5-Day Morocco Tour: Casablanca, Marrakech, Meknes, Fez and Rabat

Costa del Sol, Spain

My Rating
3 star rating: Worth doing

My Review

We were the only 2 english speaking tourists in our tour group of 10.The others were spainish speaking.We spent far too much time in the bus and not enough time in the towns of Marrakesh or Fez.We had local english speaking guides in each town which mean´t that we had a personalised tour. The hotel in Marrakesh was quite good the other 2 were not 4 star hotels. The food was quite good though.The extra nights entertainment were not very good and quite expensive. One was a horse show and the other was a dance show. Would do the same trip over 7 days to give more time in the cities

My Rating
2 star rating: It was OK, but could have been better

My Review

Our bus was full and very noisy with teenagers so we had trouble hearing the guide.I would suggest much smaller groups.Ours had about 40.Our pickup time was changed at the last minute by more than an hour.Luckily we checked the day before.Basically there´s only shopping after you see the monkeys.A long day

This tour was fabulous. Easy to find our friendly guide at the Tronchetto. The trip up the mountains was relaxing. Cortina was picturesque and the scenery in the area was breathtaking.

5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
Three fabulous, completely different towns, each one worth visiting. Finishing with a wine tasting our guide was local and provided lots of interesting information. Couldn't possibly have seen so much in a day on our own. Highly recommend this trip.

Versailles and Giverny Day Trip

Paris, France

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
Monet's garden was lovely, the lily pond was exactly as I imagined. Versailles was amazing and crowded. Our very informative guide showed us the highlights of both attractions without feeling rushed. Lunch was just OK. Great way to see both places in one day.
