Guided Women’s Tour Morocco: Ethical, Intimate, Small Group Travel

A small group of women on an all girls ethical, tour and travel through Morocco.
Join My Women’s Tour to Morocco

This is the 15 day / 14 night Morocco women’s tour youโ€™ve been waiting for!

A very warm welcome to my page dedicated to all things women trips, and all things Morocco! My name is Sharon, and I’m a wanderluster to the core, always looking forward to the next travel adventure. And I’m super excited you’re here to find out more about coming on my next women’s tour to Morocco.

I love bringing travel loving women together, to meet my Moroccan friends and see Morocco through my eyes. After slow travelling Morocco for 3 months, I’ve discovered the hidden gems, made the local connections… and now it’s time for you to come experience a piece of authentic Morocco with me.

This adventure will include the medinas, the kasbahs, the Berber villages, desert dunes under starry skies, Marrakech shopping days, Fes tanneries, rugged mountains, village hammams, windswept beaches, cute riads, history, culture… and so much mint tea!!!

I’ve designed the BEST 15 day itinerary and handpicked each nights stay. So get your friends on board, or come make some new ones!

Meet My Friend & Guide – Ahmed Zin

Ahmed Zin and Sharon Ward snap a photo in front of gold doors in Morocco - women's tour

Ahmed and family are proud Amazigh Berber, and the village of Aroumd in the Atlas Mountains is their home. Visiting Morocco with Ahmed, honestly doesnโ€™t get any more authentic! 

We met his family in 2022 while slow travelling through Morocco. And after hearing how large tour operators, bring tour groups to the Atlas Mountains, with minimal profit seen in the villages, I was determined to help Ahmed and his guiding business – Trek Atlas.

And so I wrote this blog, which saw him gain many enquiries and bookings. Nowadays Ahmedโ€™s tour company is thriving and Ahmed has employed more local villagers, ultimately spreading the profit where it really counts. For Ahmed itโ€™s all about supporting his community.

Scroll to the bottom of that same blog to read the many comments of travellers who have all since taken a tour with Ahmed, and youโ€™ll read how they ALSO sing his praises. 

A few Testimonials Of TREK Atlas shared on my Blog –

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ โ€œI canโ€™t thank you enough for taking the time to write such a good article about Ahmed and his company. Because of you, I found them amidst the souk full of choices.โ€ – Dave Gooder

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ โ€œAhmed is not only highly experienced, he is very committed to sustainable tourism and improving the skills and livelihoods of the local community.โ€ – Julie Lawrence

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ โ€œThe whole trip was impeccably organised with every detail really well thought through. To experience the landscapes and people we met along the way is something that will stay with us for a very long time โ€“ absolutely stunning, incredibly special โ€“ it felt a real privilege. And the food! Oh my goodness, we were fed so well too โ€“ in fact the meals we ate whilst on the trek were the best meals we had all holiday! – Sarah Loveday

I am proud to call Ahmed a friend – and I truly believe there really is no one better to explore Morocco with.
