Before I initiated Exclusive Morocco Tours, I worked as private guide in Morocco. During this time I joined hundreds of tours with travelers from various countries. Their experiences with me are described in excellent reviews, many THANKS for the great words! It is impossible to show all but below is a short selection throughout the years.

"Highly recommend Ismail for his politeness and timely service. He seems to enjoy what he does which shows from his work."

"Ismaik is very professional. With a pleasant attitude, he always on time and being there for us. He never joined the "sales force" as a few
other guides did to put pressure on us to buy things that we don't need, or to give tips that they don't always deserve by default. He made us feel safe and content the entire trip."
Dec 2015, Louisiana, USA
"Our guide, Ismail, was kind and helpful especially with our 2 children, 7 and 9 yo. We would recommend Ismail to anyone planning a trip to Morocco."
Feb 2016, Toronto, Canada
"It was an extremely efficient way to see the country and highly effective because our driver Ismail was truly
exceptional and provided a huge amount of insight along the way. […] Our driver Ismail really made the experience for us as his knowledge of the culture and country was endless. Though some of
the drives were long we chatted the whole time which made it fly by. We became great friends as the tour progressed and we look forward to keeping in touch with him."
March 2016, New York, USA
"Our guide, Ismail was warm, friendly and quite knowledgeable about all aspects of life in Morocco. He was flexible with our schedule and was willing to adjust for whatever we requested. When we mentioned that we liked to hike he surprised us by having a guide meet us and take us on a hike in the Dades Gorge."

"I first visited in Oct 2012 with my daughter and two sons, then went back in May 2016 with two daughters and three grandchildren.The tour guide/driver each time was incredible, very interactive and. Dry respectful- I never had any issues as a single woman.The children really enjoyed the guides, and still refer to Ismail as their friend."
Aug 2016, Rome, Italy
"My guide, Ismail, is a real pro and he makes you feel like you're at home. At the end we were like good friends. He is really well informed and able to guide you into the secrets of its country. Also, he was really flexible so that I could enjoy my experience in my own way and times."
Oct 2016, New York, USA
"We had an amazing three day tour with our driver Ismail. He was engaging and tailored the entire experience to our preferences. I can't say enough good things about our time there and Ismail in particular. He even overheard me mention my girlfriend's upcoming birthday at one point and arranged an amazing cake for her on our last night together. Thank you to Ismail"

"My niece travelled with Ismail last year and had a great time. So when we thought of a holiday in Morocco again, it was natural that we would ask Ismail to help us plan the trip as well as be our driver and guide. […] Ismail was our constant companion. He was very knowledgeable and shared history, facts and anecdotes of the places we went. Through the long road journey, our holiday was filled with laughter, singing and even dancing on Ismail's birthday. He was considerate and protective of us, often keeping an eye on us when we went trekking, lending a hand on steep places. We had an amazing experience in the desert, where he told us stories of the nomads, pointed out stars to us. We all laid down in the desert sand, with blankets from our rooms, squinting into the night sky, looking for shooting stars so we could make a wish - really magical!
We were really sad when our trip ended... Ismail had become a friend and it was time to part ways. We had such a great holiday because of Ismail and would highly recommend him if you want a personal and fun experience in Morocco. We will want Ismail to be our driver and guide again if we return."
Dec 2016, London, UK
"The key to our enjoyment on this trip was thanks to our amazing driver called Ismail. By the end of the trip he was like a member of the family. He has such a wonderful warm and friendly personality who is always willing to help you. He has a great knowledge of the country & culture and is always willing to answer your questions. He speaks great English and is also very patient if English is not your first language (my wife is from China). He is also very good at taking photos! […] Also when my wife became ill […] you could literally say that Ismail saved our holiday!"

"After reading reviews, we requested Ismail as our tour guide and were absolutely blown away because he belongs in a Hall-of-Fame for tour Guides. Not only did he do everything that was possible to make our trip amazing (including all the small details), but he is so knowledgeable that he can answer any question. In addition, he found out that one of our friends had a birthday, and he bought a cake and brought it all the way out to the Sahara desert so we can celebrate it with Berbers and everyone in our group. […] Regardless if you are a family or a group of 5 friends like ourselves, Ismail tailors his trips to your needs and desires. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone!"

