We highly recommend Journey Beyond Travel for a
journey of a lifetime. JBT promised a extraordinary
experience and they delivered!
--Gisella, Ana, Daisy, & Vivi, USA
Our two-week holiday with JBT
was absolutely fantastic. At first, we were
hesitant about picking a tour company off
the Internet, but JBT delivered everything
promised and more. The knowledgeable,
trustworthy and friendly guides and drivers
made our tour a truly memorable experience.
The meals shared with locals gave us an
opportunity to see what life behind the
private walls of the city is really like. We
felt Fazia's personal touch along the way in
everything we did. I would not hesitate to
recommend Journey Beyond Travel...in fact, I
already have.
-Michele, Bill and Sydney, Morocco Family
Tour
It was our first visit to North
Africa and we took a four-day Sahara trek
with Journey
Beyond Travel. It was pleasantly planned
out with great accomodations and experienced
guides. We were very pleased with the
choices and suggestions given by JTB for our
trip. Our first correspondence was with
Fazia, who gave sound advice and tips on
local customs and insights. WIth Hicham and
Tata, we felt as if we had known them our
whole lives!
-Ailene and Sam, Tailored Morocco
Holiday
Morocco has been one of the
most wonderful travel experiences for us and
Journey Beyond Travel ensured that happened.
The flexibility and organisation was
brilliant. I was a little worried about
traveling with kids in Morocco but with JBT
there were no such worries. Our boys (11
& 13) got totally into it. One is still
drinking his mint tea he makes himself. The
guides were wonderful and being able to join
them for meals with their families really
opened their eyes. We all learned so much.
The desert visit was a highlight for all.
Thank you JBT!
-Trish and Family, Customized Family Morocco
Tour
What a fantastic experience
Journey Beyond Travel provided for us during
our trip to
Morocco in May 2009! The entire tour was
extremely well organised and it was obvious
that a great deal of research had gone into
choosing places to stay, travel experiences
and restaurants to dine in. Fazia and Thomas
have sourced experienced, knowledgable,
trustworthy and friendly guides and drivers
who made our tour a truly memorable
experience. The camel trek and night in the
desert is not to be missed--I would
certainly travel with JBT again--thank you
all for a great experience, wonderful
sights, and fond memories!
-Cheryle and Jill, Customised Morocco
Holiday
Journey Beyond Travel was a
pleasure to work with and always answered
our questions immediately. They put together
a great week for us! It was lovely to meet
Fazia as we drove through Ifrane. I hope we
get to work with the JBT Team again in the
future!
-Sue, Private Morocco Tour
We had a great time in Morocco
and were very impressed with JBT's planning,
down to the last detail. We got a
fascinating, detailed view of life in
Morocco that a "standard" tour would not
provide - from spectacular scenery to
informal discussions with our guides about
their daily lives, from welcoming visits to
family homes to elegantly restored riads in
the heart of the medina.
-Lianne and Shawn, Tailored Morocco
Holiday
Morocco is mysterious and
magical and an experience not to be missed!
Journey Beyond Travel takes care of all
details, big and small, easing the way for
travelers to safely soak up all of the
myriad sights & sounds. The
accommodations are charming and comfortable.
There is complete flexibility in designing a
trip and guides are chosen for their
specific knowledge of each area. I would
choose JBT for my next trip!
-Sue and John, 8-Day Morocco Trip
We spent two wonderful weeks
with Journey Beyond Travel. Morocco could
not be a more magical place and we couldn't
have chosen a better company to see it with.
We had the best drivers, the most beautiful
accommodations and the country's best
guides. We were taken to amazing places we
never could have gone on our own and met
wonderful people we never would have known.
Our goal for our trip was to get off the
tourist path and really experience the
country. JBT showed us a Morocco that far
exceeded any expectations we had. We will be
forever grateful for the experience we had
and the friends we've made! It was truly the
trip of a lifetime!
