Highly Recommend!

My daughter and I did the trip. We booked the small group w/ en suite bathroom. It turned out we were the only ones on our tour! Our vehicle was a comfortable Toyota SUV. Our driver and guide was Mohammad. I can't say enough good things about him! He explained about the areas we travel through. Stopped when we wanted to stop. Some of the stops we weren't that interested in, so we stopped briefly or just bypassed them. We always felt safe! The desert camp was what we expected. Food was good, tent was comfortable w/AC. At first I was disappointed we didn't go to the top of the dune for sunset but ridding a camel is not comfortable. On the way back I was SO happy we didn't go to the top. The stops for lunch could be better. They're planned and food was not great. Take snacks or buys at some of your stops. Have change for restrooms. We also carried a small pack of tissue, not all restrooms have TP. I would recommend the tour and if your lucky Mohammad will be your guide!!

Worse trip ever

JuanDiego_S, May 2019

This experience was divided into three parts: 1. Transportation to the desert: terrible service, the van did not have air conditioning and it was over 40 degree celcius. Driver was very rude, and said he was not given enough money to put the aircon on. Only one small window, for a 17 pax van. The hotel where we stayed the first night was horrible and in the middle of nowhere. Nothing interesting to see. 2. The desert: The experience was very nice. 3. Transportation to Fes. Luckily we were not going back to Marrakech, so they changed our transportation to a smaller van to Fes. No aircon either but good ventilation.
