Amazing Moroccan desert experience - I came to Morocco as a solo female traveler, and wanted to find the perfect group trip. I enjoyed the 2 days, and we were able to see much more of Morocco than other tours. We stopped in the Atlas Mountains, in a few different towns for lunch and photos, and of course the desert. Definitely the best value for experiencing a lot in a short amount of time, getting a feel for the Moroccan culture. Spending the night in the desert was amazing- something everyone needs to experience! Hicham was great at communicating before the trip and made sure everything went smoothly. Our driver, Ali, was amazing- he did a lot of driving over the 2 days and kept us safe with a smile the entire time. Our camel guides were great, and my group enjoyed our time around the fire talking, dancing, and stargazing. I am already looking forward to my next trip to Morocco for a longer trip with Hicham! ** a few pieces of advice- 1. make sure to bring multiple bottles of water and Dirhams, especially a few coins. At each stop there are restrooms that you must pay 2-4 to use. Additionally, many of the stops for water and food only take cash. There are different guides for the camel camping part of the trip, and while the price is included they do an amazing job and their tip is separate from the overall guide. 2. Get a good night sleep before the trip. It is a long 2 days, we rode the camels at sunset followed by tea, dinner, dancing around the fire, and stargazing, so did not get much sleep. We woke up around 6 for sunrise which was incredible **

We had little time but we got so much for our time and money. He is a great person and guide who will go out of his way - This was an amazing experience! Two days with the best tour guide, Hisham. He treated us like family and we highly recommend him.

Sahara, Atlas mountain tour - It was a life-time experience and I would highly recommend, the scenery and the wildness of the surroundings are from a movie set. I think it's the perfect trip for 2 days, the tour guide was a absolute legend 10/10 I would happily do it again....

Happiness - It was the trip of my life. When I had some problems the guide found ALWAYS a soluton. He let me see the best pictures of the trip. Hé was never in a hurry. He also told me about the culture. Very interesting. Everyone should make this trip. Next time I stay longer. There is still so much to see, to hear, and to feel...

Incredible experience - We took a 5 nights 6 days tour with Hicham, we travel all around Morroco and got a good sense of the Arabic culture. We visited Marrakesh, ouzazarte, merzouga (Sahara desert), Fez and Chefchauen. We got to explore so much with our time limitation and Hicham made sure to keep track of the time, always helping us to be on time and worrying about all the details for us to enjoy our vacation.
