a visit to the Tinmal Mosque, a non-touristy but really impressive mosque. I visited the coast from Essaouira to Sidi Ifni. Along the coast there are many coastal villages where you can relax. I spent a night in the desert and, in the morning, I saw a spectacular sunrise. I visited the Tafraout area, where you can visit the Painted Rocks, a work by a Belgian artist and the rock called Napoleon's Hat. I went trekking with the mule in the Imlil area and had the pleasure of having lunch at the home of a Berber family. Near Ouarzazate, I had the experience of horseback riding until sunset. I can say that everything was perfect. I definitely recommend Silence of Morocco for a Morocco tour, because Mohamed is really professional and knows his work well; he racommended many places to visit and I can say that I am really satisfied.Written 21 October 2021

Incredible experience with Mohamed Bouttar, super attentive, a wonderful and super nice person. Private excursion to Essaouira, it is a beautiful and very calm city. We walked around the town ending up in the market where you choose the fish you want and they make it for you on the spot. Later we went to the beach where you can ride a horse or quad. , an unforgettable experience to repeat, totally recommended

Perfect experience! Doud was fantastic, punctual and professional. His kindness was contagious. Also beautiful experience for dinner in the desert with camel ride. It was my friend's 50th and he organized a show just for her and bought a delicious birthday cake complete with best wishes in Italian written on the cake. Thanks again Silence of Morocco, we'll see you again soon!

We explored the city of Marrakech with our guide Mohamed.
An entire day full immersion among the wonders to be discovered hidden among the souks, Bahia palace, the Ben Youssef Madrasa, the small alleys of the Medina and the most iconic corners of the country.
Thanks to him, we were able to learn about the history, traditions and culture of Marrakech. Mohamed turned out to be very well prepared, truly an expert, kind, helpful, we will take with us a wonderful memory, it couldn't have been better.
