The overall experience was great! A lovely few days exploring different sights within Morocco with an amazing night spent in the desert. The highlight was definitely the camel ride across the Sahara!I would highly recommend this experience

The overall experience...

Saira_H, Jun 2025

Great excursion, avoid the driver Mohammed

Abdul_A, May 2023

. Rude and arrogant driver . Driver left us and drove off . No breakfast served on Day 3 The excursion is great but the driver Mohammed has no customer service skills. Avoid him at all costs. Very miserable and impatient man.

Expérience unique mais...

Sandra_M, Jul 2024

L'organisation des 3 jours était professionnelle et parfaite. Le chauffeur, Ibrahim, est prudent, sympathique, souriant et très professionnel ! Je recommande ! Le bémol que je donnerai est sur le camp de Merzouga. Superbe, expérience unique et magnifique, mais, parce qu'il y a un "mais", sur place, aucune communication sur les activités, les horaires de repas, les horaires de coucher et lever de soleil... A part les options payantes qui sont proposées immédiatement, rien d'autre n'est indiqué. C'est dommage ! Quand on pose la question, on est face à des personnes souriantes qui ne comprennent pas ce que nous disons et ne parlent aucune langue étrangère. Difficile donc.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour détaillé et constructif. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l'organisation et le professionnalisme de notre chauffeur Ibrahim. Nous prenons en compte vos remarques concernant le camp de Merzouga et travaillerons à améliorer la communication sur place afin de rendre l'expérience encore plus agréable. Votre satisfaction est notre priorité, et vos suggestions nous aident à nous améliorer continuellement. Au plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau Trakech team

Veel autokilometers,...

Hans_B, Jun 2023

Veel autokilometers, slechte airco. Hoofddoel was kloof. Zijn er slechts 30 minuten geweest. Veel 'toeristische' verplichtingen met als doel de aanschaf van kleden en hoofddoeken.

最好别定没有空调的帐篷房以及不要去骑骆驼看日出要命

Jialu_Z, Feb 2023

价格非常便宜，3天只需要不到100美金，还包早晚餐和住宿，不过需要和很多人一起拼车。第二天住在沙漠的帐篷里实在是太冷了，没有空调，晚上真的被冻死半夜基本上温度零下吧。最窒息的是第二天早上天不亮就要起来骑骆驼，清晨温度应该不到0度，加上晚上冷得没睡好，我感觉自己已经快要昏厥了。回来发烧了一整天，整整休息了三天才恢复元气，我可能这几年都不再想去沙漠了。司机过于健谈，一路上都在放吵闹的音乐，选择这趟旅行真的要不怕冷身体素质很好。最后一天司机好像因为超速被罚款耽误了时间，所以就不让大家上厕所，膀胱要爆炸了真的。然后第二天安排也有一点问题，好像是营地联系跟旅行社有一些出入。总之联系大家为了生命安全着想，冬天去沙漠一定要多花钱定一个有空调的帐篷房。日落的骆驼很舒服，日出的骆驼可以不骑，因为我清晨在骆驼上唯一想到的事就是凭着一口气活着走出沙漠🏜️
