MOROCCO | A 9 Day Group Tour | Ep2: Sahara to Essaouira
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 бер 2020
- I recently got to travel around Morocco on a 9 day group tour.
This was my first time in the country and is documented in a new 2 part travel documentary series.
In this second episode we gradually make our way out of the Sahara; go looking for Morocco's famous goats in trees; stop at the old fortified market town of Taroudant; then head up the Atlantic coast to Essaouira, where we have 2 nights to explore the town. Finally we complete our trip back in Marrakesh with a beautiful hot air balloon ride.
The difference with this tour is it's the first one I've hosted and organised myself. Working with Intrepid Travel we created a bespoke itinerary and put it on sale to my followers.

Hamid is LEGENDARY 😂😂 ITS LIKE 95% OF MOROCCANS WITH SENSE OF HUMOUR AND ALWAYS SMILING, LOVE THIS COUNTRY 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦 THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY REALLY SPECIALY food 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is absolutely beautiful. I'm falling in love with my own country. Hope you'll come back again one day! 🇲🇦
I will for sure 😊
Yes Yasmine Our country is magic ❤️
Oh my to !!!
@@karlwatsondocs you should take more people open your own agency make deals with all hotels guides and restaurant sometimes they charge more. Then you pay everyone you experienced before a head of the time before your group arrive at Morocco. You can make a week tour package or a 10 days package and you chose your destinations
YASMINE KABLI I know!!!! It is soo beautiful to see all these amazing places. #proudtobemoroccan
Just cried my eyes out Karl! Honestly the best group tour EVER! Thanks for everything, Charlie xx 😊
Thanks for being part of it Charlie. (and for the footage ;) )
Pocket Trailblazer Yes....thank god you provided some decent footage otherwise this film would have really SUCKED!
Nepenthe Travel I know right...Karl needs all the help he can get! Ha ha 😉😉😉
Just like i were with u guys such amazing group a beautiful expérience i enjoy the trip with ya all
we still waiting for your vlog about your trip in morocco ..thank you again for your visit
This two videos was like watching a movie, i give it 9/10. beautiful experience ❤
Thanks 😊
Moroccans love and respect people who respect moroccans custums, livestyle , language and the whole culture. Morocco has a divers culture thus any one can be in Morocco
That is by far the best Morocco trip that I have seen on UTube. Thank you so much for filming. Hamed seemed like just the best guide you could ever wish to have as well.
On the back of this I am changing plans to visit Essaouira from Marrakech on my four day trip rather than head south to Ouarzazate. I also made a note of the Cote Ocean Mogador Hotel as well.
Nice, enjoy your trip :)
Me a Moroccan while watching this: wow Morocco looks amazing!
المغرب أجمل بلد في العالم.🙏
من القاهرة...تحياتي🙏
I absolutely loved the Morocco trip, very emotional, I even cried, this year has been crazy, and I miss traveling so so much! Great job Karl!
Thanks Raquel! 😊
You are welcom
Welcome 🇲🇦
Hamid and the driver are so sweet and kind i wich i could have them for dinner today
Morocco is absolutely stunning. And this is by far the best travel documentary I have seen on youtube. I had so much fun watching this while on a lockdown. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks very much 😊
It's not just a natural vlog it's a movie it's awesome great perfect lovely
Thanks really appreciate it 😊👍
Thanks Karl for sharing this amazing trip with us, that was really amazing !

👿
Welcome Bro :-)

