Carpets are woven in an intricate fashion and leaned against old city walls. Picturesque nods to the French history of the country linger along the parapets of the marketplace. The vibrant history of an old desert-trading town continues in the shade of the fortress. This 8-day discover Morocco tour includes Marrakech, Ouarzazate, Sahara desert & Todra Gorge.

Fantastic service and experience from start to finish

11-May-2023

We used Nomadic for a company incentive trip to Marrakech. The itinerary was tailor-made for us and was absolutely fantastic. Their knowledge of the destination, what to do and suggestions were just brilliant and our local guide, Brahim made the trip even better!.

Fantastic knowledge, excellent service and professionalism.

Nomadic Tour employed a local guide who organized and stayed with the group throughout the complete trip. He had good relationships with the hotels and restaurants that ensured a predictable, quality experience. He initiated different conversations to widen our overall country impression, and promptly followed up on everyone's needs. The operator was responsive in responding to our inquiries prior to the tour, and everything flowed seamlessly and predictably

Because they specialize in Morocco I would definitely recommend Nomadic Tours, from value for money to their knowledge of the country and caring for their travellers.
