Safari to Merzouga

Tess_L, Apr 2024

We had a wonderful trip to the Sahara desert with lots of beautiful lookout stops along the way. Our driver Laarbi was really helpful and informative. He was a great driver and we really enjoyed the entire experience. I would recommend to bring some extra small change for tips for the guides along the way as it is expected for some. Also be mindful that you may not receive much communication prior to leaving on the experience so don’t stress or expect to receive a detailed itinerary. Overall it was great fun and an amazing experience.

Good time at the desert

We had a really nice time in the desert, it was very impressive! We have seen and experienced a great deal in the Sahara and in the Atlas Mountains. This tour will be remembered me for a long time! The guides and our driver Eddih Hicham were very friendly and courteous with jokes.
