Camel. Desert night sky. - Ikram worked hard and amen (driver) good English. It was nice to see a lot in the desert and a good camel long tank. The convention of the car seemed old, but the belief that the Bents bus would be safe in the whole accident. But the ass from the chair slides. The stars can be seen in the desert but the wind is so windy that he almost becomes Dorothy, the wizard of Oz. Not able to campfire. The staff in the local desert camps were kind, and the camel rides for 40 minutes. Except tips and no more. I was looking forward to a camel, but those who can't ride well are very sick, and the carriers are uncomfortable when the camel falls. When you go to the house and shower, the sand comes out of the cotton. There was no Wi-Fi available in the camp dining area. It was windy, but it was good to try and play in the room. There was warm water in the camp shower, but at night, when I was afraid of the legend's home, the image was a desert image, so the ghosts were not matched with the ghosts, there was no ghost fear. I can use the room alone. This is what I did when I was a solo traveler. If you arrive late at pick-up, reduce your seat options. Observe someone who is bleeding because they can sit in the middle or vomit. The road is crowded.

Journey to a different world - We started early, 17 of us on an air conditioned minibus. I hadn’t had any breakfast and the bus windows steamed up due to the cold air outside. I was having doubts until we stopped for coffee in the Atlas Mountains. The views were spectacular and they just got better, like a journey to Mars Faisal our driver was courteous and explained in French and English what was coming next and how long until the next stop. We visited Said Ben Hait where many movies have been made and were shown around by Abdul who was knowledgeable and spoke multiple languages. Apparently he was also an extra in Gladiator 2 amongst others From there we travelled on to Zagora where we swapped the bus for camels which took us to our camp. The young men who looked after us and our camels were friendly and courteous, if a little confusing as they did not all have good English. Not surprising really when you’re on the edge of the Sahara. There was food, entertainment, stars, sunset and sunrise, not necessarily in that order The next day Faisal drove us back with regular stops for photos, toilets, drinks and food. It was a long way and it really felt like an adventure. Bring some cash for tips, water, lunches and souvenirs, and see if your hotel will do you an early breakfast or a pack up. Go with the flow and enjoy

Great! - Great experience, very comfortable. The various stops allowed us to see the country and appreciate their culture and learn even more about their traditions. The camp exceeded our expectations: water, toilet, electricity, comfortable room, everything was present to enjoy this excursion. Our guides were all great, a great atmosphere throughout the stay with an evening around the fire to appreciate the beauty of the desert, punctuated by their Berber music

Travel in the desert - The evening was cool, with camels, sunset and sunrise. The Berbers were very nice little returns. On the other hand it was noted that the entrance was included as well as the guide but they were paid and we were like forcing to eat in a tourist restaurant with very high prices compared to local prices.

A good trip but forced stops not nice - The experience was good, however we felt forced to purchase at the stops the bus driver/tour operator chose. (We chose to do our own thing and found our preferred places to eat when we could.) We also found the bus driver rude, though definitely efficient. Apart from the paid guide we didn't get any information from any other tour guide or driver on the bus. The camel ride was fun (though again no information). Our favourite point was to see sun rise over the dunes. (Though we were rushed to then leave.) We also think we didn't make the planned stop on our return trip. Overall a good way to see part of the desert, but be sure to follow the advice and take water, snacks and warm clothes.

Scammers - Would not recomend this agency. Tour description and the reality of you getting is not the same.We ordered the tour where camel ride was for two ways and ordered extra the excursion with car. We just received one camel ride. Tour agency was ignoring us and did not offer any solution.
