5.00Private tour. Driver stopped wherever we liked on the way and skipped what we were not interested in (argon oil collective, rugs) if asked. Glamping was great. Arrived back at 7pm next day. Itinerary of kasbahs and Atlas studio worked for us. Driver arranged lunches and places were great.
Wonderful experience in Zagora

Excellent Experience with Very Professional Driver

5.00An exciting tour with a private Mercedes van with an excellent driver, Azdin. He was professional, courteous and prompt. He was very safe when driving and passing and he also politely managed the timing at our stops to insure we did not miss critical activities like sunset in the dessert. We added additional brief stops for coffee and pictures along the route to enjoy our custom adventure. The stop at Ait Ben Haddou was amazing. We had a good guide whose family had lived there for years and gave the backstory on the sights. The "glamping" in the luxury tent was awesome. The tent had a frame with cloth walls and plastic lining, 2 twin beds pushed together into a king size bed for my wife and I, a sofa and table, a dressing table with mirror and a full bathroom with running water. It was larger than the bedroom in the AirBnB we stayed in. We rode a camel to the camp at sunrise, setup in the tent, had tea and sang and danced around a fire before dinner, then played drums and looked at the amazingly clear sky at night. Morning had breakfast followed by sunrise atop a sandy ridge before a camel ride back to the car. An awesome dessert experience. The next day we returned home with a stop at Taouririte Kasbah was interesting, but much of the area was under renovation from the 2023 earthquake. It ended with our tour guide pushing a retail shop,. The Atlas studio tour was a lot of fun. The tour guide explained the sets and the movies filmed there and even made a one take video on an Egyptian set with a guests cell phone. We then returned safely to our lodging in Marrakesh. I would definitely recommend this option for a private and comfortable exploration of the unique sites of Quarzazate and Zagora.
A memorable trip

5.00This tour was excellent. Mouaad from Comfort Tours was so helpful and king, making sure that we were OK with everything and giving advice following the earthquake. Yassine our driver was excellent. Rather than have lunch at the tourist restaurant he took us to a lovely place in the town. He really was great company and a very careful driver. The camp at Zagora was first class. The tents had all the facilities we needed, the beds were very comfy and the food was fantastic. Riding the camels was a great experience but my favourite was seeing the incredible stars. It is a long drive on windy roads but worth it
Awesome desert experience

5.00We had an excellent trip to the Sahara Desert. Mouàad spoke exceptional English and was an outstanding driver—including a number of interesting stops and knowledgeable guides along the way. The desert camp was beautiful and incredibly comfortable (great beds and private full bathrooms!).

5.00My fiancée and I just returned from an amazing 2 day trip to the desert. From the moment we met Mouad (Mo), we knew we’d made the right choice. His professionalism cannot be undersold. The Mercedes luxury van was immaculate as was Mo and his constant care to check if we had everything we need and if he could be of assistance was faultless. We headed out to the desert, past the Khasba (amazing in itself ) to ride the camels to our glamping overnight stop. This was amazing and our guide was sensational. Sitting under the stars listening to the Berber music was a real experience. The next day, Mo collected us bright and early and we headed back to town via the most incredible road overlooking the oasis and the old villages. Mo knows where to go, what to see and where to stop ( food and breaks etc ). The whole experience was just perfect, thank you Mo! ( and for listening to our music 😊)
Great Amazigh (proper name of Berber people) Culture Tour!

5.00We had a great tour with Moe. He spoke excellent English (along with several other languages) and is very knowledgeable about Moroccan culture and history. Now also provided us with some a good recommendations for a restaurant in Marrakech. The camel ride and overnight stay in the desert were very cool experiences. Our camel guide, Mohamed was very good too. Being a private tour, we had the flexibility of stopping when and where we wanted to. We travelled comfortably in a luxurious Mercedes van, and did not miss any of the interesting sites enroute. Overall, I would strongly recommend this tour group and give it a top rating.
Memorable family trip

5.00This private desert tour was an unforgettable family tour organized by this company and arranged by an amazing and friendly driver Yassine, who was the gel throughout the entire experience. Yassine was an educated driver and a family man, he was capable of handling our family which consists of 7 and drove us into the Berber world which we loved so much. It's been an extraordinary family adventure, we enjoyed every single moment, the night at the camp was amazing, the food and the camel ride everything was better than expected. Go for this tour, it is of high quality.
