10/10 would highly recommend
An unforgettable experience! Our guide Obama was hilarious and our driver Abdu got us to all of our spots safely! The food along the way was incredible, the views were stunning and the guides at each stop were amazing. Definitely recommend the Luxury tent, as it had air conditioning and a decent shower. A very “go with the flow” and vibe type of trip.
The main guide is very cheerful and nice. is...
The main guide is very cheerful and nice. But the person who guided Ait Ben Haddou was not so much a tip as a coercion request, and the 200DH was demanded by people who forced me to bring monkey food even where I could meet the last monkey. Also, lunch and late-night snack are the same every day for three days. Punchy chicken, couscous, cold rice, hard bread, stewed vegetables, tomatoes and cucumber. And I pay 140DH for lunch separately from the tour. When riding a camel, luxury people and standard people are completely separated, so getting along with other people in the car doesn't do the same thing. No guide will take a picture of you when you ride a camel. I was forced to walk down the highest dune to see the sunset, but it was really hard and took quite a while. Arafo is in his late 30s, but I don't think he could have climbed it if he was any older. Some groups were just left on the desert for 2.5 hours without instructions to go up to the dunes. Of course, it helps on tour because it is a route that cannot be taken by one person, but I think there is room for improvement.
Tour from Marrakech to Fes
Yassine was our guide and driver during the three-day tour from Marrakech to Fes, passing through the desert. He was always kind, helpful, and very professional. His explanations were clear, interesting, and useful for better understanding the places visited and the local culture. We had a great time: a beautiful experience organized with great care.
From Marrakech to Fes with Hakim
Our desert tour from Marrakech to Fes with our driver Hakim was an unforgettable experience. He was always attentive, extremely professional, and took great care of all our wishes with much warmth. We particularly enjoyed the pleasant conversations, his humorous anecdotes, and the relaxed atmosphere throughout the entire trip. We felt safe and well taken care of at all times – absolutely recommendable!
Amazing Experience of Morocco
A lovely experience that is well worth it for the money. I had a great time both quad biking and riding camels on the dunes, and a stand-out moment was the music and dancing around the fire before bed at the desert camp. My guide Hakim was so much fun and encouraged our entire group to get involved. Thanks Hakim!
