spectacular trip

We decided at the last minute to take this trip and I must say I made the right decision. Safi was wonderful, as was Oualidia. But the greatest jewel of the day was our guide, Hamza, a wonderful person who taught us so much on this day. Thanks to him, we saw places that would have been impossible on our own, not to mention his attention and care towards my family. If you can, ask for Hamza, he will make your trip as unforgettable as ours.
