Incredible experience - An unforgettable experience in the Merzouga desert with Youssef at the wheel and Ibrahim as a guide. Their kindness and personalized attention made us feel like family from the first moment. Discovering the desert through his knowledge and company was truly incredible. I highly recommend this unique experience with two great people. Chokran❤️

Great Adventure! - This desert adventure was amazing! The excursion took us to many tourist destinations which were fantastic. The tour guides were great, especially Hussain’s Todra guided tour going through the valley and he even named us the ‘happy group’. The staff were excellent and friendly (we had Hussain and Mustafa), making it a very pleasant and relaxing experience. Overall, I would highly recommend for anyone to go on this tour!

You could do Some sandboarding ! Really big fun for the kids ! The food was good ! Even the showers were Nice although we were in a tentcamp. At the evening there was Some live music and people starter dancing . The next day we went back by camel to our van to go back to marrakesh. This all was in good hands by our guide .

Highly recommend! - Very well organised tour, with lots of stops so we didn't get tired of driving for too long. Very well thought in terms of getting to toilet breaks, atms, snacks etc. Camping in the desert was amazing - I recommend the luxury camp. Our guide Youssef was very fun and knowledgeable and made sure we had absolutely everything we needed! An experience of a lifetime.

In the top - Great experience in the Merzouga desert with our guide Mohamed. We met people from all over the world. Super comfortable minibus and careful driver. I give 4 stars because the accommodation and food were not exceptional but the desert will make you forget everything! Thank you for these memories.
