The night in the desert has been a before and after. Thanks to the agency that organized everything so professionally - We made the trip with Explorare Marocco. 6 days from Marrakech to the Cheg Ebi Desert, through the Gorges of Dades, the ksar of Ait Ben Hadu. It has been an unforgettable experience. The organizer, drivers, Riads staff, etc., have been 10, there is no but in the whole tour. I am sure it will already be my trusted agency for the next Trips to Morocco that I will make.

Breathtaking glimpse from The Thousand and One Nights - We had a really good time here and everything went according to plan. The travel from Marrakech was be a bit tiring for some, you better bring a book to read and good music. Anyways, the comfort offered by the glamping tents on the edge of the dunes of Erg Chebbi were worth the journey. We just loved this camel ride desert experience and got fascinated by the starry night. Amazing food. Recommended.
