Memorable experience in the Sahara. Our ride from Fez to the Sahara was enjoyable and interesting because Zaki, our driver cum tourist guide offered so much info about the places we stopped at or passed by. The Sahara desert excursion on the camel was so exciting and lovely as we stopped to laze on the sand dune watching the sunset..and the ride to the tent afterwards, to be greeted by a lavishly decorated tent, complete with aircon and water heater… Star gazing in the darkness of the Sahara after dinner was completely amazing… (Reviewed on 2025-04-20)

The trip is very complete with several stops to take photos, the landscapes change throughout the trip. Everything is very well organized, luckily we had a small group of eight people. Nothing is expensive. Our driver Mehdi was very nice, friendly and spoke Spanish and French in addition to Arabic and English. He was very flexible and told us many anecdotes about the local culture. Mehdi drove very well and safely. I hope you get the same driver. Overall, very good experience! (Reviewed on 2024-04-19)

Unforgettable Moroccan Experience – Highly Recommend. We had an amazing last-minute trip with this agency — we literally confirmed everything at 11 PM the night before, and they still managed to organize the whole thing for the next morning. I’m really grateful for how quickly and efficiently they put it all together! Our first night was in the desert, which was such a unique and unforgettable experience. The tent was super luxurious, the food was delicious and varied, and the whole atmosphere was incredible. (Reviewed on 2025-04-14)
