Dunes. Camels. Like nothing you've ever seen. - The tour was a fantastic experience. Trips don't always leave promptly and it's always good to be able to go with the flow while travelling... both of these certainly apply here. Still, I absolutely recommend Zagora Desert Travel for anyone looking for tours in Morocco. They're a reliable and communicative group.

Amazing experience at the middle of the desert - Amazing stay with Ali and Ibrahim. Nice tents with comfortable beds. They played music next to a fire and we ate an amazing Tajin. Thanks!

Unique desert experience - Unique experience to spend the night in the desert. Seen both sunrise and sunset from the top of a dune, very special. The camel ride was also a wonderful experience. The atmosphere in the camp was great and we had a delicious meal. Wouldn't have wanted to miss this. The drive there is bumpy, but definitely worth it.
Clothing tips, because that's what we were looking for first. You first arrive at the camp before you go out with the camels, so you don't have to dress up in advance. Taking a shawl with you is useful for the sand, just like sunglasses. The temperature is not too bad in the evening, very pleasant (May) and there are sockets in the tents.
Recommended!

Real desert experience - This desert tour was an absolute gem. The sunset was breathtaking, casting a mesmerizing palette across the sky. The camel ride at dawn was serene, offering tranquil views of the awakening desert. The food was delicious, adding a flavorful touch to the experience. Don't miss out on this unforgettable adventure.

Bumpy rides and peaceful adventures in picturesque dunes - Our trip exceed our expectations! Our first stop was at a Kasbah where we learned about traditional local pottery which was extremely impressive. After an hour, we reached the desert where our adventure began with a bumpy but very fun ride across beautiful dunes and rocks. We were welcomed by very friendly locals who showed us around a well equipped and clean camp. There was even a bathroom and a shower. After a quick snack, we enjoyed a camel ride into the sunset and were able to climb the dunes. The sunset in the desert was quite impressive! We were treated by a very delicious Tajine dinner and spent the rest of the evening talking to the locals, leaning a lot about culture and traditions. The night was very peaceful and relaxing. Personally, we would recommend to leave the light on as we met some scorpion and spider before going to bed. No less impressive was the high number of snake tracks on the dunes in the mornings (our guide assured us that none of the animals were dangerous as long as being left alone). Our driver as well as our guide, Rashid, were extremely friendly and knowledgeable and we would highly recommend both to everyone :) thank you for this fun experience!

Almost perfect - Great experience overall. The pickup was done at their venue in which we were able to safely leave our car. The drive to the desert was interesting. We reached the camp after 2:30-3:00, right before sunset and we went by dromedarie to the dunes. Unbelievable sights and experience. Make sure you catch the sunset at the highest dune. Dinner was fine as well as sleeping accommodations. The only thing holding back the review is that our guide (driver from Zagora to the camp) barely spoke any English, French or Spanish, depriving us of having a guide that shared interesting knowledge with us during our ride to and from the desert.
