Extraordinary Morroco tour with Hassan - This journey across Morocco from Fes to the desert includes stunning landscapes, learning about local culture, surprises like feeding monkeys and riding dromaderies in the desert. The team was very kind and amenable, the bivouack tents comfortable (although bare in mind, because they include plumbing, they are located at the cusp of the desert, not quite in it), and Hassan is a gracious and friendly guide + driver. Thank you for the experience!

indescribable - We are two girls going on this trip and we would highly recommend going! We had our amazing guide Soufiane who drove us aroud in a car and showed us some beautiful places before arriving to the dessert. The whole experience was amazing and we are both unable to describe how amazing. The people at het camp were also kind and we felt really save as well.
If you want to see more of the country and of course the dessert i would recommend going.
The only thing that we would recommend is to go when it is a bit colder. If you go in the summer like we did maybe it is better to invest in the tent with aiconditioning. Otherwise you will be really hot at night.
