Simply great trip to Marrakech
05-Dec-2023
Quit reading reviews and book a trip with Joy Travel. You won’t regret it. Some quick advice/things to know: -If it’s not clear from the description , this is a small company and anything on the trip can be customized. Reach out and ask. -Ismail is a perfectionist. He cares about the most minute details and will make this trip magical. Trust me. -If Ismail is on another tour his communications may be slow. Be patient. -Essaouira is coast city where little has changed and few tourists. Marrakech is the opposite but still fun to visit. Out of the two I’d spend more time in Essaouira. -The luxury package is definitely worth it.

Amazing 5 days in Marrakech and its region
28-Sep-2023
We book a 5-day Marrakech Holiday, based on positive reviews. And the experience was 100% worth it. Yassine is a native, speaks 5 languages, drives his car with excellence, is very easy to communicate with, and generally very positive. He'll tell you tons of tales if you're in the mood to talk, or will play a very nice playlist of local music if you're not. P.S. If you come to the Atals Mountains in winter, be ready to freeze!
