It was the best choice we could have made. It was an incredible and unforgettable experience. Said is very professional and exceedingly knowledgeable about Morocco – its history, geography, politics, people – and eager to share this knowledge if you show an interest. It was a pleasure spending time with him and learning about his wonderful country. I would highly recommend Open Doors Morocco to everyone wishing a true Moroccan experience.

I cannot say enough about how Said [our guide] made our visit to Morocco so special His style in how he presented every new venue to us was a much anticipated surprise around every corner. The trip could not have been better and I must say that he made it one of the best I have ever experienced.

Our day with Mustapha Quassi was beyond imagination… what a beautiful experience with him in his beautiful home where he shared his rich culture with us! We enjoyed making tagine together, touring his home with the pottery, weavings, rugs, tapestry and musical instruments which he played for us. My mind goes back to this day often with a gentle gratefulness to Mustapha for all he shared! I am much richer in spirit for this once in a lifetime experience! Thank you so much!

From the 4×4 (which had wifi!) to the desert camp accommodations, everything was perfect.

I will never forget listening to them sing and play under the full moon in the Sahara. It was a magical night. Thank you to Nancy, Habib, Ali & Mostapha for helping to make my first visit to Morocco such a special experience. I will be back and will certainly book another tour with them again.

I have been on guided tours in Morocco before, so I know that Said is not your usual guide. You may think that 8 days with a stranger in a Toyota Land Cruiser is a bit much – but it isn’t. At all. Said has an ability to read situations, and a cross cultural social intelligence that is quite amazing, and we really enjoyed his company and everything we learned from him. After a few days Said knew what  we liked to eat, what kind of coffee we drank the kind of black dried olives that we liked so much, and we often left the ordering to him because we always ate well at the little local places he found. All children our boys’ ages should be let loose in a giant sandbox once in awhile. Being all alone in a camp like that, under the stars, is fantastic.

One last word – some might worry about travels with children in Morocco. There is absolutely no need for that with Said along. This is how safe it is: When we were in Merzouga we were having a coffee and a talk by the pool, when Said had to go off on an errand in town. Our youngest is 6 and asked if he could come – he doesn’t speak a word of english or any other language that he can communicate with Said in. So there is this bearded man with a turban and traditional dress – but he is so kind and has such a nice personality that a little boy instinctively likes him and wants to come along with him. Communication is more than language. So off they went, those two. We never ever had to worry about anything – at all – during that trip. Can’t recommend ODM enough.

Their website promises a transformative experience and I can attest to the truth of this claim. The care that this company takes in preparing customized itineraries that accommodate all manner of needs/desires (my partner is an above-knee amputee) is impressive, and resulted in great experiences for us.

We can’t say enough good things about Said, who showed us so many things we would have missed on our own, and who was generous with his knowledge of culture, customs, and current affairs. Having fallen in love with this magical country, we are already thinking about returning. We’ll definitely use ODM to take us on further adventures and we’ll be recommending their services to all our friends.

Open Doors Morocco worked out perfectly for my family. We are well-traveled and love to travel on our own, but with an itinerary that involved a lot of driving and having two kids aged 11 and 9, we wanted relief from the strain of figuring out too many details.

I provided Nancy with all of our details and the itinerary I was interested in and she guided me along with what was feasible and what should be edited out due to distance, time constraints, and the level of interest for my young ones. She lived in Morocco and has children, so this combination of Moroccan knowledge and the understanding of the needs of family worked well for us. She also understands the North American perspective and what would be comfortable for us in terms of accommodation.

My father, my teenage daughter and I had an amazing experience in Morocco with Habib. I can’t imagine how we could have navigated Morocco without him! Habib was extremely professional yet genuinely engaging during our time with him. Habib was flexible with our itinerary and patient as we figured things out. My 13 year old daughter was treated with such care. Habib engaged her in conversation, opened doors for her and pointed things out along the way to ensure she took everything in. We felt an instant comfort with Habib partially because Nancy ensured us that we would be in good hands but also because he has such a peaceful presence. It was so nice to have an authentic experience that was not commercial, never rushed and completely personalized. I feel fortunate to have experienced Morocco and blessed to have been placed in such good hands.

After contacting Nancy at Open Doors Morocco, we were quickly partnered with our wonderful, genuine guide and now friend, Habib. Not only did we see some magical places, Habib ensured we were comfortable and truly listened to what we wanted to see and experience. The guides that he suggested for the ksar and kasbah were very passionate about their work and it showed. They added a cultural aspect that you miss if you wander these beautiful ancient buildings alone. The accommodations were perfect for us. A sincere thank you to our modest friend Habib for the interesting conversations we had. It made our trip to Morocco even more special since we have a better understanding of your culture!

LOVED LOVED LOVED their concept of engaging with the real Moroccan culture. We had an amazing day visiting families in a Berber village to riding camels into the desert for an unforgettable overnight. Our kids gained a great appreciation for the different lifestyle and the country. LOVED LOVED LOVED our guide Said. He was open, honest, very knowledgeable, and truly caring. We came to trust him completely. He took great care of us and we learned a lot about the real Moroccan life and history. We recommend them wholeheartedly and the price was very fair.

