    I traveled solo on the 8-day Morocco local tour from Casablanca with Morocco Meander, and it was an incredible experience. The group’s size was perfect, allowing for a personalized experience. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, giving us a taste of Morocco’s diverse culture and landscapes. The highlight for me was spending a night in a desert camp, surrounded by the vastness of the dunes. The whole trip was well-executed, and I felt safe and well taken care of throughout. A trip of a lifetime!