-Jason and John, Customised Morocco
Holiday
Journey Beyond Travel are a
fantastic Morocco
tour organiser. They really take care to
understand what you want, and customise the
holiday accordingly. We managed to fit in so
much more than we could possibly have done
in 9 days if we had arranged it ourselves,
and all the experiences were really
fabulous. Accommodation was in wonderful
small guesthouses and riads, we ate at some
fantastic restaurants, and we saw an
enormous variety of aspects of Morocco. A
really wonderful experience!
-Lin and her Mother, Customized Morocco
Package
We
would recommend Journey Beyond Travel
without hesitation. Their itinerary was
excellent, all their promises were kept,
everything was ready and waiting and the
guides and drivers that they employ are
knowledgeable and pleasant to be with. If we
return to Morocco again, we will certain
turn to them for another wonderful tour.
-Shirley and Glen, Private Morocco
Holiday
Just a
quick note of thanks for the wonderful
Morocco
holiday. It was a great experience and
all of us enjoyed it thoroughly...all the
programs planned worked in clock-work
precision. I can’t recall any point where we
had to wait for any driver/guide for even a
minute. And the places to stay were simply
superb. Much appreciated by all of us. Keep
up the good work!
-Pankaj and Family, Customized Morocco
Trip
Our
trip to Morocco was magical! It is a
vacation our family will remember for a long
time. And, that's a lot given that our
daughters are 6 and 10! We really connected
with our driver and guide, plus we learned
so much about the country and culture. Our
daughters now want to learn Arabic. The
people were friendly, the food fabulous;
thank you for a memorable journey!
-Dee and Family, Magical Sahara Tour
Binita and I were quite impressed with the
timeliness of all our drivers. We never had to
wait more than five minutes, though most drivers
were right on time. Fez was our favorite, and the
Quartier Habous in Casablanca was something of a
gem. We had a great holiday in Morocco.
Everything went very smoothly and we came back
with some great stories and a number of
souvenirs.
-Scott and Binita, Private Morocco
Holiday
I
wholeheartedly recommend Journey Beyond
Travel to anyone interested in visiting
Morocco. They were very interested in me as
a customer and were always prompt in
answering my questions or adjusting my
itinerary. They paid so much attention to
detail that our trip was practically
effortless. They went beyond the call of
duty in making our trip easy, enjoyable, and
very memorable. I can't recommend them
enough. I will use their services again on
my next trip to Morocco. They really know
the country and their suggestions always
exceeded my expectations.
-Ron Reitz, Morocco Tailored Trip
Thank you for
all your help with the trip to Morocco. We
had a great time and your input and
arrangements were key to this...Your help
and planning with this trip was excellent
and very much an indication of your really
listening to us and what we wanted. What we
didn't expect were all the signs of how
invested you are in Morocco itself and your
commitment to the growth, advancement, and
development of the people you work with such
as Omar, Tata, Lahcen, etc. Realizing that
was part of the agenda of the travel agency
we were working with made the trip all the
more enjoyable and special. Thank you for
your help and for the efforts you are making
in Morocco.
-Howard and Janet, Private Couple Trip
Journey Beyond
Travel did an amazing job providing the
perfect trip for an excellent price. The
staff was very helpful and everything ran as
expected - like clock-work. They used small
hotels and riads that were of a very good
quality, in wonderful locations, and are
thoroughly researched by the staff. The
drivers and guides showed up on time and all
were incredibly professional. Everyone
considered Journey Beyond Travel as
"friends," so it was important for them to
do an outstanding job. The staff was able to
accommodate all of my requests - from seeing
all of the diverse landscapes to spending
time with a local family. In a short amount
of time, I felt like I was able to
experience a little piece of all of
Morocco's treasures. I highly recommend JBT
for customized packages to Morocco,
especially for those looking for a trip in
the mid-range price, and I am looking
forward to my next trip with JBT!
