Great trip great staff

We were really happy with the choice made. All arranged very well. The most important thing to report the kindness and sympathy of all guides. Our driver was Houssein Idrissi, very kind, always driving cautiously and asked us a thousand times if everything was okay or if we needed anything. Great care and attention for the group. Very nice trip. Definitely long and tiring return for the journey but worth it. Ait Ben Haddou gorgeous, not to be missed. After making the outward camel ride in the desert we preferred to make the return by jeep and then a quad bike ride so as to have more experiences. I recommend it. Very nice also the guy who led us to the camp for the desert night. He entertained us for a long time with riddles and jokes. I like to report lunch in a small family restaurant, Cafè Restaurant Sud-Est where we definitely tasted a more homely cuisine. There were other stops in different places and pleasant encounters. Experience with Ando Travel definitely positive and recommended.

No desert varinf

Nice driver and plenty of stops, but the luxury camp in the desert was a setback. As the crow flies, we slept 200 meters from the road behind the first hill. We heard the cars driving. Too bad.
