Wonderful desert experience - Incredible experience. Enjoying the sunset and sunrise in the desert is worth the whole trip! We left Marrakech very early in the morning by bus and began the journey towards the mountains. We made a couple of stops along the way to admire the very suggestive valley below, and then continued towards the splendid Casbah Hajja Ait Ben Haddou where we took a guided tour of about 1 hour (optional, but highly recommended!) crossing all the alleys of the ancient fortress. After lunch we left to reach the place from which the camel excursion started. Once we arrived at the bivouac (Carovane du Sud is the name of ours) we were accompanied to the dunes to admire the sunset, a unique spectacle! In the evening we had an excellent typical dinner and listened to some Berber songs around the bonfire. Another absurd experience, admiring a sky with lots of stars. In the morning we wake up at 6 to see the sun rise on another dune. This is my favorite moment of the experience, not to be missed. The experience was beyond expectations, in the desert you can breathe incredible peace, the bivouac staff was extremely courteous and helpful, they accompanied us to the dunes to have the best spot both at sunset and at sunrise and they made us endless photos! The tents are real rooms, with huge beds, spacious and very comfortable with private bathroom and shower. All this thanks to Jawad who made our wish of experiencing an unforgettable night in the desert come true!

Family camel ride and camp in Sahara - Meeting new people in our comfortable bus journey. Stops along the way for scenic photos, rr and shopping. Unforgettable camel ride. The dinner was very good and the tents were good. Camping in the desert and hanging out around the campfire. Very accommodating and even offered an additional tent for my family. Bathroom available. My family had a great experience.

Short trip in the Zagora - It was an interesting experience. In fact, the distance is very long so you are the most of the time in a small bus in Zahora. You have a real experience of the desert. It is actually was not water to have a sour or to even wash face, but the guy that was, very nice and the food was good. The driver was excellent was always happy and try to make us smiling