-Michele Cerullo, Solo Traveler
Journey Beyond
Travel organised an adventure for us that
lived up to their name. We had an amazing
time seeing a large part of Morocco and
engaging with the people of the country.
Their (JBT's) planning was well designed.
Their execution was flawless. And, the
experience was nothing short of phenomenal.
Merci mille fois!
-Britt, Tailored Morocco Trip
Journey
Beyond Travel provided the perfect one-week
custom Morocco tour for the three of us. It
was everything I had asked for and more.
Morocco was as exotic as I had hoped and
more beautiful than I had dreamed. The
drivers and guides all did an exceptional
jobs. The cost for this private tour was
more than reasonable and went
extraordinarily well. I have traveled the
world in many ways and this was one of the
best trips ever! I highly recommend Journey
Beyond Travel.
-Bonnie Edwards, Customized Tour
Brilliant
holiday! Everything was perfectly arranged
and well communicated. We loved the riads in
Marrakesh and Zagora. Our favorite time was
in the High Atlas Mountains, in Omar's
village (very comfortabe), and in the
desert. Go with Journey Beyond Travel if you
want something adventurous: fun, different,
and fascinating!
-Annelie Green, Morocco Family Trip
This was truly
one of the most amazing experiences we have
had in travelling. I highly suggest staying
overnight in the tented camp, rising early
to walk up the dunes and view the incredible
sunrise. No words can describe the beauty of
the changing colours of the Red Sahara Sand.
The customer service and attention to detail
by Journey Beyond Travel was perfect. Thanks
for the experience of a lifetime!
-Mary Lou Papachristou, Private Group
Trip
Journey
Beyond Travel exceeded our expectations!
They planned an 11 day honeymoon trip
through Morocco, which turned out to be an
amazing adventure. We learned so much about
Moroccan culture and history; it was great
to be exposed to a culture that doesn't
follow the "American ideal". Our trip was
very well organized; everything ran
incredibly smooth. Our guides/drivers and
the hotel staff knew where we had to be each
day, it was great not to have to worry about
it ourselves. Thank you so much for
providing us with such a memorable
honeymoon!
-Henny Choubaralian, Morocco Honeymoon
Trip
My friends and
I just returned from a tour to
Morocco and thanks to the services of
the folks at Journey Beyond Travel the trip
was a huge success. Ours was was a
customized Morocco trip and right from the
first contact we felt that they made every
effort to understand the kind of trip we
wanted. Their expert knowledge and
suggestions were invaluable... We finally
settled on the city of Marrakesh, a trip
over the
High Atlas Mountains to Skoura in the valley
of a thousand kasbahs, and finally a couple of
relaxing days in the coastal town of Essaouira.
JBT pulled it all together and everything turned
out as expected. The riads were great, especially
Dar Silsila in Marrakech...I would certainly
recommend JBT to anyone who is interested in
visiting Morocco - travelers who do not want a
typical big bus tour or who do not want to travel
completely independently. Thanks JBT!
-Margaret Canlas, Honolulu, HI
We
could not have found a better Morocco
tour operator! Journey Beyond Travel
looked into every detail of our holiday and
provided us with everything. At every
destination the Riad or Hotel knew exactly
how many rooms and the exact details of our
reservation. The tours, guides, and drivers
were all fantastic! Everyone was patient,
caring, and looked after us very well.
-Kay Karuna & Group (Singapore), Private
Morocco Holiday
I traveled on a
Morocco
trip for nine days with my 19 and 20
year old daughters and my father-in-law. On
three different occasions, one of my
daughters exclaimed, "Dad, you plan the
coolest trips!" I let them give me the full
credit for the planning of the trip , when
in fact Journey Beyond Travel deserves the
credit. Morocco is a wonderful country; JBT
does a great job and we had a tremendous
trip!
