Traveler reviews
Amazing experience
A great experience. Fun in the desert. Rode camels, watched the sun set, camped over night and saw the sunrise. Once in a lifetime experience has been had
Very Fun and Great Guides
Exceptional service from start to finish. Ali was really funny and drove safely through long desert roads, always patient and attentive. Hanene was an amazing guide, knowledgeable, friendly, and made every stop meaningful. Truly elevated the whole Marrakech–Fès–Sahara experience.
Trip of a Lifetime Morocco Experience
This was an incredible trip. Hanan was a wonderful guide. Our favourite was definitely the camel ride in the Sahara. I highly recommend the Luxury Accommodations!
Not worth the value
1. The tour company (Marrakech Life) is not responsive, they didn't send me the diver and pick up info at the night before the trip, I have to call Viator and the tour company multiple times in the late night (close to 11 pm local time) before my trip, finally got someone answer my phone, they had wrong pick hotel name. I am not recommended to use the tour company (Marrakech Life) 2. We paid for upgraded hotel room in Tinghir, however, the hotel room we had was dirty with AC dripping water for the whole night, clogged sink, smelly closet and mosquitos. 3. We paid for luxurious private camp in Sahara, however, the camp we had was with broken shower head, door lock is not working, flies and mosquitos. The driver gave us another camp, unfortunately, the toilet seat was broken and with someone's urine inside. The camp's wifi is not working, and I wasn't informed in advance. 4. All included breakfasts and dinners are not worth the value 5. Some of the lunch places we went during the trip are with a lot flies. 6. After 2 days on the bus, we were at Merzouga for less than 12 hours (including sleep time), not recommended to visit Sahara in the summer. 7. Bus drivers are nice and with good driving skills.
A glimpse into the Moroccan hinterland.
A very intense 3-day tour to visit the Moroccan hinterland, moving from Marrakesh to Fes. Visit to Ait Ben Haddou, Todra Gorge, and activities in the Merzouga desert. The other stops mentioned in the tour were only brief, time is short, and the kilometers are many. The accommodations and restaurants offered were excellent. The driver-guide Abdu was friendly and helpful with the entire group (15 people).
