(No Ratings Yet)
Loading ...Morocco is an enchanting region full of ancestral customs and historical traditions that are ever present in modern life. There are vibrant cities such as Fez and Marrakesh where current traditional flair intermixes with historical attributes. There are also quaint little villages tucked quietly off the beaten path. Here, life tends to follow a slower pace. Many are Berber villages that continue day to day living without the modern conveniences of which we have become accustomed to in life. One of the greatest ways to truly soak in all the sights and sounds that Morocco has to offer is through a guided private Morocco tour. Tour guides are experienced travelers who are familiar with the native language and customs in these smaller towns. The Morocco tour operator will show travelers a new side of Morocco that can not be found in a brochure or commercial.
Morocco Tour Hotspots
A private Morocco tour can show travelers a taste of luxury alongside a more rugged lifestyle adventure in one tour. There are opportunities presented to explore Imperial Cities or trek Morocco on camel back. Spend a night underneath the glistening Morocco starry sky in the Sahara Desert. Enjoy the sunshine lounging on the beach or trek through the mountains for an unforgettable Moroccan holiday experience.
The beautiful thing about a private Morocco tour is that it is completely customizable by the participants. Tour operators stand ready and willing to take travelers to the sights and sounds of Morocco that they personally would like to see. More times than not, this private tour leads to the off beaten pathways and trails where authentic Moroccan living plays out each day.
Start a private Morocco tour exploring the wonders of Fez. This Imperial City features various historical attributes of Moroccan culture. Take a look at the beauty of the Kairouine Mosque from the outside. Muslim custom deems that only Muslims are allowed to enter into Mosques however. Do not take offense to a private tour guide being unable to take travelers inside the Mosque. They are simply respecting Muslim culture.
Let the Morocco tour operator lead the tour towards the Ziz Valley oasis. Here the majestic Sahara Desert will unfold before the eyes. Watch and learn as the tour operator paves the way towards agricultural lifestyles that blanket this region of Morocco. Enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch in the private home of the tour operator. It will seem as if travelers are welcomed into the home of a good friend to enjoy a delectable meal and animated conversation around the dinner table.
Ask a private Morocco tour operator to show the way into the Dades Gorge. Here a fun-filled day of rock climbing awaits travelers. Make a stop at the base of the rocks to be properly fitted for climbing gear. Let the tour operator interact with the climbing guides in native language to ensure all necessary climbing gear components are received. Once properly fitted for climbing gear, let the adventure begin.
If rock climbing is not something of interest, ask a private tour operator to point out the pathways leading around the rock climbing area. This is ideal territory for a great day of hiking in Morocco. Look and listen as the tour operator points out how the Todra Gorge and Dades Gorge rock formations mimic that of monkey paws.
Spend the day exploring Moroccan history at the UNESCO World Heritage site that can be found in Ait Ben Haddou. Private tour guides will take travelers behind the scenes of blockbuster Hollywood movie films such as The Mummy and Gladiator. At the end of the day, rest and relax in a heritage site at the old medina. As the day comes to a close, animated street performers take to the streets and entertain well into the midnight hours.
A private Morocco holiday continues in the vibrant city of Marrakesh. Destination points of interest here include Koubba Baadiyn and Ali ben Youssef Koranic School. Visit the Saadian Tombs or walk through the souk to find that perfect Moroccan trinket or treasure to bring back home. Allow the private tour operator to venture onto a trekking path in the High Atlas Mountains for a top notch view of Morocco. The trek comes to an end in a quaint authentic Berber village. Here weary hikers can relax and enjoy a beverage of mint tea with a local family. Those that do not wish to make the High Atlas Mountains trek are more than welcome to enjoy the afternoon with a local family. Come upon one by invitation or let the personal tour guide make an introduction to someone already known.
The beauty of a private Morocco tour is seeing parts of Morocco that are unknown or missed by the common traveler. It presents the opportunity to explore those quaint areas of Morocco that are not discussed on travel websites or in brochures.
