Upon arrival, please complete immigration formalities if necessary and claim your luggage. If your program includes airport arrival transfers, check your voucher for specific instructions, as they may vary by destination. In most cases, you will be met after collecting your luggage or passing through Customs by the local representative holding an EDEN MOROCCAN TOURS sign and/or a sign with your name on it. In some instances, you may be instructed to walk a short distance to a transportation counter. The company’s name and location will be printed on your voucher.
If for any reason you do not connect with the EDEN MOROCCAN TOURS transfer personnel, please go to the Tourist Information Desk and ask them to page the EDEN MOROCCAN TOURS representative or call the phone number listed on your voucher. If you are delayed due to lost luggage, please call the number on the voucher or ask a companion to exit the Customs area to inform the transfer representative.
Be cautious of airport scammers offering unsolicited assistance. If you are arriving without a pre-arranged transfer, we strongly recommend visiting the Tourist Information Desk to request a licensed taxi or transfer service. You may be asked to pay for the transfer at the desk prior to departure; this helps ensure you are not charged extra during the trip.
