Immersion into heart and homes of Morocco. 

“In summary, this coastal journey was one of the best travel experiences we’ve had. It wasn’t just a tour; it was an immersion into the heart and homes of Morocco. We dined with local families, learnt how to cook, had picnics on the beach.  Our tour guides went above and beyond and pre-empted our every need.   For anyone looking for a trip that combines history, culture, and exceptional food, this trip will exceed all your expectations. We’re already looking forward to booking our next adventure with Judith at Gourmet On Tour!”

What happy guests said about this tour…

  • Delicious, different and engaging - Thank you so much for organising a fantastic 3-day break in Beijing. Even though we actually live in China, it was very insightful and we discovered many hidden gems we would never have found in guidebooks.

    Claire S., Shanghai, China
  • Best way to see Beijing - This was the perfect introduction to China and best way to see this vibrant city. Loved making dumplings in a charming Hutong and sharing stories with locals. Felt like a real insider.
