      About the Instructor

      Nicole (RYT 200, MBA) is a California native, registered yoga teacher and a holistic health coach.  She fell in love with the Islamic World while studying Art History at UCLA, which lead her to spend a semester abroad in Ankara Turkey.  Five years later, while pursuing her International MBA, she spent a year abroad in Fez, Morocco, Irbid, Jordan, and Beirut, Lebanon.  She is passionate about curating meaningful travel experiences that emphasize cultural understanding and personal growth.  As a yoga instructor and health coach, she creates space for her clients and students to slow down and tune in.  She believes that developing skills to remain calm and centered empower us to step outside of our comfort zone and welcome adventure and expansion.  Nicole is thrilled to lead Morocco Yoga & Culture retreat and share her love of Moroccan culture, yoga, and wellness.

      Wonderful experience! I highly recommend this company. Well organized trip with excellent guide, Hicham, and reliable driver, Fettah. Our accommodations were very nice, private and safe. The food was very yummy in all recommended restaurants. Go! Experience Morocco and all it's beautiful sights and bold colors.

      More than I could have imagined! The best guide who made us feel like family, amazing food, perfect accomodations with attentive staff, and the perfect blend of history, adventure, and relaxing at the spa. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

      We had an amazing time in Morocco. The Experience Morocco team (Rabiaa, Amal) were so responsive and understand, from helping plan the trip (with so many changes on my end, working through various iterations and dates) to all the information that helped us get excited for the trip (but didn't give away every little surprise!). We had a driver during our stay (Nour) and I must say that is a game changer. He was able to provide feedback on our on-the-spot questions, chat about culture, and was our go-to person for getting around. The hotels, especially the Olinto in Atlas, was stunning and peaceful. Highly recommended!

      I had the most wonderful trip, thanks to the people at Experience Morrocco who were worked patiently with me in building the perfect itinerary and in ensuring its stress-free execution.

      We had a great time. Morocco is great and Experience Morocco made it better. I'm very please with the schedule and how all went flawless. Many kudos to our driver and guide at times, Mustapha. He was absolutely amazing. The tour guides were also very knowledgable and knew all the shortcuts in the city. The highlights for us, were the Sahara desert luxury camp, the hot air ballon and the sidecars rides. The medinas in Fes and the Square/market in Mahakesh.

      We had an amazing experience with Experience Morocco! From suggesting the perfect itinerary to selecting fantastic hotels, everything was top-notch. Bobouker, our driver, was exceptional, and having one point person for all our needs made the trip even more enjoyable. The communication was great throughout, and the private tours with knowledgeable guides were a highlight. I highly recommend this travel agent for anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable travel experience!

      We just finished 8 day tour of Morocco with Experience Morocco. Zakaria Hammouda who drew us around starting from Casablanca till Marrakesh was one of the best person who could have taken us places. His knowledge of each place and making sure our comfort is always maintained at the highest level was incredible. Places planned by experience Morocco was very good. They and Zakaria were always open to adjust to our plans. We highly recommend Experience Morroco and give 5 star rating to Zakaria.
