Excellent experience in Morocco - It's not easy not to leave a review for this 3 day Marrakech to Fes desert tour. This was not my first time to visit Sahara but this must be the best visit and I do believe there will have another time that I will visit Morocco Merzouga again. Our guide Mohamed Oubih was amazingly fabulous!! His competent knowledge and attention to very much tiny details on Morocco history, attractions, which surprised us a lot! He answered any questions we asked, caring on our needs and gave us a very pleased experience on traveling Morocco! I have never imagined I can easily to make a decision that I may come back to this beautiful country in the near future again. We love the culture, colourful cities and to me, the most amazing is Atlas Mountains! Mohamed delivered us a very astonishing trip to the gorge, the mountain, which created us a great travel experience. The camel trekking in Merzouga, the UNESCO World Heritage Site Karbah of Art Ben Haddon, those are the treasure of this Morocco. Not to mention the great faciliated desert camp, very very luxurious decoration, facilities, and the nomad music are all very unforgettable. Mohamed has taken care of everything together with driving an SUV to take us everywhere, driving for more than 4 hours and he still could help us on anything we need help. That was extremely impressive! Mohamed showed us this country is a real GEM! Thanks a lot Mohamed Oubih! You gave us the BEST trip we have ever done before! Morocco, see you soon!

Perfectly plan with perfect people - Our driver is kamal . He was not only a good driver, but also very kind. He picked us up on time and kept the schedule perfectly. Also, since we did not know the culture of their country, he taught us about it and the unspoken rules unique to that country, preventing any danger from happening. Without him, our trip would not have been as satisfying. He made our trip a success. He fulfilled everything we wanted to do, so we would like to have him guide us again.
