Marrakech, la ciudad roja, es una de las ciudades más importantes de Marruecos. Situada a los pies del Alto Atlas, goza de un clima de tipo mediterráneo seco, con temperaturas estivales que pueden superar los 40ºC. Fundada en el año 1062 de la era cristiana por Youssef Ibn Tachnifn, primer soberano de la dinastía almorávide, todavía conserva importantes vestigios de su historia en monumentos como la Escuela Coránica o Madrasa de Ben Youssef, el Mausoleo de los Saadíes, la Mezquita Kutubía, los palacios El Badi y Bahía o los más modernos jardines El Agdal y Majorelle, entre otros. Resulta imprescindible la visita a la famosa plaza de Jemaa el-Fna, patrimonio de la humanidad de la UNESCO, un lugar mágico que nos transportará a un mundo de fantasía donde embelesarnos entre contadores de cuentos, aguadores, encantadores de serpientes y otros animales, acróbatas, dentistas, músicos y bailarines, adivinadores, tatuadoras de hena, vendedores de zumos, frutos secos y productos medicinales tradicionales… todo un lujo para los sentidos.
La verdad es que es dificil destacar algo de nuestro viaje a marruecos porque ahi que ir para descubrir todos los lugares diferentes que puedes encontrar. Toda la hospitalidad y amabilidad de sus gentes. Gracias a todos en especial a Jonas, Hasan etc, etc que hicieron de nuestro viaje una experiencia inolvidable. Por supuesto volveremos. Gracias por todo.
I am absolutely amazed with the treatment received by Africa Aventura during our stay in Morocco. Yunes has been not only a tour guide, but also a storyteller (he is an open book, you can talk with him of whatever you want to know), a waiter, a photographer, a mediator, a 24 hours personal assistant and a long etc. From the first day till the last one, he has accompanied us at every moment: In hotels: he has kept abreast of every detail, from reception, when he helped us to bring the luggage to the bedroom, to show us how to switch the air conditioned on, or even to give us towels at the swimming pool when we realized we had forgotten them. At meals: Yunes seated with us (we invited him to do so) like one more, but he was not relaxed like us because he was checking out that absolutely everything was perfect. If you needed something and the waiter was not close to asking for it, he stopped eating to bring you that thing. I remember when there were crepes to have for dessert and they were so delicious that I wanted to repeat. Then he gave me his. By the way, were couldn’t believe it when he took us to his own house where her mother cooked for us during the whole morning (the best cous-cous I have ever tried for sure). During transfers: Yunes came with us in our cars (we didn’t rent any) and he guided the route while explaining what the landscape offered. Also how people dressed, the differences between one looks and others, etc., etc. During activities: He organized everything too. He stayed even until the party in haimas reached his end just to make sure everything was okay (actually he was really tired because he wakes up at 4:30am to pray and then he never stops, but even that, he is always the last one lying down). At the time of purchases: Yunes took us to very good places, not only for the quality, but also taking in to account to whom the money was destined. To give an example, we saw many scarves shops, but he recommended us to buy them to a woman and her daughters, who started a kind of project to help the women involved. In definitely, Yunes has been the most incredible trip partner (I cannot say guide, it would not be fair) I have ever known. And now, I am sure I can say that a new friend has come into my life. Thank you Yunes, this trip without you wouldn’t be absolutely the same… Don’t ever change! You’re incredible!
Incredible experience with AfricaAventuras. Our guide Jammal was very nice and he made the trip very funny! Also Younes helped us for any question we had. A perfect trip to feel the culture, traditions, food, dancing, etc. The desert was a place for reflection and disconnection perfect for us! I really recommend it!.
Nuestro buen amigo YUNES, Alonso del desierto, para sus amigos de Alicante. Un chaval estupendo que se puede confiar con él.
