Additional Information

Day 01: We will fetch you from your Marrakech-based hotel. Our journey begins with the breathtaking Tizi n’Tichka Pass in the High Atlas mountains. We continue through numerous Berber settlements, reaching the desert where oases and hillside Kasbahs dot the barren landscape. A break for lunch is followed by a drive to the Valley of the Roses, showcasing the stunning vistas of the Dades Valley. En route to Dades, we’ll make a stopover at the Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou. We spend the night in Dades.

Upon reaching the dunes around 4p.m., a short rest precedes a camel ride into the dunes. We spend this night comfortably in Berber tents, witness a mesmerizing sunset, and savor a hearty dinner.

Day 03: Awaken to the glory of an enrapturing sunrise and indulge in a hearty meal at the campsite. A subsequent camel ride takes us back to the auberge. From here, it’s a long drive to Fes, with a scenic route via the Ziz Valley and Middle Atlas.

Wonderful experience with the BEST guide/driver - This was one of the most beautiful experiences. Our driver/guide, Jamal, was one of the kindest people I’ve ever toured with. He made our experience so comfortable, was so informative on the drive, stopped at so many places to just to show us the cool and interesting spots, and was so incredibly accommodating. The desert was mesmerizing, the drive was so beautiful, and Jamal made our experience complete. Can’t say enough good things about this tour and Jamal.

3 day trip - We had a great trip. Karim was our guide. From the moment he met us at our Riad in Fes, to the moment he dropped us off at our Riad in Marrakech he was very thoughtful, informative, accommodating and fun to be with.. We squeezed in a lot of sights and experiences in three days. Karim was eager to shift gears when something looked interesting. We also appreciated what a conscientious driver Karim is! We also thoroughly enjoyed our excursion into the desert. We did the trip in reverse. Jamal was very flexible in reversing the trip. He was also very responsive in the pre-planning. I found the Toubkal Guide company recommended in two guide books. They lived up to their reputation.

Once in a lifetime experience! - The first two days were an on-going procession of stunning sights - snow-capped Atlas mountains, twisting roads, amazing views, Berber villages. All these sights culminating in the majestic Sahara. Then the exotic experience of the desert: the sand,the camels, the grandeur. To all this, we had two terrific guides. Hassan, our wonderful driver-always safety-conscious, knowledgeable and considerate. And Ahmed. An unforgettable person full of positive energy, passionate about Morocco, telling tales of local yore, bouncing from language to language, smiling, laughing, singing, dropping philosophical gems, and,at all times, sensitive and caring for his clients. He energized everyone and left us with memories. Thanks, Ahmed. Ron and Pat (Canada)

Unforgettable experience - Had fun and enjoyed my 3 day ttip woth Ibrahim. He was very helpful and a great guide and driver. He let me choose and see decide on what to do on this trip and suggesting wht to do or not. He also prepare a surprise birthday cake for my celebration at the desert. Would never forget all the places and experience Ive had during this short trip with Toubkal guide. Wishing to return back and explore more of Morocco. Definitely recommends this company for efficient and great communication.

Amazing Tour with the best driver Jamal ! - After a slightly late start to the first day this was more than made up to us from the company. We were given a nice 7 seated Mercedes van with AC and met our brilliant driver Jamal. During the start of our tour Jamal received some bad news yet still continued with our tour with a smile on his face. Our first day we still got to see everything we wanted and given the freedom to explore at each stop along the way and our food was great both lunch and dinner at the hotel which was really nice and had a great view over the valley. Our driver Jamal was a great driver and was very relaxed. He was always happy to help us with any questions we had. The start of the second day was great as we got to explore the amazing views over the valley and made our way to the sand dunes. We stopped at the gorges and was given loads of time to explore. The overnight experience in the sahara and camel ride was surreal and the food provided was great too and one of the best tangines we had. The hotels were great and provided exactly what we needed and even had enough time for a dip in the pool. The last day mainly consisted with lots of driving but we still had plenty of stops and time to explore each one and got to see some monkeys! Overall would highly recommend this tour from marrakech to fes and for the price we felt was reasonable especially for a private tour. The highlight of this tour was meeting and having Jamal as our driver. The dedication and enthusiasm he had deserves to be rewarded and he was also a great photographer for our group. We cannot praise Jamal enough and his strength to carry on the tour after receiving bad news. A huge thank you to Jamal! We miss you already
