first we spoke to Lahcen to organise our trip to morocco, he was super helpful and understanding to our needs. he is knowledgeable and know the country by heart. spent 10 days with them and no issues at all, everything was above our expectations. happy to find them. thank you Lahcen

Ali was excellent. Every nook and cranny of the souks and city was second nature to him. We'd wandered the old medina narrow streets and the new city that look as amazing as the old one, on a lot occasions and he showed us things we'd never seen before. Highly recommended!

The Moroccan Pottery Workshop was a delightful journey into the world of traditional craftsmanship. The hands-on experience with clay, guided by skilled artisans, allowed us to create our own unique pieces. The workshop seamlessly blended creativity with cultural immersion, providing insights into the art's rich history. The welcoming atmosphere and the joy of crafting something with my own hands made this experience truly special. A must-try for those seeking a meaningful and artistic encounter with Moroccan culture!

The Islamic Calligraphy Workshop was an amazing experience! The instructor's passion and expertise made learning the art form enjoyable. We explored various scripts, and the hands-on practice with traditional tools provided an authentic touch. The workshop is perfect for anyone interested in Islamic art

I recently embarked on the "Hollywood of Morocco" day trip to Ouarzazate and Ait Benhaddou, and it was an extraordinary adventure that exceeded my expectations.

I had a trip of a lifetime with them. It was really a pleasure to deal with Lahncen and his team who are really passionate about Morocco, and are eager to show the true and the most beautiful colors of it. Strongly recommend them

This was an unforgettable experience!! Do it. You get a long ride with professional guides. You stop for tea and take pics.

This was a stop on our 10-day bus tour of Morocco, and it was a highlight. A UNESCO world heritage site, this is one of the largest kasbahs in Morocco, a virtual rabbit warren of red clay residences and colurful shops (you will not be harassed). The crenellated towers are a sight to behold, and the view from the top of the hill of the town and the Atlas mountains is breathtaking. Many films, including Lawrence of Arabia and Gladiator, have been shot here for good reason. We lingered in the actual arena where Maximus fights his first gladiatorial duel for Proximus. Wonderful experience.

We booked a private car and guide. The price was a bit steep but we had an excellent English-speaking driver who told us a great deal about life in Morocco. We were met by a guide who also spoke English and viewed the falls from the top. We then moved slowly down past souk-type stalls which were mostly in the shade (the temperature was 30C). We stopped half-way down and sat in a big, clean restaurant overlooking the waterfalls and had kebab and chips and fruit included in the tour price). The toilets were clean. We could have gone to the bottom and had a ride in a punt to the waterfalls, but were not mobile enough. The extra cost was worth it as we were able to rely on both the guide and the driver if the walking got too difficult. The mini buses were ideal for younger, fitter tourists, but we recommend private tours for those who are a bit challenged.

Our group of 20 took a pottery class with Karimah and her sisters. Karimah is a seriously talented artist, and it was such a treat to learn from her. She’s extremely patient, thorough with her demonstrations, and very supportive when you needed help. Her sisters also helped us make our small masterpieces and served all of us some delicious Moroccan-style tea. They all got the energy in the room flowing with great vibes. It was an excellent way to get our creative juices flowing while learning and supporting women artist.

Alternative Morocco is the company to work with if visiting Morocco. Lahcen is accessible and incredible to work with. When he found it difficult to get ahold of our trip coordinator while we were in Marrakech, he used his problem-solving skills and bought our coordinator a sim card so she could more easily navigate the city. We traveled to Morocco with a group of 20 fellow university students. Our group coordinator requested curated experiences exploring themes of entrepreneurship and post-colonial life in Marrakech. There were two wonderful activities that Alternative Morocco organized for us based on these requests. The first was a walking tour of some of Marrakech’s most important spots to visit - the Jemaa Al-Fna market and the Madrassa of Marrakech. Ismail, our amazing local tour guide, lead the tour beautifully in a way that captured the history behind certain market traditions and the influences behind them. The descriptions were elaborate and the tour itself was interactive as we spoke with locals about their stories as well as entrepreneurship in Morocco. Would recommend these activities and Alternative Morocco for your next trip to the country.

the trip was really nice, even though the journey was long the Alas Mountains' landscapes are amazing. Ait Benhaddou Kasbah is the highlight of the trip, our guide was super friendly and shared with us his knowledge of the Berbers culture and history. everything was as described. thank you.

The landscapes are breathtaking, starting from the High Atlas Mountains with stops in panoramic views and Berber villages all along the way , and then watching the landscape changes to drier and more desertic. Arriving to kasbah ait benhaddou we had a walking tour and learned about the history of the location and the Berber culture. Long drive but every minute is very interesting. Thanks to the organiser🙏🏽

Well spent money! I have learned how to make my own cup,where I have my morning coffee :) Very fun and relaxing activity, and well organized. Will come back

The journey started with our driver picking us from our Riad, the journey it self was a bit long but very interesting, you will stop to see the famous Goats climbing Argan trees, as well you will visit a women run argan cooperative before arriving to amazing essaouira. After arriving to essaouira you will a free time to visit the small old city and chill on the beach, or simply contact the agency if you would like to have a guide booked for you to show you around.
