Abdellah El Asely
My wish is to make you live your best trip. This is why all my choices of meetings, discoveries or accommodation are guided by this desire to transmit to you, through the Original Travels circuits, all the authenticity that a country can offer.
During my stays, I take the time, in each city, to visit hotels, lodges, and homestays. I only select those who have a particular soul, those who combine comfort and authenticity. In the desire to offer responsible tourism, I always favor small structures on a human scale to large hotel complexes.
In addition to the essentials, I would like you to discover preserved places, little known to foreigners. During my reconnaissance trips, I take the time to visit places off the beaten track to give you a different experience. The locals will welcome you as friends and will be happy to interact with visitors from around the world.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"We run tours in the following areas; Atlas mountains, Sahara deserts, imperial cities.
We specialise in Hiking trips, 4WD tours, luxury travels, Mountain biking, Family holidays, cultural tours, culinary trips."
How did you get involved in travel?
"Having grown up in the Atlas Mountains, my passion for adventure travel was kindled at an early age. I began my career in tourism industry since 2006, leading groups in the Atlas mountains and Sahara, then i started working as product manager for several local Tour operators before I decided to found OT. Voyages. Being a travel agent is inspiring others to explore new places, discover a new culture, and meet different and wonderful people."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Climbing Toubkal summit (4168m), North Africa's highest peak!
Reaching the top of the Toubkal summit (The highest peak on earth in the Berber language) was an overwhelming moment for me as a child and an unforgettable experience!

Just a few points:
- several seatbelts did not work in the van.
- one tour guide did spend a bit too much time taking our group to his market sellers who presented a tough sell for their product. It made for a long tour day - mentally. A bit more free time in the market would have been nice.

Trip of a lifetime!

Aug 1 - Aug 11, 2022
We had the most amazing time exploring Morocco with our guide (now someone we consider our friend and brother) Faysal! Not only is he so incredibly knowledgeable, but he is one of the warmest, kindest people we have ever met. He connected with every member of our family, and even arranged a special birthday dinner for one of the members of our group—with the band singing happy birthday and waitstaff bringing a cake with sparklers.☺️ We cannot say enough good things about Faysal, truly. ... read more

Morocco was a trip that I will truly never forget. I was in Morocco for 9 days with my boyfriend and Karim was our personal driver. Not only was he our driver, but he is also very knowledgeable with the rich history and culture of Morocco! Throughout our trip with Karim, he would explain to us interesting facts about Morocco and the Berber life which made this trip a truly unforgettable cultural experience.
Karim is extremely reliable, trustworthy, personable, communicative and also very... read more

We really enjoyed our 8 day trip around Morocco! It was extremely helpful to have Abdellah plan our itinerary. He listened to our priorities and made adjustments when we asked him to.

We also really liked our drive, Soufian, who was really friendly and punctual throughout the trip. All of the guides in each location were knowledgable and made exploring more interesting. ... read more

It is hard to put into words how wonderful our trip was. We really feel a special connection to Morocco after this trip and cannot wait to return. We felt very safe and well cared for during the entire trip - even when an incident outside of anyone's control happened, so many people sprang into action to ensure that we were cared for - we truly could not have asked for more. If you are considering visiting Morocco, you should. You will not regret it!! read more

He made sure to maximize the overlap of our itinerary with that of my brother's to make both of our trips memorable.

What I learned on this trip is that prices for the trip could vary depending on the local specialist you end up getting through Kim Kim. A friend of mine decided to visit Morocco the same time I was going. So she reached out to Kim Kim, got a different local specialist ended up with the same itinerary, same selected hotels, her stay was even slightly longer by two days as she also visited Casablanca and her cost was lower than mine. She also got superior accommodation than we did in terms... read more

Amazing experience, and something we'd never be able to coordinate ourselves without the Kim Kim team's local knowledge and detailed planning.
Our driver, Tarik, was brilliant. He adjusted the itinerary on the fly, helped us find the best coffee (critical!) every morning, even played with our kids and kept them entertained when they needed a break from tours and experiences.
Morocco isn't an easy place to travel around yourself (especially with three kids under 10) so Kim Kim was... read more

An incredibly intimate and special tour of Morocco that took us into small towns and to the shared tables of several local families.

So grateful to have discovered KimKim who connected me to Abdullah in Morocco!
