For many of us, visiting Morocco is a bucket-list kind
of trip. The photos, the colors, the cuisine, the Sahara
Desert, Casablanca, Marrakech…all conjure up “exotic”
images. After three years of a close friend talking to
me about enjoying magical Morocco with this magical
tour guide, I finally decided to book this tour. In early
March of 2020, eleven of us turned in our deposits,
booked our flights and put our faith into our tour guide,
Addi Quadderrou’s hands.
The tour started out in anxiety mode though. The
international flight that most of us were booked on,
Royal Air Maroc, cancelled our flight one week before
departure. After much grumbling, we had to change our
connecting flights and hotel reservations, and arranged
to leave a few days later.
