Morocco Tours from Costa del Sol

This tour was amazing!! From the ferry ride to the walking through the streets and shops to the dromeda ride. The only thing I would have liked to see more of was other areas of Tangier while walking. The bus tour was a bit limiting. In addition, I would have liked more time in the shops. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like to get a taste of Morocco while in Spain.

I can not say enough about this tour. We loved every minute of it even though the day started in the pouring rain. It eventually cleared up later and so upon our return we could get pictures. The guide was good and the whole Morocco experience was memorable . We loved riding the camels and visiting the old city. The restaurant was fantastic with the décor and musicians. We loved it. The Carpet factory was memorable with the presentation of how they are made. The tour was well organized and took in the perfect things of the city. We bought a carpet and were very excited that there was a tour that helped us experience a bit of morocco. Very well done.

The tour was informative, gave us plenty of time to see the Alhambra Palace and Generalife Gardens. Wonderful day. However, the trip to Morocco was unsettling. The wait for the ferry was long, the walk through the town was rushed. For many in the group, it was scary with too many pushy Moroccans trying to sell things. We were made to feel that the only reason we were there was to spend money. The camel stop and snake charmer were a tourist gig. The one good thing was the meal and the restaurant music. I had thought we would see a building and learn something about the culture that didn't happen. Overall, a disappointing day though I am glad I went.

The tour was well planned and organized. The guides were knowledgable and friendly. Beware of the street vendors. After lunch you are brought to a little square where the street peddlers literally overwhelm you. It was unnerving. The trip was fun but the street peddlers need to be managed better.

We had a great tour and Pedro was a terrific tour guide. The bus picked up in La Cala de Mijas about 10 minutes from our apartment. Tangiers is quite exotic. However, pay heed to other reviews about the aggressiveness of the street hawkers in Tangiers. It is true. We loved the restaurant where we stopped for lunch. This trip was one of the highlights of our vacation.

I found the trip well worth the money and time. I did however found it very overwhelming with all the people trying to sell you things on the streets. They didn't take no for an answer. There were times I had 4-5 people surrounding me and it made me very nervous. The experience was good though. Weather was great and so was the food. I had great company and met a lot of new people. The guides were very informative. I would not have traveled there without a guide, though I think the people saw a travel group and thought sales!!!!

This tour was fantastic. Being in a group of 3 girls age 19-21 we definitely appreciated having a guide to take us around. We wouldn't have had a clue on our own and wouldn't have necessarily wanted to. That being said, Pedro our guide sorted everything out for us in terms of "customs" and lunch and whatnot. It was very well organized and very interesting for all ages. It moves pretty quickly so if you need a little longer to get from place to place you might want to be aware that the walking parts go fairly quickly as you have specific time slots at all the little demonstrations. My only complaint was the length. I came from the first stop in Malaga so I was expecting the full 13 hours, but it was probably closer to 15 hours by the time we got back to Malaga. There was a lot of waiting around for people to catch up with the group everywhere we went which in the end added on about 2 hours. That was frustrating as we were tired and ready to be back (and 15 hours is a long day when you've been up since 3 am), but other than that, a very good tour!

I booked Malaga super saver. Unfortunately it was only Granada trip, because there was no trip to Marocco. When we arrived at the port there was no boat to Tanger. I think that it was a big mistake of the company because they didn` t check in advance and we made unuseless trip to the border and wasted the day . Several days before the trip the weather forecast had predicted a wind. So in Granada everything was O.K.

The trip to Morocco was smooth sailing all the way with Viator handling all the details. Although we had a rental car for a week, we appreciated the driver being able to view the surroundings as we drove through southern Spain, It would have been much appreciated if we were given information on the areas we drove through, but that was not the case. The bus tour of Tangiers was informative and brought us to a high point in the city where we had a fun time interacting with 2 baby camels - adorable is the only word for them! The camel "ride" for some amounted to nothing more than mounting, having the camel stand up fully, and then dismounting after the camel folded its legs. No ride at all for our friend, but then the price was only a Euro for the owner. The lunch was bountiful enough, and we enjoyed most of it. However, we noticed that unfortunately this was not a universal experience. In addition, skip the wine; while far from a connoisseur, I could not drink it even though it was an extra cost. The live musical entertainment throughout the meal was a nice touch.
The walk around the Kasbah was fascinating. A survival tip: don't make eye contact with the street hawkers pursuing your tour group unless you are really interested in what they are selling, or they will hound you without mercy. The talk on Moroccan handmade rugs was interesting, as we noted the differences between their methods and those used in Turkey. However, as expected, it concluded with the usual sales pitch, and with a sales person apparently dedicated to us personally, who followed us down all 3 floors of merchandise until we finally tore ourselves free. 90% of our tour group was already on the trail of the next shop and sales pitch for natural healing products. Exactly 15 minutes were allocated for independent shopping outside the rug/multiproduct enterprise - our main criticism of this tour. A second suggestion would be to upgrade the luncheon, and provide an alternative vegetarian meal.

The Granada tour was an excellent opportunity to experience the cultural milieu and history of the Alhambra. The tour guides from the Julia's were very professional and knowledgeable. I'll give a shout-out to Pedro Jimenez the Spanish guide for the Morocco tour and his counterpart in Morocco, Hassan. Overall a great experience.

This can be a great way to see a little taste of Morocco if you don't have much time. However, be aware that most of the trip is spent with people trying to sell you something. First you go to a place to do camel rides (which you pay for), then a walk around the old city (where street vendors know you are coming and will aggressively follow you), then to a rug seller for an extended pitch, then for a spice shop where you will be sold spices and oils. If you are interested in buying or good at saying no, it can be a fun little peek at Morocco. If you're on a budget or don't like aggressive salesmen, this trip isn't for you. Also, you will not be back to Malaga by 6pm. You'll return by 7pm at the earliest.

Coacht trip and boat criuse were phantastic. The Marroquean guide was a wise man- very recommendable. For me the trip was too commercial, Prices in Tanger were defintely too high, I would have liked to have lunch amongst local people, not in a seperate restaurant. Old town tour was very interesting, Camel riding was disappointing, as the animals were in very bad conditions and had babies. I was dying to do a camel ride, but under those circumstances I just took some photos...

The tour was good. A lot of time on the bus picking up at hotels but I don't know how that is to be avoided. Be prepared for many people hawking their wares. Can be a little overwhelming. The lunch was fun. Food was good and entertainment also. A small glimpse of Morocco.

The tour to Morocco was good, but we thought it was a english speaking tour and it was in Spanish mostly, with translation in english. Also the bus ride was very long coming back, but bus was comfortable and clean. It was sad that we could not see the largest mosque in Marrakech, I think time should have been allocated to view at least one mosque in Morroco.
