What To Expect

1

Ait Ben Haddou

DAY 1 : MARRAKECH – ATLAS MOUNTAINS- KASBAH AIT BEN HADDOU- BOUMALNE DADES VALLEY. The first day is when our tour takes us from the hotel in Marrakech to Telouat and then the "Kasbah at Ait Ben Haddou". This is a World "Heritage" Site and consists of many stalls within a walled marketplace. There is a truly ancient feel about the Kasbah and private parties can easily be guided through these mazes of stalls and souks. We will visit the city of "Ouarzazate". This magical city is known as the Gateway to the Desert. It is also the location for many major film productions. The Mummy and Lawrence of Arabia were filmed while on location in the region; seeing a film crew at any time is not uncommon. Following a hearty lunch, which can be taken at any of the wonderful cafes in the city, the tour will move into the Dades Valley. Here, your party will go down into the "Boulmaine Dades" and accommodate ourselves at the very desert’s border country.

7 hours • Admission Not Applicable

Merzouga Desert

DAY 2: BOUMALNE DADES VALLEY –TINGHIR- TODRA GORGE – MERZOUGA After breakfast on the second day of the tour, you can enjoy more of the Dades Valley and we will head for the Todra Gorge. This area is a large canyon with well-maintained asphalt roads, rock climbers, occasional flooding from the Dades River, and several tourists enjoying a scenery like no other. All in all, the journey out of the Dades Valley and on to Merzouga will take around four hours. In the evening, and just before the sun goes down, the private party will trek on camels to a desert camp. Camel riding across the dunes and witnessing the sunset is something very few people get to do – unless they visit Morocco on a desert tour. Overnight Stay in a Berber Camp

    We went from Fez to the desert and back the next day, many hours of driving, but thanks to Hakim it became very enjoyable. Great driver and better person, very friendly, respectful and always mindful of our needs, sometimes we didn't even need to tell you, great! Thank you very much Hakim!

    The experience was amazing! The tour was as we expected, the tent was even better! The guides were very gentle and they answered all our questions during the journey. Recommended!

    Positives: An altogether brilliant experience, with memories I will keep forever! My driver Said was very good company, and kept the trip well organised. The people I was grouped with for the tour were wonderful, and made the trip so much more special. The stops (mostly) matched the itinerary and were even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The desert stay was incredibly comfortable and enjoyable - the food was very nice, the tent myself and my partner stayed in exceeded our expectations (private bathroom, shower got very hot very quickly, plug socket in wall, comfy bed, air conditioning), the music after dinner was great fun and had everyone up and dancing. We were offered two opportunities to ride camels, as well as sand boarding when we asked. The hotel in Ouarzazate was also very nice - a great evening spent on the terrace with the five wonderful people I had the pleasure of meeting through this tour. Complications: Firstly, something I’m sure you’ve read in other reviews, but every single place we stopped for lunch had a set menu of 120 dirhams (I assume there is some deal between the tour companies and these restaurants) - being a cheapskate, I always searched for nearby alternatives, but the locations were very remote and this was not always possible (especially on an hour time limit). The stop lengths varied a lot, sometimes being quite a lot longer or shorter than they would ideally be, and I think the time could have been better assigned to stay longer in the more beautiful locations and shorter in the ones where the only thing to do is spend money (for example, the shop selling turbans, which you are encouraged to buy for the desert however I was absolutely fine without one). Would very much recommend!

  • My desert, my memory

    The most peculiar experience in the Sahara desert was the first experience of the desert itself, the isotope of the colours of the sky and the colours of the sand that are still felt in the head, and seeing the camel ride and the cute appearances of the camel in the shelter in the middle of the desert, I was happy to be able to eat traditional food, talk to people and have an unforgettable experience. In the evening, I went into the camp to do outdoor therapy, but the experience of outdoor beds was a bit difficult. Still, eating in camp (locally) was delicious. Omar, Said (camel guide), Thank you so much for helping me to have a good experience.

    My husband wanted to come to the Sahara for a honeymoon trip, but I was worried about many things. But I met the best guide, Side, and left unforgettable memories and photos and was especially impressed by the hotel that was so romantic.

    Anyone can go to the Sahara Desert, but if you want to have a special and happy time in the Sahara, look for a side. He was the genie of the lamp who made us the best honeymoon.

    I had an amazing experience! The guide was extremely helpful, kind, and funny. He also took great picture of us to remember. Going to the Sahara desert and watching the mesmerizing sunset was definitely the best activity among the trip. Not only that, but also the spending the night in the middle of the desert with countless stars and close friends was geniunely a lovely moment I will never forget. My tip for future tourists is that it could be quite cold during winter to sleep in the desert. Despite that everything was perfect. I surely recommend the Morocco desert trip to everybody.