Nancy’s team focuses on their mantra of people returning transformed. The experiences being transformative for tourists and locals as well. They make sure their partners are receiving fair wages and the majority of the funds are supporting local communities and businesses. We partnered with local DMC Open Doors Morocco for a custom group for my client’s 50th birthdays and anniversary. The group was blown away; ODM took them off the beaten path, they enjoyed an authentic culturally immersive experience. ODMs guides were a huge part of the success of this small group tour. Working with this Moroccan DMC was seamless, they listened to what we wanted and made suggestions while offering their expertise. Highly recommend ODM for an authentic Morocco experience.

I attended my first Open Doors Morocco organised tour in 2018. Since then, I have had Open Doors Morocco organise all my tours. This weekend I will be on trip number 5 to Morocco organised by Open Doors! I love Morocco and Open Doors! The guides are AMAZING and I have loved every experience with them and hence why I keep going back. Open Doors makes it easy to move around the country. I’m already looking ahead to the creating another workshop planned by Open Doors in 2025.

The best part about Open Doors Morocco, they are not only my tour planners, they have become my trusted friends. I travel worry free to Morocco and that’s just the best feeling when you’re visiting a foreign country.

Our two weeks in Morocco was all we had hoped for. Nancy’s pre-tour assistance continued during the tour, helping with restaurant and other recommendations and bookings. It was a nice change to have everything organised for us. We now have a wealth of memories and photos. Highly recommended.

We were thrilled that we selected Open Doors (ODM) for our trip to Morocco. ODM exceeded our expectations in all regards. Nancy truly listened to our wishes and developed a customized itinerary based on our input.

They live the ethos they espouse. Many times during our trip Said stopped to give water to wandering shepherds alongside the road, and biscuits to the nomad children. He truly loves his country and wants to share it with his clients. I hesitate to say ‘clients’ because we became friends during our hours of dashboard time. A truly kind and giving man.

I can’t recommend Open Doors Morocco highly enough! A truly magical experience!

My family and I could not have had such a meaningful, insightful visit to Morocco without Nancy, our incredible guide Youness, and the expertise of Open Doors Morocco. No question was too small to ask as we customized a boutique, ambitious 8-day trip together, and the result was once-in-a lifetime trip.

No question was too small to ask as we customized a boutique, ambitious 8-day trip together, and the result was a once-in-a-lifetime trip. From the beauty of Chefchaouen to an unforgettable adventure in the Sahara to in-depth guided walks through Fes and Marrakesh, we got to see and learn so much of this beautiful country in the time we had.

We can’t say enough positive things about Open Doors Morocco and its people. If you want your world to get bigger and feel smaller at the same time, book this trip.

We travel extensively and usually plan everything ourselves but I am so glad we found Open Doors Morocco this time. Nancy planned a perfect trip for us. She tailored an itinerary that fit well with our interests. She responded to our questions and concerns before and during the trip promptly with sincerity. Youness, our host/driver, was an excellent match for our family. It felt like we’ve known each other for years by the end. Thank You Open Doors Morocco for making the 13-day trip one of the most memorable trips of my life.

I don’t think anyone could have planned a more perfect vacation for our family. This was an experience we will treasure forever.

Much of what made our trip so extraordinary was our driver Youssef. Youssef was awesome!! We LOVED him!! He was so kind, patient, and trustworthy. Our family loved him, especially our youngest who didn’t want you to leave his side. By the end of the eight days, Youssef felt like family.

Morocco is such a beautiful country with the kindest people and such a rich heritage. We feel so lucky and blessed to be able to spend eight days in such an enchanting place. We would absolutely love to come back someday. Morocco will always have a special place in our heart.

We’ve traveled to our 60 countries (30 with kids). Morocco is one of our favorites! Nancy truly made the experience seamless and magical!

I am not someone who usually uses a tour guide service or travel agency, I prefer to plan everything on my own. That being said, we used ODM for our trip to Morocco for logistics ease and to take some burden off of us for planning. Nancy and the ODM team delivered and put together an excellent custom trip for us with no worries. We hit Casablanca, Tangier, Chefchaouen, Moulay Idriss, Fes, Rabat, and Marrakech over a week. All of our hotels and riads were great, and Nancy was very flexible and accommodating. She is extremely responsive and always kept us updated. Our host/guide, Abdul, was excellent in every way – professional, knowledgeable, experienced, safe, and friendly. We had a great time with him and he really took good care of us.. (even meeting us at night to take us around the medinas or escort us to dinners).

We will definitely use ODM again if we come back to Morocco. You are in good hands with Abdul, Nancy, and the ODM team!

Nancy and her in-country hosts were flawless in both planning and execution of our two week trip in Morocco. There were four of us in two cars and we traveled from the Atlantic nearly to the Algerian border and sampled much of Morocco’s terrain and culture. In the planning phase Nancy was unfailingly amiable, available and thorough. In the travel phase Said and Abdul (our local hosts) were wonderful: easy-going, flexible, and very knowledgeable. They were quick to make changes as needed and yet still clear about both options and must-do stops. I recommend Open Doors Morocco in the highest possible terms.

Their website promises a transformative experience and I can attest to the truth of this claim. The care that this company takes in preparing customized itineraries that accommodate all manner of needs/desires (my partner is an above-knee amputee) is impressive, and resulted in great experiences for us.
