Wonderful experience! - The trip was great! Each of the locations we visited was so beautiful, especially the Sahara desert and Chefchaouen. We truly had a wonderful time and learned a lot about the culture and history. The hotels (riads) we stayed at were very comfortable and the staff there was so kind and helpful. The restaurants we stopped at were also great! Our tour guide Omar was awesome! He was easy to contact, incredibly respectful, flexible with our changing start times (we wanted to stay longer in some places), and drove us safely to every location. Highly recommend him for future trips! We wish we could’ve stayed longer and spent more time in each city but we will definitely return to explore more of this beautiful country!

Amazing experience to Sahara - This tour is a great way to visit the amazing Sahara desert, very convenient as while you keep expenses within budget you visit many jewelry during the way. We did all the stops noted in the program and our guide was very attentive to explain all the details around those points. Also very supportive to anything we may need, thank you for all your help Ahmed.

Desert tour - The view is great! Camel and sandboarding is def highlight of the trip. Guide and driver are nice. Just the food is not that good, same thing for every lunch is a bit boring.

The Sahara was great, but would have gone with the basic option - I think this tour had many highs, but also many improvements that can be made. Don't get me wrong, the Sahara desert was an amazing experience that I do not regret. HOWEVER, if I were to do this tour again, I would NOT splurge for the the luxury option. This tour had several options between the basic tour option for 80 euros/day, the luxury option for 170 euros/day, and an in between option that I don't know the details of. While I enjoyed how our luxury tour was private and the camp in the desert was quite nice, I do not believe it was worth an extra 90 euros per person. Throughout the tour, I felt that our tour guides rushed us at times (sometimes justified) and really only provided as an intermediary between the local guides in each city. I felt that for the price of the tour, it would have been better to just go with the basic option. Throughout the tour, we made the same stops as the other 80 euro tour groups, so I do feel that we would have received the same experience other than the privacy. While I understand that there was a strict schedule that we weren't really aware of, I feel that there should be more time designated to be spent in the desert. The 2 things about the tour that I disliked the most was 1. the food options were kind of terrible for 120 dirhams/meal per person AND 2. At the end of the tour, our tour guide was really hovering over us and tracking whether each of us had left a review yet, particularly a good one. Even going as far as confronting one of participants for giving a 4 star review, instead of 5. To reiterate, I very much appreciated the effort that was put into this tour and enjoyed my experience, but would have made different decisions at the start.

Great desert trip but don't get luxury tour - While the overall experience was great (sunset and sunrise camel rides into camp, sandboarding, and great views in Ouarzazate), the tour itself was just alright. Includes local guides at a few different sites like Tineghir and Ait benhaddou village but our guide in the car didn't provide much info at all. Breakfasts and dinners included were pretty good. Lunch stops were often buffets on your own dime and not very good, but no choice as to where we could go. Not worth splurging on the luxury tour in my opinion, similar experience to other tour tiers with slightly better accommodation but no other difference. Lots of drive time with no guidance/explanations. Also didn't like how the guide pressured us to leave a positive review before leaving the van, confronting less positive reviewers.
