Exciting journey from Fes across the desert to Marrakesh - A wonderful tour that gives you many unforgettable impressions of the country and its people. Perfectly prepared by the tour operator, everything went really well, including pick-up and drop-off at the accommodation. The distances are long, but you get to see a lot. Very good accommodation for the night in the desert and the second night. Special thanks to Mohammed, our driver and guide. He gave us lots of information about the places and the country and was super hospitable and nice. Bärbel

An unforgettable journey from the mountains to the Sahara - We had an amazing experience and Mohammed was an amazing guide. The desert experience was especially special and the tent was so comfortable and warm. Going from the snow to the roasting desert is one I will never forget and seeing the gorgeous valleys of tingir was a major plus. Great value for money and a great way to travel from Fes to Marrakech with sightseeing in between!

Amazing trip and driver for desert tour - I HAVE ENDLESS PHOTOS. The 3day tour was amazing and our guide/driver was awesome. Our driver was Hamza, and he took our small group from Fes to Marrakech. Very safe drive and I felt very comfortable with him. Getting to our different locations, stoping at different spots, and food breaks were more enjoyable, because Hamza was very knowledgeable about EVERYTHING. We enjoyed stops for pictures and tea along the way. The desert experience and being able to view the sunset and camel rides to our luxury tents was amazing; you don’t have to do luxury however. Smooth driving and nice toons on the radio made our long drives more enjoyable. Hamza was a great driver and did a wonderful job!

Tour magnifico - We chose to take this tour, and we couldn't have made a better choice. Both in terms of the stops but also the timing, absolutely perfect. The quality of service was excellent, especially thanks to the company of Mohamed, our driver, a really pleasant, professional and kind person who was able to guide us throughout the trip and above all was attentive to every little need. If you are looking for a tour, surely this is the one for you!

Superb but a lot of time on the bus!! - Very nice excursion- saw a part of Morocco that we would have otherwise missed / lots of time on the bus - 33 hours over 3 days!! With a group of unruly young people who made us waste a lot of time - lost or not on time to return to the bus / but excellent experience!!

Fabulous Guides, Fabulous Experience! - Always start with the positive, I say, so let me say that our driver, Hamza, and our desert guides were sensational proving that excellent employees are what make a business shine. We will never forget our desert experience due to the warmth, hospitality and the genuine feeling of the individuals we encountered enroute. Hamza was an excellent skilled driver, funny and engaging. My positive feedback would be that entirely too much time is spent in the vehicle and perhaps management should consider adding another night somewhere enroute to/from the Desert Camp out of Fes. I would also recommend another hotel in Ouarzazate as the one we were housed in looked excellent upon entering but the rooms were substandard and the poorest that we experienced on our journey through Morocco. I did not appreciate the unequal price structuring after polling my fellow travelers especially when I was discouraged from booking online and told that paying in cash was my only option. Having worked and managed businesses within the industry, I am aware how things work so did not appreciate that part of the experience. However, I was able to amicably resolve this issue during the trip and in the presence of my fellow travelers. Thank you for a truly memorable experience and hope to return in the future with others.
