5.00A unique experience that exceeded my expectations. Tours and visits are well organized, always following our needs. The only observation is that the tour of the city of Marrakech was a bit fast and rushed. Great tour with the quad and the dromedary. Beautiful, comfortable, and super clean accommodations. A special thanks to Khalid and Ismail for their friendliness, availability, and patience. A unique and simply fantastic trip. I recommend it to you.
Magical adventure through beautiful Morroco

5.00We travelled with Omar who was probably the best guide I have had in many years of travel. The tour was extremely well organized, and Omar was flexible and attentive to tailor the trip to our wishes. The accommodation and food were excellent, the itinerary was fun and interesting, and we felt very safe. Omar was highly knowledgeable and answered all of our hundreds of questions :) and his English was excellent. Highlights were the Dadis valley, Benhaddou fortress, the camel ride and camping in the Sahara, and seeing the stars at night. Thank you, we will recommend you to all our friends!
Great experience

5.00Excellent organized travel experience. My friends and I had a great time, especially with the support of Khalid upon arrival and with Ismail for the desert tour. The guided tour of Marrakech was somewhat unsatisfactory because it was too rushed. Nevertheless, a very positive rating
The best tour ever! Highlighted so much from big city to humble Nomad villages in the desert

5.00We had such a wonderful experience with Yoseph. He took us to some of his super secret places and gave us time to explore. We felt safe and relaxed. All the accommodations were top rated. My husband keeps raving about the Oz Palace but my favorite was the tent camping in the Sahara. We were sad to be dropped off in GES and will miss him! I highly recommend this company.

5.00Excellent tour. It was an amazing and enlightening experience. We booked the private option for flexibility and Abdel Aziz and Hamid were both responsive and gave us the absolute best trip we could have asked for It was the highlight of our Morocco trip. The accomodation, places we visited, and culture and food experiences were exceptional If we wanted to change anything Abdel Aziz was most accommodating
Relax and enjoy every moment

Floating emotions

5.00What should we talk about? The breathtaking landscapes that surprise you mile after mile, the peace of the desert glowing in the sun, and the vibrant colors of the cloths held down by stones? Should we talk about the countless shapes of clouds in skies of every shade of blue? Or the flowers that survive the dunes, the sun, and the wind? And the way the syncopated rhythm of the drums contrasts with the litanies of almost ancestral songs? Or should we talk about the patience in the green of the gardens? The loving care of a mother cooking flatbread under a Berber tent? The inexorable calm with which a market stall, blown away by the wind, is rebuilt? Or again, should we talk about the people of these places—so wise in their environment and so proud of their culture and their freedom, which they continue to build every day with a refined dignity? This was an incredible, beautiful experience that stirs and blends your senses, emotions, and soul so much that you emerge practically stunned....far beyond any shisha!! So thank you to everyone who made this possible, from the tour organizers to the very keen and kind camp manager Said and the entire wonderful staff. But naturally, thanks to our guide, driver, father figure, and travel companion, Aziz, for his immense patience, his great attention, and his determined desire to make us live a unique experience. I’d say he truly succeeded; this journey still resonates within me, and I think it will take me some time to let it all sink in. Now, my greatest wish is that my daughters will have the same opportunity for an experience like this. Inshallah.
Totally satisfied

5.00Everything went smoothly and well organised. Excellent hotel and camp were booked. In-depth experience around Sahara was of particular interest to us. I highly recommend guests to stay 2 nights in Sahara to experience more about Sahara, not just camel ride and Erg Chebbi.
Beautiful tour

5.00This was the absolute highlight of our trip to Morocco. Each day felt like an adventure, with so many sights to see and some absolutely breath-taking experiences. Every day felt perfectly balanced - full days without being too packed. Every night we stayed in exceptional accomodation. Experiencing the desert was incredible and everything we hoped it to be. And our driver and guide, Khalid, was one of the kindest and most-knowledgable people we met throughout our holiday. He went the extra mile in every possible way to make sure we had the best time on our trip. I cannot recommend doing this tour more highly - and make sure you ask for Khalid! Yalla!
