Our driver was amazing. He answered all of our questions and helped us find a great guide at Volubilis. The car was clean and he was a careful driver. Volubilis was fascinating-worth the visit. We needed to get to the train station instead of returning to Fes, and he took dropped us off in front of the station.

Our friendly driver Sufian picked us up right outside of our hotel and transported us safely to Volubilis, which was our main focus on this tour. He was very helpful with advice and coordinated an English-speaking guide for our tour of the ruins that proved to be fun and very informative. He also did a wonderful job recommending a great restaurant for lunch upon arrival in Meknes. I’m sure there are other travel options to get from Fez to Meknes, but nothing compares to the polite and professional service we received on our private drive.

Voloubilis. Mooie Romeinse opgravingen. Groots en deel nog mooi geconserveerd.
Meknes als stad minder interessant. Was veel in verbouwing.
Mausoleum wel erg mooi.
