The best experience - The tour from casablanca was amazing!! The tour guide and driver were so friendly, and they made sure we had the most amazing time. I was traveling with a group of 5 friends and we all had a blast. We were able to see so much in a small amount of time. The time in the desert was the best part. I highly recommend taking this tour.
