Great experience! - I would definitely recommend this guided trip. Do not be scared off by the 10 hour ride, our driver Brahim was incredible in making it feel comfortable and fun. We made multiple stops to stretch our legs, buy snacks, souvenirs, and eat lunch. The vehicle that we travelled in was spacious and had air conditioning for when it was too cold or hot. Additionally, Brahim was always kind to stop for whatever reason we needed to make our trip more comfortable. He also was very helpful in giving us recommendations for shopping, eating etc in Marrakech. For the tour you are picked up and dropped off where your hostel is at which makes the whole experience even more convenient. Once having arrived in the desert we were able to ride the camels to the sand dunes and then to the camp. The accommodations were great and bathrooms were inside the tent which was great. I would recommend taking a good jacket for the cold weather. This is perfect for people who want to go to the desert on limited time, it is still worth it even with just being one night Overall I really enjoyed the trip and would not hesitate to recommend it to friends.

Excellent landscapes with good guides. - Said and Brahim great guides. The scenery was spectacular. Something you only see once in a lifetime. The only bad thing was the temperature changes so you have to be prepared for everything.

unique experience, but special forces - Overall, it's pretty satisfying. The scenery is really drifting, Yuan Quan but back to the fare. The tour guide was brahim and said, very helpful. It's nice to have people from different places talking and taking pictures of each other along the way. But it's hard to get up especially early every day, especially for those who love to sleep and slack off.

Unforgettable experience. - We left Marrakech at 5:30 and around 5pm we arrived in Merzouga. About 10 hours by car which, however, once you arrive, are really worth it. Our driver Ibrahim is a really nice and helpful person, during the journey he showed us areas and told stories. Too bad you don’t speak Italian 🥲 Just arrived we walked 50 minutes with camels on the beautiful desert dunes and Waited for the sunset. The only flaw , we did not sandboard the dunes as indicated by the package we purchased. In the evening dinner in the village and show by the fire with music and traditional dances. Around 11pm small walk in the desert to admire the magical starry sky. Accommodation in Berber tent with private bathroom complete with everything. In fact, there was no hairdryer 🤣. For the rest, I recommend everyone to have this magical experience, you will not regret it.
