Textiles, Tajines, Camels, and Goats, Oh, My! ~ November 2021
Behind the Scenes Adventures的点评
点评:(I participated in this tour in November 2021 - not any of the dates available in Trip Advisor's drop down menu.)
Morocco is over the top amazing – the sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and COLORS are so intense! The Textiles and Tajines Tour is a marvelous blend of yes, textiles and tajines, but also culture, history, and architecture, with camels and goats thrown in for good measure! Our riads (inns) were absolutely charming. The trip was a wonderful, well-planned experience.
Cynthia is SO knowledgeable and knows so many of the artisans personally. Our guide, Ali, was always gracious and made small adjustments to the tour to bring different travelers to shops that might have items in which they had expressed interest. Ali could expound at length on art, architecture, history, politics, education, health care, cuisine, and naturally, textiles. I learned so much! Abdel, our driver, was always smiling and willing to help lift a heavy suitcase crammed with textile purchases. Absolute highlights were the cooking classes, camel excursion, and a visit to a school where we were able to donate books AND all of the private meetings and demonstrations with textile and cuisine experts. Our particular tour in November of 2021, threaded the window between Delta and Omicron and artisans, families, innkeepers, and shopkeepers were so pleased to be welcoming back tourists after the pandemic shutdowns. When I returned from Morocco, I promptly signed up for another tour with Cynthia and Behind the Scenes Adventures. It has been worth every penny!

摩洛哥是最令人惊叹的——风景、声音、味道、气味和颜色都如此强烈! Textiles and Tajines Tour 是纺织品和 tajines 的奇妙结合,还有文化、历史和建筑,骆驼和山羊也加入其中!我们的里亚德(旅馆)绝对迷人。这次旅行是一次美妙的、精心策划的体验。
辛西娅知识渊博,认识很多工匠。我们的导游 Ali 总是很亲切,对旅行进行了细微的调整,以将不同的旅行者带到可能有他们表示感兴趣的商品的商店。阿里可以详细阐述艺术、建筑、历史、政治、教育、医疗保健、美食,当然还有纺织品。我学到了很多!我们的司机阿卜杜勒 (Abdel) 总是面带微笑,愿意帮忙提起一个装满纺织品的沉重手提箱。绝对的亮点是烹饪课、骆驼游览、参观一所我们可以捐赠书籍的学校,以及与纺织和烹饪专家的所有私人会议和演示。我们在 2021 年 11 月的特别旅行穿过了 Delta 和 Omicron 之间的窗口,工匠、家庭、旅店老板和店主非常高兴在大流行关闭后欢迎游客回来。当我从摩洛哥回来时,我立即报名参加了辛西娅和幕后历险记的另一次巡演。每一分钱都是值得的!
