AMAZING EXPERIENCE - Best time ever!! Riding the camels at sunset was magical and the camp was so fun. The stars were so incredible we slept outside on the rugs! Rachid, our driver, made the trip so worth it for us!! He was so fun and taught us Arabic phrases to use and helped us practice, we had fun listening to music on the road and learning about things on the drive. We decided not to make all of the stops on the way back but ended up being invited for dinner with rachids family and it was delicious and beautiful!! Once in a lifetime experience.

Abdullah, great driver! Nice desert experience! - We had the pleasure to meet Abdullah in our tour In Morroco. He is a very good driver, safe, entertaining and punctual. I would highly recommend him for every trip in that country, for his expertise and good knowledge of the country. Gabriela, Romania

Great road trip - If you have time, I highly recommend the 3 days trip to Merzouga but for those who are in a hurry, this is a good option too. Long road, expect many hours in the bus but enough stops as well and beautiful landscape to enjoy on the way (mountains, canyons, valleys, lots of palms trees...). A bit too hot for me to truly enjoy the camel ride. But the minivan had AC (which actually worked and kept us cool). Farid, the driver, is very friendly, polite, respectful, knows a lot about his country and about berber culture, he is patient, speaks good English and (very important) he is an excellent driver. The entire trip was great because he did his job very well, I felt safe and cared for. Shukran Jazilan!

Interesting experience - It was a very interesting experience. but as others have written, what they are selling is something and you receive much less. Firstly, in all excursions you ll book know that you will share the bus with people that have booked from other agencies (personally I don't mind). The travel agencies mix the people together to save money probably so they share the same bus and driver. Regardless, it was a nice experience, but if you have time go for three days and not one. It is a very long trip from Marakkech (with many curves on the roads so you get dizzy) and it is exhausting. Be prepared for the toilets which are holes on the floor, women take TOILET ROLL WITH YOU anywhere you go, in the evening it is freezing in the desert, (if you are easily disgusted, take pillow cases with you, even a bed sheet. I don't think they wash those blankets frequently). Mohammed and the guys are nice, they sang and played the drum in the evening. but of course like everybody else, at the end they ask you for tips. so have some extra money with you. I asked the specific travel agent whether the tend was private and he said yes. well it was not. We shared it with two more people, so four in general. And he also said that we were supposed to stop at the cinema thing to see a movie or something for the movies that took place in Ourzazate. That did not happened. what he meant is that we will pass from OUTSIDE to take a photo. I can google the photo, why would i need to pass outside to take one! pointless. We also went to AĂ¯t Benhaddou, the guide there was horrible. he did not even take us high up. He only took us to the shop of his friend at the end for just five minutes, and ofcourse he said the price was fix. Guess what, it wasnt. We bargained hah. and at the end they take you at a restaurant with a horrible pizzas (lidl has better ones), and asks you to pay him, 30MAD. I WANTED TO REFUSE. HE WASNOT WORTH IT. the guide in our previous tour in Ouzoud was great, and he deserved the tips. This guide tho did not.

What they are seling is something and you receive less - We booked the 2 day trip to Zagura and we received a good price with the condition to go next day. They shown us a lot of pictures, told us about the trip and they also told us that we will have a guide. So, in the next mornig there was someone that picked us from the riad and we went togheter at the bus but than we changed 3 times the bus before to go on the trip and that was not so nice. The guide that was promised was the driver but he did't gave us any information. In the same bus we were people from diffrent travel agencies and it was irritating that the bus driver was stopping only the shops and restaurants of his freiends that for sure had " best prices" for us. I was not expevting very much from the tent camp so I was not so disappointed, 4 or 6 peoples in a tent and the food quality and quantity was not so good. The experience was nice because we have now some new friends from Germany and France and we also learned how is the culture in Marocco.
