Amazing experience, highly recommend - Our desert trip in Morocco was so much fun! The drive through the stunning landscapes, the camel ride, and watching the sunset over the dunes were all unforgettable. The hotels we stayed at were super comfortable and really added to the experience. We also got to visit some beautiful villages along the way, which gave us a real taste of Moroccan food and culture. The itinerary ended up not being exactly as described, but we had plenty of activities and we felt taken care of. A big shoutout to our driver, Mohammed! He was so friendly and made sure everything went smoothly. He really went above and beyond to make the trip special for us. Highly recommend!

Incredible experience, absolutely surreal - Absolutely amazing experience. For the first half of the trip it was just the 2 of us and are glad that they didn't cancel it. We had a private tour and Moha was incredibly knowledgeable and showed us some great photo opportunities. He was an excellent driver and made the experience even better with his energy and enthusiasm. The sunset camel ride was incredible and it was surreal to be able to drive round the dunes in a 4x4. Our time in the desert ended with some sandboarding before watching the sunset a second time. For the trip to Fes, we were with a full group and a new driver. It was a long journey, but there were plenty of stops and we saw some monkeys on the way through. It was an awesome experience and would definitely recommend doing the 4 days over a shorter time.

Unique desert experience from Fez to Marrakech 10/10! - Advance booking of the tour online went fine; as did the payment platform. Communication in advance could be more proactive. Where and at what time you will be picked up, we had to check ourselves in our case. Anyway, they were always present at the promised places and promised times! Once on our way from Fez to Merzouga, the driver tells us that our program has changed and that we sleep in the desert one night earlier. Why, he could not tell us (because of our lack of Arabic and his lack of English). Afterwards it turned out that the day after that much more wind and clouds would come and that by switching this would benefit our experience. Chapeau! The night in the tent camp was beautiful. Particularly luxurious experience that was far beyond expectations! The next day we go out with Hassan. He shows us beautiful places in the (black) desert and lets us taste the berber existence. He also takes us to an abandoned quarry and an oasis. At the end of the afternoon he drops us off in a beautiful hotel in the shape of a kasbah. Beforehand we did not know exactly what kind of accommodation was included, but again far beyond expectations. The last two days we go out with Muhammad. A very experienced driver who speaks super good English. He takes us to various beautiful places (canyon, studios, etc) and drives with us a beautiful route through the Atlas Mountains. He also knows how to tell us about the places where we pass, but do not stop. That makes the trip even more active. He has all the attention and care for his passengers. We really appreciate that! Once in Marrakech he drops us off at our riad. All in all; a super experience we would recommend to anyone!

Great experience and well organized - We did the 4 day tour from Fez to Marrakech. We had 2 different drivers. Moha and Hassan were both good drivers. The first day was with Moha and with a nice company of 8. Other 3 days with Hassan and was private. Really top arranged and accommodations were good with good food and we had 2x a hotel with pool. The tent in the desert was a great experience, had a normal toilet and hot water! I definitely recommend the trip, in the future we would need 3 days. 1 extra day in the desert was no added value for us. The quad biking is highly recommended.

Better than expected - In general everything was better than expected and I couldn't recommend this tour and operator enough. For starters we book a share tour but 3 of the four days where for my sister and I, which was quite a surprise and where amazed that the tour wasn't cancelled. The car had aircondition and all the drivers that we had where quite nice. Even though some spoke some broken english we manage to communicate and have a good time. Regarding the activities the first 2 days are Ok nothing astonishing along the way but a couple of nice stops. It is definitely the price you have to pay to get to the Sahara. The first hotel was the most aligned with our expectations, so nothing fancy but clean with OK food. The 2 days at the sahara was very nice, the camp included was way better than the standard camping that we where expected and more like glamping, the tend had private bathroom and shower and the bed was king size. The second night we stayed at a very nice hotel and a a 3 hours 4x4 ride around the desert which was very cool, and add to fact that ended up being a private one. The ride to fes is more driving that anything else with some Ok stops in the way. Even though there is a lot of driving involve in going to the sahara If you are up for it I would recommend this tour without a doubt

Wonderfull - We were on our tour with driss. This dude was the best guide we could have wished for and we got him. He was literally the bedt guide we had in over 20 countries worldwide! He's speaking good english, arabic and frensh and he is willing to explain everything. If you want to know everything he is the right guide, if you just want to just be driven around he is also the right guy. The tour was also very nice and we could always say what we want and driss would make it happen. Take this tour, ask for driss and enjoy your trip in the wonderful country of morocco!

5-star tour - Very nice tour, largely met our expectations. Hassan, our Guide, showed us all the most beautiful spots from Marrakech to Fez, passing through oases, traditional villages and the desert (where he comes from). Hassan is very prepared, speaks several languages and is always available to the group for any request and need.

Great once in a life time experience - I booked the tour via online agent/platform. Communication was good, and we were assigned to a very nice driver/tour guide name Hassan (forgive me if spell wrong). Had great time in the desert. Schedule changed slightly for good reason as there was a market on Thursday. We were given a brief of history and culture in the market by a shop owner. At the end he tried to sell rug but it happened I did want to buy a rug (without mentioned to anyone) so I didn't mind at all. The 4th day from desert to Fez we were assigned to different driver/guide, was a very long 11 hrs day. Had several stops but only for toilet/food, not much to see and do tbh. The hotels and camp they booked us in were all good (considering the rural environment). Would recommend this tour.