-Randy Reynolds & Family (USA), Customized
Morocco Trip
We highly
recommend Journey Beyond Travel for a
journey of a lifetime. Their commitment and
responsiveness to all our questions and our
needs was outstanding. Thanks to JBT our
entire Moroccan experience; from the dunes
of the Sahara to the Marrakesh Medina, our
trip was truly memorable! Journey Beyond
Travel promised a extraordinary experience
and they delivered!
-Gisella, Ana, Daisy, and Vivi (USA), Small
Group Morocco Holiday
My
husband, our 16 year old son, and I went on
a custom
Morocco holiday with Journey Beyond
Travel. We travel internationally quite a
bit and have learned that the best memories
are all about the people we meet. JBT
provided a truly memorable trip for all of
us - we had a fun market and cooking lesson
in Fez, shared tea and milk with Abdel
Karim, a date farmer in an oasis, and had an
exhilarating and exhausting climb up Mount
Toubkal in the snow... Through it all, our
JBT guide was calm and knowledgeable,
providing interesting insight about the
people and culture. We would absolutely
recommend JBT to anyone who wants a trip
full of wonderful experiences and memories.
Writing this description makes me want to do
it all over again...
-Tim, Loretta, and Mika Little, Custom Morocco
Holiday
Journey
Beyond Travel was able to meet the needs of
our family
Morocco tour to a "T". Amazing!
This vacation went like clockwork, exactly
as our itinerary indicated. I had ZERO
stress about anything, and was able to
really relax and enjoy the country and its
people. I have already indicated to many
families our huge success with JBT. I always
felt totally safe, I knew there was help at
the end of the phone if needed. The little
extras from JBT made all the difference to
our kids and to we adults.
-Sharon Duguid, Tailored Family Morocco
Holiday
We loved
every place we stayed. The locations were
always surprising and mysterious. The staff
at every place was extremely welcoming. Food
was absolutely delicious. They were unique
places we would not have found on our own.
-Pam Tucker, Family Morocco Trip
Journey
Beyond Travel coordinates such an authentic
experience that you just miss out on with
larger, more generic tour companies. The
tour leader's knowledge helped to bridge the
gap between my culture and Moroccan culture
which made me feel like less of a tourist
and allowed me to experience Morocco in a
truly authentic way.
-Candice McEachren, May Eclectic Tour
All I can say is
"WOW"! I have traveled to Scotland,
Italy, China, Barbardos, and parts of the
US, but this Morocco trip was the
BEST. Journey Beyond Travel was truly
exceptional in providing an intimate and
thoroughly outstanding experience on this
Morocco bike tour. I felt totally spoiled and
I do not think I will ever be able to go back to
run-of-the-mill package tours.
-Lillian Au, Morocco Bike Tour
We have to
thank the team at JBT for the wonderful
honeymoon that they put together for us. The
Morocco they showed us was everything
and more than we had ever imagined, from the
rich culture, friendly people, and gorgeous
sceneries that just held us spellbound. The
trip that JBT put together for us had just
the right elements of independent adventure,
cultural immersion, and of course, romance!
Our nine honeymoon rooms were beautiful, and
we made great friends along the way. We sure
miss Abdel Karim in the Ziz Valley! All in
all, what we appreciated most was the
excellent pre and after-sales service that
JBT provides. They obviously love
Morocco, AND they love what they do,
which makes them great at it. Every single
thing was planned to meticulous detail, and
every single need we had was met. They make
sure you have a fantastic trip, and we did!
Best summarised: it is like having a good
local friend help you plan your trip. Thank
You Journey Beyond Travel!
-Nurhidayati Yahya & Rizal Yacob,
Customized Morocco Honeymoon Trip
This
was one of the best vacations ever - I have
done nothing but rave to my friends! Journey
Beyond Travel arranged a wonderful trip for
us, which was "beyond" our expectations. The
guides were all knowledgeable, the
accommodations were all great and we saw
everything we wanted to see. We felt safe at
all times and really felt that we got to
“know” Morocco. It is a fascinating and
beautiful place. We'd love to go back. And
if we do, we would definitely use Journey
Beyond Travel again. The trip was totally
magical!