@@khribechmohammed9547 I m over with that story (borders) a long time ago and I m glad that I have many moroccan friands all over the world 🌎
@@saywissdom dont mind stupid people, algeria and morocco are one country, we love yall, i couldnt feel more at home with algerian people❤🇲🇦
I miss Morocco so much, thanks so much for bringing me one of the sweetest memories I have had. Greeting from Japan 🇯🇵
What have we done to deserve this kind of quality content on yt? 🙌🏻
Haha thanks :)
I’m so happy this video showed up in my feed. My husband is from Marrakech and I love seeing others enjoying Morocco. I loved your visit to Essaouira as this is my favorite place in a Morocco. It’s difficult to explain to someone who hasn’t been there how different the feeling is there. The thing I loved most was your driver inviting your group into his home for tea. Moroccans are very hospitable and I hope that your this came across to the viewers. It was a truly lovely moment.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it :)
Karl Watson: Travel Documentaries is hamid living in marrakech
Ah, the good old days, when you could go out of your house and talk with people and even shake their hands. Nice vid, awesome group of folks. Let's hope the traveling days come back soon!
Feels like such a long time ago 😉
gab u are in Morocco now i watch u're vids bro , enjoy it as well
@@BigBoss-H Yep, it was an amazing three weeks, thanks for watching.
i'm from morocco and you made me live those amazing moments with you guys, welcome back again to morocco.. i suggest you guys to discover north of morocco like chefchaoun, asila, tanger.. moroccans are famous with their hospitality and sense of humor. Great video, greetings from marrakech
Thanks very much, yeah I’ll be back at some point to explore the north 😊
Same here
@@karlwatsondocs you haven't explored all of the south, Agadir, Tafraoute, Mirleft , Akhfennir and Dakhla
curva wydadi never said we had explored all of the south
This makes me want to join one of your trips. I've never been one for group tours but this looked like you all had such a wonderful time and made beautiful friendships.
Thanks. There’ll be plenty more tours in the future once we can do them!
omG i have tears in my eyes, my uncles are tourguides and this video takes me back 10years ago when i was young we used to always host foreings tourists to our house and have a cup of tea or a meal together moroccans are the most hospital pple in the world.
I loved how the group lived these 9 days.
There is one thing that everyone must learn from these vlogs that we are the same we can share happiness and love even if we have different religion or from different countries but life deserve unity and love.
It was an awesome experience thank you for the video
Unity and love is key to a better future. We are all one consciousness
I loved this so much! Is soo entertaining and the music is on point! I want to go to Morocco now
Thanks so much 😊
You’r welcome
welcome 😊😊
You are welcome anytime
It is clear from this documentary that Morocco is very safe and calm, this video is great, the pictures are beautiful, and the team is very nice. I loved Morocco from this video, you are all amazing
I’m Moroccan and I’m proud of my kingdom
كلنا الخاوا ♥️♥️🇲🇦
The whole world rapidly entering a state of quarantine.. at least I have something to do now THANKS! 😅
May as well binge watch my entire back catalogue 😜
Karl Watson: Travel Documentaries dammit, I already have, except for the ones mysteriously not available here.
True. Binge watching since Metro Manila is on quarantine.
yes
Esseouria looks a superb place. And that tea with his family was great. Well done for an excellent journal
Cheers mate!
Ehteurtyt8t
I honestly didn't want that to end. There's joy to be had in traveling, seeing new places, experiencing new cultures, doing things you never thought you were capable of. But when you're doing it as part of a group like that...well, that's just MAGIC. I'm certain that trip left an indelible mark on the lives of everyone who participated. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!!
Thanks for watching 😊
Amazing content, incredible editing... just perfect. You’re truly the best at what you do, Karl. Thank you for another great documentary.
Thanks very much Angela 😊
Hallo angela
Welecom Marrakech sexy lady
I love Essaouira specially when "Ghnawa festival" is on.... 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
🥺💗 opening up his home to you guys 💓
you welcome in Morocco ❤️
I watched this in 4K TV and home cinéma sound . i can say it’s the best pictures sounds music documentary ever seen about my country. The Baloon landing was epic like in the movies ! Thanks karl ;-)
Thanks very much :)
نوض اوا قالك سينما هههههههههه
You welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦 next time
we love you from Morocco ❤️🇲🇦❤️
What a breathtaking doco. I almost feel guilty watching this, it should be on pay TV the quality and editing is on point. I have laughed and cried and felt like l was there on the trip with you guys, the way you have shown a Country of contrasts Desert, Rural towns, bustling Cities and seaside coast what a beautiful Country with equally as lovely people. Karl you are a true storyteller.👍
Thanks very much!! Really appreciate it :)
@@karlwatsondocs: Im currently on "A taste of India" 👍👍👍
I'm morrocan, and I cried like a little bitch in this video.
Thanks to hamid and lahcen who presented the true moroccan spirit and heart.
Cheers to the unsung heroes.
Tanmirt.
Cheers 😊
this is what documentary should look like, unlike from those self-claiming so called “influencers” who have nothing to show but their OOTDs
Haha cheers 😊👍
I loved both videos of this trip more than I can say, you've done such a wonderful job of making it personable and showing the place, the people, the experience, without a bunch of fluff to bog the basics down. What a beautiful tribute to Morocco and it's people and the friends you made along the way, well done!!!! I look forward to watching more of your work in the future! Thanks for sharing your trip!
Thanks very much Cara :)
Morocco = Love 😍🇲🇦❤️
🇲🇦🇲🇦😍❤
Welcome again from a Moroccan Amazigh
Karl the tea with his family was amazing and this whole documentary has been fantastic and emotional, thank you.
You nailed it Karl! Awesome storytelling and beautifully crafted videos. In these uncertain times it was great to lose myself on the journey with you all! Keep up the brilliant work!
Cheers James appreciate it
Very good video❤😍
Good luck from Bangladesh🇧🇩💕
This group definitely needs to get back together for a part 2 ✌️ great content
Honesty, as Moroccan, you made me cry. So nostalgic. Thank you for the movie that I may entitle “Morocco where life is eternal”.
Thanks :)
Your two videos genuinely put a smile on my face after a tough day. Great group of people, great driver and a great tour guide! I think this might be the best 'travel in Morocco' video I've seen on UA-cam.
Thanks very much! Appreciate it 😊
Yes it is
Go back here, many scenic spots and beautiful cities are still welcome
Thnx for sharing this with, I miss my country
You showed a wonderful images
Am Moroccan and never saw those places
Thank you so much 🇲🇦🌹🇲🇦🌹
Dude your documentaries are awesome great job on all of them they are great inspiration to want to see and experience the world.
Thanks that's very kind :)
Hahaha Omg that was probably the best gift exchange ever! And your guide was one of the best guides in all your videos. I cant wait to see the Borneo trip. If you get to see or even hold an Orangutan ill be so jealous Orangutans and Elephants are my two favorite animals in the world. Thanks for this!
Thanks Lennie, yeah we’re going to an orangutan sanctuary
Cest magnifique et vive le Maroc🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦❤❤❤❤
SO HYPED TO WATCH THIS AND RELIVE IT AGAIN 😍😍😍😍😍
Yay! Can't wait to hear what you think :)

Welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦😊

You made me interact on this journey just as I was with you ,that when the documentary ended, I felt like I was leaving you with ,great job Karl 👏 jawad from morocco
Thanks very much 😊
Karl I might say of the many blogs iIview yours is one iI never want to miss. Your editing is so excellent. The pictures and their ordering tell the story and the happiness and enjoyment shine out. You were blessed by what seems 2 wonderful guides who moved it along and I suppose helped to gel the group.Once again you have produced something of a masterpiece in tour blogging and organisation, combined to a wonderful use of your editing skills.
Thank you for this i was indeed smiling all the way through and felt as if i was there and experiencing the event,
Thanks very much Paul!! Really appreciate that’s very kind 😊👍
12:03 Loool this part made my day xD i never thought i could enjoy 2hours of a travel documentary/vlog i enjoyed the two EP (y) greetings from Tangier Morocco, i miss the vibes of Essaouira
Thanks very much! :)
Loved it, absolutely loved it.
Thanks! :)
Beautiful, beautiful documentary. The tour guide deserves 100 STARS!!! The guy is a vibe. As for the 104 charlatans who DISLIKED this video, YOU NEED PRAYERS...
it really blows my mind,the whole group,the destinations ..... i felt like i am one of the group.Thanks Karl for this amazing films
Cheers thanks for watching 😊👍
Great videos mate. You really bring the video to make us all feel like we were the 14th guest on your trip!
Thanks :)
This was absolutely amazing! Watched both parts. I’m going to Morocco in October (God willing w this Coronavirus scare) in addition to Cairo and Dubai. . I was supposed to go w two other people but more than likely I’ll be going by myself now. I felt as if I was there with you all the entire time. The chemistry you all shared together came so naturally and again, I felt as if I was there with you. My trip will be Marrakesh, Essaouira and Agadir. Also have the Hot Air Ballon scheduled too. Thanks for a great video and I’ll be sure to watch the others!
Cheers Kenneth, hope you have a great trip there (and it goes ahead!)

Hello Karl Watson. I just came across your video(first episode) and I started watching then I forgot myself till I got myself finished it. And now I finished the second episode which is incredible and I am as a Moroccan you made me feel like oh that man and his friends had a great time here in Morocco, but too much respect and hospitality to the guide (Mohammed) and the driver (Lahcen) made that trip very easy and wonderful. I don't know what I have to say just thank you for this beautiful documentary and very very welcome to Morocco and all friends. I love traveling and that's what I do, but really you made this moment for me to be more proud of my motherland and their people 🙏🖤 really happy 😊🖤
Thanks very much Mohammed 😊

Thanks Debby 😊
I grew up with sitcoms and cartoons of the 80’s and 90’s that showed up what friendship could be. As I got older I gave up on ever feeling the love and companionship that I was shown, watching you all in this video has renewed my faith in what love and friendship really can become.
That’s great to hear 😊👍
i m so a proud to be moroccan ,this is really how morrocan ppls are , i was enjoying to watching this video i feel craying in many time ,i miss my cantry ,and thank you so much for this video ,
