Great experience - Loved this trip. Bader was very friendly, good fun and made sure everyone was happy and had a good time. Very safe driver too and everything was well organised and on time. Good local guides for the Village tours too. Long drive but plenty of breaks and experiences along the way. The desert trip and camel rides to see the sun set and then rise were a highlight. Evening entertainment at the camp was drumming and dancing in a very relaxed atmosphere (take wine/beers with you!). Difficult to find any faults so would highly recommend this trip

Marrakesh to Sahara and back! - Very interesting experience managed by Badr. From Marrakech to the Sahara and back by comfortable bus. Morocco has a lot to offer and this tour allows you to see a good part of its beauties in 3 days. Very nice ride with dromedaries!

Amazing experience! - Our 3-day Sahara Desert tour from Marrakesh to Merzouga was nothing short of spectacular! From start to finish, this trip was an incredible blend of adventure, culture, and natural beauty. We had the pleasure of traveling through the breathtaking Atlas Mountains, and the drive across the Tizi N Tichka Pass – the highest road in North Africa – was absolutely stunning. The visit to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Aït Benhaddou was like stepping back in time, with its dramatic Kasbahs and ancient walls. We also explored the amazing Todra Gorge and the oasis of Tinghir, both of which were awe-inspiring. But the true magic began when we arrived in the Sahara. Our camel ride through the towering Erg Chebbi dunes was surreal, and the night spent under the stars in a traditional Bedouin camp was one of the highlights of our entire trip. Waking up early to catch the sunrise over the dunes was an unforgettable experience that I'll cherish forever. A huge thank you to our guide and driver, Badr, whose warmth, knowledge, and passion for Morocco made the trip even more special. He was friendly, informative, and truly went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. If you're looking for an authentic, enriching experience in Morocco, this tour is a must! Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to explore the beauty of the Atlas Mountains and the magic of the Sahara.

Good but could be much better - A honest review, they can do better. The places visited were great, our driver Youssef was very kind and the camping in the desert was very nice. But: the english of the driver was very poor, making communication difficult. The stops for lunches were in super touristic places with awful food at quite expensive price. They bring you to restaurants and shops of their friends/contacts, where they continuously try to sell you stuff and take money in any way, giving the impression of a scam. The schedule was quite tight, but think this was necessary considering the long journey. For the camping, it’s very recommended to take the luxury tend if you don’t want to suffer from cold at night. In general it is worth it because for a very good price you get a three day tour with very long distance and no hassle of driving and the experience in the desert is amazing, but the stops are very touristic. We bought it on Getyourguide and they should detail better all the stops in between which were not mentioned in the description.