-Lindsay Hague, March Private Tour
Thank
you for arranging such a wonderful and
fascinating Morocco
trip. I found the destinations you
selected for my itinerary - Marrakech, the
High Atlas Mountains, and
Essaouira - excellent in their diversity and
extraordinary in their splendor. By visiting
them, I feel I witnessed the essence of southern
Morocco's character, culture, and people.
-Brian VanDeMark, March Private Tour
Traveling
from Fez through the Ziz Valley to Marrakech
and up into the
High Atlas Mountains, we had the time of our
lives. Journey Beyond Travel not only planned a
variety of experiences, but also took advantage
of spontaneous opportunities - like visiting an
organic farm en route. The accommodations they
arranged were wonderful. I've been planning to
return to Morocco with them very soon.
-Nanette Anslinger, Fall Eclectic Tour
From my
arrival at my hotel in Marrakech until my
return I couldn't have had a better
experience - all credit going to Journey
Beyond Travel and their amazing
staff...My personal guide was amazing...The
High Atlas Mountains Trek from Imlil to Base
camp was gorgeous...The summit of
Mount Toubkal was all I could have hoped for
and more. I will not hesitate recommending JBT to
friends!
-John Iaquinto, Winter Toubkal Ascent
I simply
cannot convey in words how amazing the trip
was...everyone we met - whether through JBT
or not - was the epitome of friendliness. I
have raved to my friends about Morocco in
general and Journey Beyond Travel in
particular. Thank you so much for
customizing our tour, adapting it as we
went, being so responsive to our questions,
and truly showing us the real
Morocco.
-Kendall Blue, November Customized
Tour
We
loved our behind-the-scenes,
off-the-beaten-path adventure in Morocco!
With Journey Beyond Travel's personal
connections, we felt more like welcomed
visitors than "tourists".
-Diana & David Butler, October Custom
Morocco Holiday
The
Riads in Fez and Marrakech were amazing.
Journey Beyond Travel did a great job of
arranging accommodations, restaurants,
tours, and giving shopping advice. I would
highly recommend them to make all your
accommodation arrangements. Next time I go
to Morocco, I’m going to bring four empty
suitcases and just buy stuff!
-Erin Miller, September Eclectic Tour
Oh My God!! What can a Girl say about the
hospitality and the awesomeness of Morocco? That
it's the SHIT? That it's pretty darn cool?
Literally, everywhere we went there was an
adventure - would you like to try and eat sheep's
head? Sure, no problem. Want a snake coiled
around your neck? We can do that too. Like this
rug here? We can wrap this up after we drink a
little tea. Journey Beyond Travel takes immense
pride in being able to show you the "real
Morocco" - the one you can smell, taste, touch.
And proud they should be - I felt safe and secure
at all times, never was a time when I wondered
where I was or what I was doing. I strongly urge
anyone to take the short plane ride (just 7 hours
from New York City) and immerse yourself into a
fascinating and beautiful place.
-Victoria Marcum-Howard, October
Ait Bougmez Hike
Travelling with
Journey Beyond Travel was simply fantastic!
As a keen independent traveller, I was very
impressed with the flexibility and intimacy
of this group. The organisers and tour
leaders were very professional, knowledgable
and provided individualised information as
necessary. The JBT team live in Morocco and
have developed knoweldge and relationships
that only a local could have, and we as
travellers reaped the benefit of this. There
was lots of time to explore as well as some
interesting local guides who provided
invaluable insight into their lives, homes
and local areas. The main reason I enjoyed
my trip with JBT was that we got to
experience many places and meet local people
that were off the beaten track and that
other groups [traveling with another
company] would not even know about, let
alone visit. These were the hightlights of
my Morocco experience.
-Niki Hepi, September Eclectic Tour
