The Worst

This was horrible. $200 a head plus $70 for children to see a synagogue I could walk into and a half baked castle that cost additional to view. Then they direct you to a pharmacy which has nothing to do with any form of Judaism. I’m sure there was a kick back involved on the whole the worst experience on a fabulous trip

Hi Miss Jill ! Your feedback is not a surprise for us . I was expecting 0 🌟 star , so thanks for being generous to our company which provided the following services: 1/ A luxurious new 17 seats Sprinter Mercedes with a private driver , all types of soft drinks and chocolate bars for your kids. 2/ Mr Rachid , your private national certified tour guide, with great reviews and knowledge about Moroccan history and Jewish heritage. He’s an expert famous for groups from Israel and other countries. 3/ I’ve lost all your payment as I was generous to pay for your mistake as you are staying in a different location from the one provided: Our driver had been 32 kilometres far from Marrakech which is out of the circle ⭕️ allowed by our system. I had ordered the driver to pick you up and paid for this . Then. , I’ve paid another time because he had come back to Marrakech to start driving to your new location that I had received from you at the starting time of the tour which had made us pay a full day service for the buses company. 4/ Because of your mistake , the guide had been paid for a full day tour ( double service) because you had started 2 hours later which had made him delegate his afternoon tour with other travellers. 5/ The pharmacy you had mentioned is within the souks which is part of the tour and the young girl and her mother insisted on the tour guide to guide her and assist her. This had made you angry because you have organised a shopping tour with that French illegal guide . 6 / It’s now , a high season and you had cancelled the first part of the group and I’ve still kept for you the same bus and service.s that are not paid because of your mistake of the tricky location. 64 kilometres for both ways. 7/ Price of services are fixed and all details including the itinerary are clear. If the illegal guides ( you know who I’m talking about) convinced you to cancel 1/2 of the group , and offered cheap prices or free service , keep in mind that they hustle you 100% when they take travellers ( far from the police 👮 undercover officers) to their friends ( black market) where they take big commissions that you had mentioned. Take care and safe travels to the great travellers who were very happy and friendly 😇 inside your group NB : We’ve avoided problems to the kind travellers as we did not call the police officers to the French illegal guide who had rushed the tour guide and your group to finish quickly and join her and the others to go shopping outside the souks

Learning about Jewish Marrakech.

It was very informative to learn about the centuries of Jewish residency in Marrakech. Now there are less than 100 Jews still living there, mostly older Jews. We had the opportunity to meet with two locals -- one was a textile manufacturer/distributor, and the other the Kosher butcher -- to hear about their lives and what it is like to live in Marrakech now. Hassan was a great gulide and offered many insights into the history and local culture.

Marrakech Jewish Heritage Tour

We had a wonderful day with our guide Hassan and driver Haitem. Besides being punctual, Hassan was well versed in providing us with a myriad of information on the Culture of Marrakech. He quickly adapted to our requested change in tour sites as we had seen two of them the previous day. His alternates choices were excellent and we especially appreciated not having to stand in long lines for entrance. Hassan made sure during the duration of our tour that we were satisfied with his choice prior to moving on to our next location. In addition, a diver was always available to move us to our next location. Having a private local guide and driver provided a much richer and relaxed experience.
