Morocco from North to South
Morocco North and South: Mountain Villages and Ancient Kasbahs
Julie and Edward, TX, United States, Jan 2026
Touring Morocco itself was a wonderful experience and the two guides, Sofia and Rachid were both extraordinary. There were disappointments with some of GAdventures administrative and tour processes. Ours was a "Geluxe" tour yet you had to buy your own water at the included meals is one example. I've been on many tours with various companies and never read more not had water provide during the meals, especially in a country where they tell you not to drink the tap water.
Morocco with a view
New Year's in Morocco
Katherine, MD, United States, Dec 2025
Morocco has a lot to offer. The people are wonderful, the scenery was just stunning. We had sunshine, snow, wind and a little rain and was even blessed with a rainbow in the desert. I can’t say enough about our guide Omar. He was able to answer all of our questions, he treated us to local music and displayed his musical talents. If there was any read more issues he was always there to fix them. It was a great trip.
Intrepid Morocco
Morocco Highlights
Lorraine , NSW, Australia, Nov 2025
Overall positive experience with destinations well chosen. Unfortunately bus & accommodation left a lot to be desired, with many of group becoming ill as bus ventilation was non-existent so viruses spread rapidly. Hotel beds were invariably hard & uncomfortable, while heating was usually non operational. Home cooked food was special as it gave authenticity read more to Moroccan experience. Sahara camel ride at dawn was highlight, though tent accommodation was freezing overnight.
Well led tour by our trusty tour guide Jonathan Mueller
Exploring South Africa, Victoria Falls & Botswana
Leone, NSW, Australia, Nov 2025
We felt very safe and well managed on our trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Our only disappointment was the lack of animals, in particular in Pilanesburg N Park. Having 5 safaris there was too many for such a poorly maintained road system. We all struggled with how rough the tracks were and the lack of animal sightings didn't help. The lodge read more was also not to our taste - too snooty. The Wallow Lodge and Chobi lodge were much better for our tastes. I will go back and do at least one more safari trip but will research the parks being offered in much greater detail before committing.
Comprehensive tour of Morroco
Morocco Encompassed
Ron, VIC, Australia, Nov 2025
The trip was actually two combined. North Morroco then longer south and Central with different tour leader. First was the maximum of 16 people and no more joined for the second after seven lefy so nine people . I am so glad I did the entire tour as it include camping in the desert which was real highlight. Lots great experiences throughout.
Great way to see both Senegal and The Gambia
Senegal & The Gambia
Ron, VIC, Australia, Oct 2025
Was a great trip. Some accommodation very simple but lots of great experiences including sleeping on deck of a river boat. Most of my party of ten were keen bird watchers who were very happy. First time I had taken an Encounter trip but would certainly do another. Appreciate the wonderful assistance of Tracey through the entire booking process.
