Real taste of life in Morocco - If you want to get a really good insight into the real Morocco then I couldn’t think of any one better than Abdul. He is particularly knowledgeable about the history of the country, and during our trip to the Atlas Mountains everyone seemed to know and respect him; and with good reason. He would stop to give out sweets to children as well as sometimes giving them a lift home from school which was several miles up the mountain(!) and it was this kindness and humanity which impressed us the most. But despite being passionate and sometimes quite serious about life and current affairs in his country, he also had a very good sense of humour and we found the whole journey to be a really enjoyable experience, one which we hoped wouldn’t end! Good luck in the future and we would certainly recommend you to anyone thinking of going to Marrakesh. We hope to meet you again Abdul!

A Journey to Remember - A nice trip with a great driver. Driver Rami with his mini bus rigen company HMT, has made the trip of three days extra pleasant with his years of experience. The camps and the camel tour was an exceptional experience

3 day trip Marrakech to Merzouga - This trip is definitely recommended. Wow, we've had our eyes peeled. During the ride enjoyed the different landscapes and the coziness of our driver and each other in the bus. Our driver Rami from the company HMT has years of experience and knows all the bumps in the road and knows how to avoid them. The Sahara was beautiful the camel ride and the sunset an unforgettable experience. We spent the night in a tent that is equipped with every luxury. Naziha Senoussi

Purely tourist - Well .. already it is not 3 days in the desert but 2 days with 1 day drive back to Marrakech. First the first thing I was disappointed by and that either you have 1 hour to visit 1 village or you have stops of 5-10m. During the 1h stop in the village it was very nice to visit a traditional place. However after we take you to a shop to buy head scarves for in the desert by making you understand that it is something almost (indispensable) for that it is minimum 12€. Then you eat in a restaurant where you have no choice, you also have to pay the guide who is very insistent on giving it something (when you don’t have to) you also have to pay a service fee that is obviously not indicated before but at the end of the meal. At the end you already have at least 20€. Then the evening location was nice but 3 groups within the bus we were forming is put in different hotel (obviously no one told us about it or explain the organization). For the second day you arrive in the desert only at 5:30 pm. You get on the camel watching the sunset (which is behind you) and you arrive at the location that is not very friendly with employees by very friendly either. When you arrive you have to choose now whether you want to go quad biking the next morning or snowboarding or take the camels that are included and free. Snowboard 15€ per person to see the sunrise with 1 board for 6 people so you can only make 1 time for a video. For the quad 50 € an hour for 1 person .. then we tell you that breakfast is at 5.30 am and you leave at 6 am (very maybe time in the Sahara finally...) then for lunch on the third day we ate in the “only restaurant there was” pay minimum 12 € for the meal while right next door there was a restaurant offering the same for 4 €. I let you imagine how much we are seen as portfolios. So there are a lot of good reviews because when they give you the qrcode to scan it remains 5mm behind you to check if you do it now and how many stars you will put (to put pressure on people). I am really disappointed because in the end there was no real desire to share the culture of the country but only to take your money and spend more than 1.5 days in the car with the driver on the phone. I honestly advise against it is a shame that it is purely touristic.
