  • Medhi is the best guide!! 😁

    Our desert trip in Morocco was absolutely fantastic. The hospitality was top-notch, and our tour guide, Mehdi, was amazing—so kind and helpful, especially when one of the children wasn't feeling well. He truly went above and beyond to make our trip special. He also gave us a surprise birthday cake for one of our group. The views from the desert were breathtaking, and the entire experience was unforgettable. Highly recommended!

  • Must do in Marocco

    Beautiful experience, driver Dakar was very kind and focus on our needs.It was my bday and he bought a cake for me with written Happy bday Fabio! I must unfortunately a very bad experience during the night in the desert camp: we choosed standard solution but I have to say that it was really a thing not accettable. My partner was not well for her period and the showers were really disgusting, and the general conditions of the bathroom was in a disgraceful condition : little and very hot water came out of the taps and they were without final part. Also most of the toilets did not flush and you can imagine the situation in hot desert without flash.
