"I would never travel with Ms. Wilson again, and I would also caution against traveling with her in the future. She markets herself as a worldly travel expert, when in reality she is clueless about anything involving travel except how to to complain to management. For example, several times during our trip, she expressed dismay and annoyance that our guide wa..." Read more

"I wish I could give zero stars... I experienced extreme unprofessionalism in every interaction with Valerie. It began on our very first day when she yelled at our Turkish guide in front of a few of us guests. The mosque was closed for Ramadan and our guide refused to bribe the mosque's guards or pay someone to stand in line for us. Following this, Valer..." Read more

"Her attitude was not acceptable, she treated our Tour guide poorly and she tried to bribe the People to get into iaSophia with the money in front of everyone and insulted tour guide and personally I was not happy and I was shocking the way how she talk to our tour girl and she thinks that she can treat people the way she want because she's from America..."

"I do not plan on booking any more trips with Valerie and have unfollowed her on Instagram. She was completely flippant and outright rude and disrespectful to many of the service industry employees making for an uncomfortable and embarrassing experience. She treated Sebnem as if she was her personal assistant and would override and contradict her in front o..." Read more

"Nicole was a poor host. She selectively engaged with the group. Most times she sat at the back of the bus and just spent time with her bff/photographer. The was notably disrespectful. There was obvious tensions between her and our wonderful Moroccan guide on multiple occasions which introduced tension to the group. Her photographer, was at times her "spokes..." Read more

"Can be nice but unapproachable. I didn't like the way she screamed at our tour guide. Very disrespectful over something as simple as him following the itinerary. I wasn’t pleased with how she didn’t really talk to the girls until the end of the trip. If you’re the host you should be showing us what you love about the country, instead she focused more on..."

"Rachel could have been better. She started off great. However her attitude and cultural acceptance declined almost immediately. She talked behind girls backs, she told one girl that she wanted girls to sign waivers of physical fitness while she promotes that everyone can travel even big girls. She was cruel to the travel guide. The whole groups Demeanor plum..." Read more

"I feel that someone who has traveled to morocco in the past should have definitely done the research on accommodations, transportation, locations, and timing. I felt it was disrespectful that everything was disorganized and my time as well as others were not valued."

"It was fun getting to meet Ally and sitting down to really talk with her, thus seeing how down-to-earth and kind she is and that she gives good advice. However, I didn't feel like I quite fit in with the values of her and the group. Everyone was so focused on vanity--posing, taking pictures, always having the perfect outfit on--that I really didn't..." Read more

"Host wasn't on our trip I took a previous trip with this host and found her to be more like a "catfish", portrays one thing online and is very different in person (not at all an active person, first trip she needed help on/off the van every time, also required a lot of attention and was doing/saying things to incite that) Every single member of my fi..."

"Frankly, I don't care who the "host" is and I chose this trip because the itinerary hit all of the spots I wanted to see. I could not have cared less who Trova chose as a host. That said, I never got the impression that she was interested in being part of the group. She was not particularly personable or chatty. She was friendly and polite, nothin..." Read more

"Very unlikely. I could do a better job for cheaper and stay in much nicer resorts by doing research beforehand. "

"Our host was vastly under prepared. I think its a bare minimum to be present during the first day which she was not. She told us she just needed to be there at dinner, well then why does trova require you to come a day early??? Additionally, the welcome dinner is a pivotable time to introduce yourself and meet your group. She asked maybe 3 of us our names..." Read more

"Laura Whaley shouldn't even be a host to anything! It was Like she wasn't even there. Completely ignored the entire group, didn't speak, didn't even smile. It felt as she thought she was better than all of us. Never again will I travel With this host. And Trova should stop working with this host as she will destroy your review and imagine..." Read more

"Our host, Laura Whaley, was the biggest disappointment of the whole trip. I saw our exact itinerary on Intrepid's website for $1,000 dollars less, which means our group literally paid $1,000 extra to have Laura host our trip. By the end of the trip, I don't think she even knew all of our names. I have never seen anyone so disinterested in getting t..." Read more

"I would not recommend this host company. Our two onsite hosts did a nice job managing the tour however I don't think they were step up for success in how the trip was planned. "
