Amazing 3 day tour in the desert! - Amazing 3 day tour in the desert. Great group & guides very well organised. Thanks to Houcine our main guide and driver. Always smiling and caring for all the group. We also had 2 intesresting guided tours included learning more about the region. The lunches were correct for the price (not included). We learn a lot from the local craftsmanship with no pressure to buy anything. People were very welcoming and passionate about their work. I highly recommend the tour!

Great tour but a lot of driving - Ali our tour guide was great! Riding the camels into the desert and staying in the desert camp was the highlight of the trip. The dunes are truly beautiful. Our booking however did NOT include an air conditioned tent, so be mindful of that when booking. There was the option to pay to upgrade to AC which I highly recommend doing—we did not and it was very hot even at night. While the evening/night/sunrise in the desert was truly amazing, the journey is a lot of driving—the last day is fully spent driving back. I am prone to feeling a bit nauseous if I am driving for extended hours so be mindful of that if that applies to you. You will also need cash (Durhams) to purchase things at stops, so make sure you bring at least 50-100 durhams with you.

Fairytale night in the Sahara - Overnight in a luxury tent in the middle of the fabulous desert! Staff and director of the facility enegugliabili including Hassan with his dromedary to get there. Night in a tent and dinner with Super breakfast, an experience in this structure to try at least once in a lifetime, highly recommended!

Excellent experience! - Excellent experience with the most friendly guides Hakim and Brahim. As someone who has done both a 1-night tour and a 2-night tour I definitely recommend the 2-night tour. It is much more pleasant to go through the cities more slowly, see more cities and of course rest along the way. Guides Hakim and Brahim have given everything to put us at ease and have always found a solution to our needs. Hakim drove very safely which is of course very important during such a long road trip. Ait ben haddou, Tinghir, the Canyon and of course the Desert were breathtakingly clean. It is nothing like the pictures. The various local guides in these cities have of course also been a lake value for this trip. Especially Rachid in Tinghir with his brilliant knowledge of several languages a big impression. To conclude, I would like to thank Hakim and Brahim again and say that this is a must-do in Morocco.
