Reviews

“WOW. I had no idea I’d fall in love with Morocco so easily, and want to thank Ismail for making this a trip I’ll never forget. We originally were going to do a quick 2-day excursion, but Ismail created a 5-days itinerary with a pick-up and drop-off at the airport that we couldn’t resist. He went out of his way to come to Casablanca to pick us up in order to make the travel easier for us. We saw the most incredible sunset on our way to Marrakech. Ismail saw my friends and I awing over the sunset, so he stopped to allow us to take pictures and enjoy the moment. Once in Marrakech, we went to an incredible Riad where we had our first taste of Moroccan food. Delicious! Early the next morning we got to see the sights of Marrakech before leaving for the Atlas Mountains. Unbelievable mountains. Every picture we took looked fake. Along the way to our next destination, we saw the famous Kasbah ait Ben Haddou. After a long day of exploring we stayed in a Riad with the most beautiful pool where we drank Moroccan wine and enjoyed the luxury of a Las Vegas poolside in the Desert.”
“Morocco was a wonderful experience for us with Camel Excursions, all the riad that was included were nice and pretty, the food they provide us was good too. Since me and my friend are both girls, we feel really insecure to come to Morocco ourselves, but our guide Mohammed is a really nice person, he makes us feels really safe in Morocco. The experience of Sahara was a highlight in our trip, the stars were so pretty and our camp is nice and comfy. Love this trip and will come back to Morocco with Camel excursions again!”

Some places to see while doing our 5 days tour Fes to Marrakech via desert

Madrasa

Madrasa is the Arabic name for any form of educational institution, secular or religious (of any religion), for primary or secondary education. Madrasah arifah, medresa, madrassa, madraza, medrese, and other transliterations exist. Outside the Arab world, the term usually refers to a specific type of religious school or college for the study of Islam, however this is not always the only subject studied.

In an architectural and historical context, the phrase mainly refers to a type of historical Muslim institution that primarily taught Islamic law and jurisprudence (fiqh), as well as other disciplines on occasion. Nizam al-Mulk, a vizier of the Seljuks in the 11th century, is largely credited with founding the first network of formal madrasas in Iran, Mesopotamia, and Khorasan. Over the next few centuries, the construction of madrasas spread over most of the Muslim world, generally following similar architectural forms.

The Middle Atlas

The Middle Atlas is a Moroccan mountain range. It is part of the Atlas mountain range, a mountainous region covering more than 100,000 km2 and accounting for 15% of the country’s landmass. The Middle Atlas is the northernmost and second highest of Morocco’s three main Atlas Mountain chains. The High Atlas lies to the south, split by the rivers Moulouya and Um Er-Rbiâ. The Middle Atlas are the westernmost extremity of a huge plateaued basin that extends eastward into Algeria and is limited to the north by the Tell Atlas and to the south by the Saharan Atlas, both of which are mostly in Algeria. The Rif Mountains, located north of the Middle Atlas and separated by the Sebou River, are an extension of the Baetic System, which includes the Sierra Nevada in southern Spain. The Sebou basin is not only the key transportation route between Atlantic and Mediterranean Morocco, but it is also the primary agricultural zone of the country, watered by the Middle Atlas range.
