Tour Reviews
Amazing small group 4-day trip from Fes to Marrakech
Our small group had a great experience on a 4-day, 3-night trip from Fes to Marrakech. Omar was an amazing guide who spoke great English and was great at telling us about the areas we visited. He was very accommodating to any pace or sights that his guests wanted to see. The Desert adventure was so fun, and I enjoyed it all. I also loved the camp because it has AC and hot showers.
tour from Fes to Sahara desert dunes
We started our tour from Fes to Sahara desert dunes, spending the first night in a lovely Riad in Merzouga. The next day, the excursion around the Sahara improved when we joined Said and Ibrahim for the excursion. Said was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making every stop along the journey so much more enjoyable.
Great 5-day tour from Marrakech
We would like to thank Idriss, our English-speaking driver, for the great service he provided us during our 5-day tour from Marrakech to Sahara. It was nice a experience for our small group of 6 people. The whole trip was so fun and exciting in each place we visit.
