Amazing trip to the Sahara! - An amazing experience, our driver was super nice, he explained us about a lot of things while on the road and stopped in great spots for taking pictures. Riding a camel through the dunes and spending the night in the middle of the desert is a very unique experience. Totally recommended!

An unforgettable experience for a great price! - Travelling to the Sahara is an experience unlike any other, and I'm so happy I chose this tour with this tour group to enjoy it. The price was very fair, and we received everything outlined in the description, most of which did not just meet our expectations, but exceeded them, from the wonderful accommodation in the luxury private tents, to the sights on the ride from Fes to the Sahara. Moreover, our driver Ahmed was not only a great driver, but very friendly and informative, making the trip seem shorter than it was. Be prepared for a long drive from the desert to Marrakech though. It is 10 hours, but we got to Marrakech safe and sound, albeit tired, and mainly because of the great driving from the bus driver, but that long travel distance is more than made up for with a fantastic experience to the Sahara that went off without a hitch. I would definitely recommend this tour!