"My husband, 12 year old daughter, and myself could not have had a better experience in Morocco than the 3 days we spent with Ismail. While Morocco is enchanting, interesting, and beautiful, it was Ismail that gave us a deep love for this country, its people, food, and history. He never seemed to tire of us asking questions about every topic you can imagine - in fact he always seemed to have some information or tidbit to tell us about the landscape, the people, the history, It was amazing!
Ismail also went out of his way to have conversations with our daughter. Often guides will either treat her like a small child or will practically ignore her, but Ismail created a rapport with her that made her feel special. On top of all of this, he is simply a super fun and kind person."
May 2017, Omaha, USA
"On a 10 day trip where you're spending a lot of time in the car together, a great driver/ guide can make a huge difference in your trip and we are so glad that Ismail was our guide. He was super fun to be around, saw the humor in things (we had so many good laughs!), answered all our crazy questions about the culture and Morocco in general, and really customized the trip on the fly to what we were in the mood for. I've had other drivers or guides that have gotten an itinerary in their head and then act frustrated or disappointed when you don't want to do everything, but Ismail was not like that at all. He was completely flexible and always in good spirits and he really made the trip way better than it would have been without him. By the end we all felt sad to be leaving our friend!"

"I undertook the desert tour as a solo trip. It was awe inspiring and so much fun due to Ismail who drove whilst providing wonderful insights and stories all the way. One of the best holidays of my life."
Oct 2017, Paisley, UK
"Our guide Ismail Sadiki exceeded every expectation. From the moment he met up with us amidst the mayhem of Marrakech, he filled us with confidence that our Moroccan Adventure would be fabulous. Indeed, his wonderful mix of professionalism, kindness warmth of personality and pride in Moroccan landscapes and culture made for a memorable trip. Ismail was great fun to be around and our 11 year old enjoyed his discussions about Morocco, Berber culture and life in North Africa. Indeed, he took the time to chat and joke with him; travelling as a family, our priority was for our son to enjoy the trip - we weren't disappointed."
Jan 2018, California, USA
"All that being said, our driver now friend, Ismail was honestly the highlight of our tour. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind. We were traveling with our three children and they absolutely adored Ismail as well. We learned so much in the three days we traveled with Ismail and were sad when we had to say goodbye."

"This was the best tour I have ever been on in my life. Ismail can not be recommended enough. Without Ismail our holiday to Morocco would have been incomplete. We continuously changed plans and Ismail was so flexible, no request was too large!"
May 2018, New York, USA
"We had the pleasure of doing the tour with Ismail Sadiki. He was very knowledgeable about each site we visited and explained the culture of the people. Not only highly informative, Ismail has a great personality. We traveled during the middle of Ramadan and Ismail was very patient, made us comfortable and had a great sense of humor. […] if you can request Ismail you will love him."
Sept 2018, Washington DC, USA
"Above all else though was our driver, Ismaik, who was quite possibly the highlight of our trip. Super friendly, super funny, and a fantastic driver to boot. We’ve only been off the tour for an hour or so and I’m already sad we won’t be seeing him again. He’s truly a gem of a person and our trip would have been lesser without him."
Sept 2018, Ottawa, Canada
"Our hesitations at taking our first private tour were proven to be woefully misguided after our fantastic experience with the charismatic Ismail. […] Pressure- and hassle-free touring with plenty of opportunities to individualize stops for pictures, shopping or exploring. We truly felt that we were being taken care of at every step. Ismail is the best!"
Sept 2018, Wellington, New Zealand
"Thank you Ismail, you made this trip one we will never forget."
Oct 2018, Singapore
"Our tour guide, Ismail was excellent. His driving was steady and we definitely felt safe throughout the 3 days tour. He was so knowledge and able to answer all our questions which helped us to understand Morocco's culture and history. And not to forget, Ismail was caring and attentive to our needs and always putting a smile to everyone he meets. He was engaging, able to keep up with conversations and our car rides were never boring. Thanks to Ismail, we really enjoyed the trip and experienced the culture of Morocco."

"Our driver and tour guide Ismail was picking us up at the arranged time early in the morning and we got along great immediately. We ask him to go out of his way at the start of our trip, as first, we wanted to drop off our main luggage at the hotel where we would stay after our tour and were accommodated with a smile!!
Ismail was a truly wonderful tour guide, his English was very good and he shared his knowledge about the sights, people and customs we had the
pleasure to see and experience. Ismail was also flexible, allowing for some changes we requested along the tour and was always helpful to suggest additional wonderful things to do or see along
the way. The car was always clean and had ample AC for those hot days in the desert."
