We had a great time and memories we will have for a lifetime

All the tours I've done with G have been good, but I feel that sometimes there's a lack of thought in some areas.
11/30/2023
Because the experience was great better than I expected Said was amazing and went out of his way to ensure that we were all happy and looked after

The CEO, Saaid, was amazing
11/30/2023
some Hotels did not have hot water The food was bland and the same Too long on buses Very cold camping at night
11/30/2023
Generally the activities undertaken were great, but far too much time was taken driving around (it felt like the second half of the trip was just driving and sleeping) and the hotels and food weren't good enough
11/30/2023
The trip is mostly for younger people or people not expecting nightly comforts.
11/23/2023
Loved seeing so much of Morocco
11/23/2023
The overall trip was very good! Karim, our guide was amazing! Some over night stays like the 2nd night camping in the desert was very poor! Expecting 2 grown elderly women to spend a night together in a pup tent was ridiculous.

Great combination and options of tours. Always a great mixture.
11/23/2023
Beautiful trip and CEO but description of tour for our desert experience was deceiving

Activity and location diversity.

Balance between group experience and Individual activities
11/16/2023
Amazing experience. Some of my friends would not like camping in the desert
11/16/2023
Having traveled with a few service providers we like the overall style of travel and level of accommodation and level of fitness we are able to choose with G Adventures. Specifically with this trip we had a good schedule that worked relatively well, I'll share a few thoughts on that later, and had a superb CEO in Said.
11/16/2023
Very well run tour, fantastic value for money

G Adventures are excellent but are not appropriate for many of my family members, mostly because of age or disabilities
Family trips cannot be booked online.
