Great tour with Mohammed! - Mohammed was an excellent guide through Morocco. At each point did my wife and I felt safe and in capable hands. Mo explained the different cultural sites well, and was always willing to answer our questions with a smile. He made our overall experience of the trip excellent.

3 days Marrakech to Merzouga desert trip - We had an amazing 3 days Marrakech to Merzouga desert trip with expert guide. The grand finale of going to the Sahara desert on a camel to see the sunset was epic and the next morning to see the sunrise was a completely surreal experience. Also, all the places we stopped before reaching the desert were very interesting and there was a local guide who showed us everything :) Our driver and guide (Hamid) were super friendly, always greeting us with a big smile, people very warm and pleasant!

Best 3 days group tour from Marrakech to Merzouga desert - We booked our 3-day trip from Marrakech with Mouhou Tours. we were lucky to have Hamid as our driver for the 3-day desert tour to Merzouga. Hamid was very experienced and he was a friend not just a guide we always use his advice and information even after we finish the trip with him. The 3-day desert trip was amazing we got to meet other people on the group tour and the night in the desert camp was the highlight of our trip. In the Merzouga desert we went to the camp with another couple because we booked the authentic desert camp which was separated from the other camps and there we got to enjoy a starry sky as never before. We Highly recommend Mouhou tours, Hamid and the Authentic desert camp option,

Amazing Tour with Izir (5 day to Merzouga) - I did a five day tour from Marrakech to Merzouga. My guides name was Izir and he provided a great experience. Accommodations I stayed at were fantastic and the meals provided by the hotels were A+. Each day there are several great things to see on the road that will leave your jaw dropped. The luxury camping in the Sahara desert is something to not miss. It was the pinnacle moment of the trip for me. I highly recommend doing a guided tour with our any worry or stress.

Top-Notch Tour with Mouhou - We recently embarked on a trip with Mouhou Tours, and it was a truly rewarding experience. Their team crafted a tailored itinerary for us, highlighting some of the best spots including the majestic Sahara Desert and the culturally rich city of Fes. Each destination was well-thought-out and the guided history lessons by the partnered tour guides added a nice touch. Our driver, Ahmed, deserves a special mention. He was professional, personable, and ensured our comfort throughout the journey. With his knowledge of the routes and a friendly demeanor, the drives felt short and enjoyable. All in all, Mouhou Tours provided an efficient and pleasant travel experience. Highly recommended for anyone exploring the region. Thanks to the team, and a big thumbs up to Ahmed!

First class trip from Hamed, and Mouhou Tours Morocco - Well it would be hard to beat the night in the dessert, at the "Hotel of a thousand stars" You'll even have great wifi to send the photos. I was worried about camel ride but you just relax and go with the flow. It was magical! Our guide Hamed, was a terrific young man. We became fast friends. At the end of the trip, no doubt exhausted after a long drive, he parked and helped us get through a very busy square and back to our Riad. The trip to the Dades Valley and a very nice hotel, and the trip the second day to the Gorge and all the rest was just a great way to get a sense of Morocco.

Fantastic trip!!! - This is an incredible tour with wonderful people who drive all day, stopping off at various sights of importance as well as telling you about Berber culture on the way. Our guide Hamid was really kind and gracious, even buying us a giant box of dates after I mentioned how good they were! :). He took care of us for the trip and made sure we were picked up afterwards. The experience in the camp was also outstanding. Great people, delicious food, a gorgeous tent, fun music, and just an amazing landscape. The camel ride was exciting too. All in all, an experience not to miss!!! My highest recommendation to Aziz and everyone who made this trip work so wonderfully well!!

Outstanding organisation & small group tour! - Highly recommend Mouhou tours! They are a family company, we were lucky to have Mustafa as our driver and guide, super chill, great music, excellent knowledge and outstanding driving! Couldn’t recommend highly enough - they have small groups (we were lucky to be just 4) which is a huge contrast to the large groups we passed. Excellent service, and the luxury desert camp was perfect!
