An amazing tour that was an unforgettable experience. Highly Recommended!

Margo_C, Apr 2024

Me and 7 friends had an amazing time on this tour with Mohammed! He was such an amazing tour guide who had a lot of patience and was able to answer all the questions we had. He always made sure that we were taken care of. The desert was absolutely beautiful. Truly a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget! I highly recommend this tour for anyone who’s looking for an affordable tour that gives everything you would like and more. Look forward to maybe doing tour again in the future. Day 1 we got picked up from fez and stoped in the Atlas Mountains and visited with the monkeys. Then we had a great lunch. The car ride from fez to merzouga was long on the map but it was split up with great stops and Mohammed answered all our questions about the different terrain and areas we drove through. (The drive was beautiful.) that night we stayed at a beautiful hotel in Merzouga with beautiful views, friendly people, and great accommodations. Day 2: We enjoyed a delicious breakfast then visited a market. Mohammed was very helpful with bargaining and translating. We enjoyed another great lunch with amazing music then headed to the desert to start the camel ride. Mohammed took care to make sure all of our expectations were met/exceeded. The desert camp had great food and wifi, AC, and was beautiful. We enjoyed drums at night and then woke up for sunrise and a great breakfast. Day 3 we spent driving back to Fez to catch our train. Overall we had an amazing time and were sad to say goodbye to Morocco and our amazing guide: Mohammed!!! We were traveling during Ramadan so we were so appreciative of how awesome they made this tour!

Hamid accompanied us on this wonderful journey. Lots of pretty anecdotes of shared and breathtaking landscapes. I recommend with my eyes closed!

The website turns out...

N_V, Jan 2026

The website is misleading. When I made the reservation it said that we would make stops in Ouartzazat, Todra Gorge, Ait ben Addou... And he didn't. In addition, the photos of the tour show images of those places, which you later do not see. The experience in the desert was very good. On the way from Fez to the desert we also did not stop in Ifranne because of the bad weather.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly appreciate your comment and are glad to hear that you enjoyed the desert experience. Regarding the itinerary, we would like to clarify that on the last day to Marrakech, the journey is a long transfer of around 11 hours of driving. Due to this distance, it is not possible to include visits along the way. We are now making this point clearer in the itinerary description to avoid any confusion for future travelers. Thank you again for your understanding and for sharing your experience. We value your feedback as it helps us improve our communication and services.

Amazing experience
