Beautiful experience of a lifetime! - Absolutely wonderful experience! Our driver, Fares was so knowledgeable, kind, and considerate. Aziz walked us through Ait Ben Hadou with humor, energy, and knowledge of the amazing Kasbah. We met Navil in the Dades valley/Todra (sp) valley and he walked us through the beautiful gardens and Kasbahs. It was wonderful, so special and memorable! The camel ride into the camp was an experience unlike any we’ve ever had. Mohamed guided us on the camels, was so kind, and took fantastic pictures to mark the experience. The camp was beautiful, the drumming and dancing by the fire was absolutely wonderful! This trip will forever live in our hearts in the most special way!

Great desert experience! - We had a fantastic 3 day trip in the beautiful south east region of morocco. From my initial contacts with Mohammed, our trip facilitator, to the very last ones when we were wrapping up the very last details, I felt I was speaking to a real professional for whom my group’s needs were of high importance. Throughout this process, Mohammed has been available, flexible and all of our little requests ended up being Met. The tour itself was a treat. The team which came with us was good. The driver was very responsible and safe in his driving. The only improvement my group and I thought of is the amount of time that was actually spent in the desert. We ended up arriving right before sunset and left a bit after sunrise ( around 9). This did not leave much time for desert related activities. I would suggest the 5 day trip if it’s something of interest to you. Otherwise, the tour is set up to see the most beautiful things the region has to offer. The facilities in the desert were by the way extremely comfortable. Would definitely recommend trying this experience

AMAZING - Most incredible experience. Our driver Aissam was absolutely amazing, he was so organized and so knowledgeable as well. Everything was planned perfectly on this trip and the views were breathtaking. The drive to the desert does not even seem that long because of all the amazing stops along the way. The camel ride into the desert is breathtaking, as well as the camp we stayed at. Everyone was so helpful and so nice along the way. I cannot say enough about how great this trip was and how much of a pleasure it was to be driven by Aissam.

Great tour! - Loved the 3-day private desert tour from Marrakesh. Enjoyed all the stops made along the way to the desert. At every stop, we were handed off to a local Berber guide and they led the way and shared a lot of great info about what we were seeing. And our driver, Issam, was awesome! One thing to note - the overnight desert camp does not offer/sell alcohol, but you can bring your own and they will put it in the fridge for you. We really wished we had a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the Sahara. I wish we had known. Overall, the tour was smooth and really fun.

Amazing Tour - I highly recommend this agency (Deep South Travel) to anyone. I opted for a private, tailor made tour of 3 days (Ait Ben Haddaou, Rose Valley, Merzouga, Erg Chebbi) taking en account my special wishes (rose valley and Sijilmasa). Great service, camel trip and sunrise and sunset sightseeing. The luxury desert camp in the middle of the Sahara Desert was very clean and the friendly. A unique experience. Issam took care of me the whole time and made the trip a great experience. A friendly and empatic person, very professional and efficient. He really knows Marocco, his traditions and culture.
