I booked this amazing excursion while in port in Cadiz, Spain, and let me tell you – it was everything! First off, a quick note: Norwegian doesn’t actually port in Seville, even though it says "Sevilla" – a little mix-up on my part, but no worries! Ali, the fantastic guide, was super flexible and made sure everything was perfect despite my mistake. Honestly, from the moment I stepped into Morocco, I felt like royalty, like I was living in a real-life fairy tale.
My guide, Amed, and our driver, Shoecron, were absolutely fabulous. From start to finish, they made the day unforgettable. The journey was smooth, and the ferry ride was incredibly fast – so easy! Once we got to Tangier, I never once felt unsafe walking through the vibrant streets. It was such a welcoming, friendly atmosphere.
I thought the highlight would be riding camels on the beach by the ocean (which was incredible!), but I was blown away by the restaurant we visited. The food? Out of this world. The owner welcomed us like we were long-lost friends – it was such a warm, personal touch. We got to see so much of the city in our eight hours there, and I was so relieved we got back to the boat an hour early – total perfection!
One of the best surprises: Ali had called me the day I booked to tell me he'd try to meet up, though he was already booked for the day. I honestly thought I wouldn't get to see him, but guess what? He showed up at lunch! He spent about 20 minutes chatting with us – it was such a nice personal touch. And get this – my small group was just my mom and me. How cool is that?
Thank you to Ali, Amed, Shoecron, and the whole team for making this such a memorable, magical experience. This is a day we’ll never forget!
