Tailormade Tours - Morocco

A well-established tour operator based in Marrakech who can organise bespoke trips to cities, mountains, desert and coast

There are few countries in the world which offer such a variety of sights and experiences as Morocco. From the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountains to the rolling sand dunes of the Sahara, from the kite-surfing hotspots of the Atlantic coast to the quasi-Biblical film sets of Ait Ben Haddou, from the utter peace of a remote Berber mud hamlet to the Islamic splendour of the imperial medinas of Fes and Marrakech... it really is a case of "so much to see, so little time to see it"!

Which is where an experienced Morocco-based ground operator can prove invaluable. If you're looking for an exciting itinerary - one which really gets under the skin of this bewitching land, which you can tweak to meet your particular interests, or even custom-build from scratch - and you want to spend minimum time fretting about route-finding, hotel availability, vehicle reliability and the notorious faux guides, then booking through our chosen partner will pay dividends.

We chose to work with Mountain Voyage Morocco because they have a great track record - founder Mike McHugo has been creating bespoke trips through their sister property Kasbah du Toubkal since 1978 - as well as excellent local knowledge: Mike, his brother Chris and their Operations Director John Horne are based in Marrakech and, between the 3 of them, they have over 100 years' experience in Morocco! They understand the needs of service-orientated, time-pressured travellers from around the world, and can tailor-make an individualised itinerary to suit your needs, interests and budget.

Why we chose this partner

• Air-conditioned vehicles (mostly 4x4s) with careful drivers, most of whom speak English and/or French
• State-licensed guides who know their stuff, speak good English and will quickly dispatch unwanted touts and scammers
• An excellent knowledge of Moroccan hotels, kasbahs and riads, centred around (but not limited to) those selected and reviewed by i-escape
• Equally confident arranging camel treks through the palmeraie, 4x4 adventures in the dunes, expert tours of Roman Volubilis or shopping guides for the souks of Marrakech
• We were impressed with their social and eco conscience (more)
