Tipping is not a natural part of many Western cultures and many of us feel uncomfortable, or unsure, about when, or how much, to tip. However, in the places you will visit, tipping makes up a significant part of many people's wages so it's important that we get it right. For this reason we've developed a very simple system to take all the hassle out of tipping. With our 'tipping made easy' policy, a nominal pre-determined amount is collected from all group tour participants to cover tips en route. This then saves you the hassle of when and how much to tip bellhops, luggage handlers, local guides and other support staff through the tour. Our 'tipping made easy' doesn't include a tip to your group tour leader. Naturally, though, the amount is up to you as tipping is an entirely personal gesture.

Tour Reviews

The tour was perfect for us. Not to strenuous and ideal for older people. From the start to finish all went well. The Guides were excellent, the hotels and ryad were also excellent. Travel and drivers also very good. If possible a bit more of a tour of Casablanca would have been welcome . Overall we would recommend On the Go Tours. Many thanks for the experience.

The tour was generally very good, however the guide we had did the minimum, normally when we have been I. Tours with On The Go, guides have told us about the history and landscape on the journey, he just about managed to tell us when to meet him The hotels were generally good, however we booked an extra night and we were put in a very out of town hotel instead of the first hotel we had which was very central

Excellent - Jamal was very good, attentive, informed and organised.

Tour guides were excellant throughout, very accomodating and informative. Found our first nights hotel below standard for a 4 star rating and did not compare with the other hotels on tour. Would have liked to spend more time in Marrekesh.
