Very attentive and professional company - Great jeep tour through the desert. Smooth communication with Hasan on what's app beforehand and after the tour.
Our guide Yousuf was very friendly and attentive. We visited an original berber family, old abandoned village,French quarry, panoramic spots for photos, an old African village and cars museum just outside Merzouga.
We did another tour (desert overnight tour with camels) with the same company (Sahara Deserts) and it exceeded all our expectations. We would really like to recommend this tour provider as every detail in both tours was planned and well organised, and it is not overpriced.

To do ! - The guide was very kind and funny. The tour is really well organized, first traditional music, then a mascara quarry and finally a Berber camp with tea, between each stage the guide even let us drive in the dunes which makes the experience even more fun . The guide knows the best spots to take photos and offers to take some for us.

Great half day tour - I had great time exploring the Medina of Marrakech. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Considering I had limited time it was a good introduction to this exhilarating city.
