Amazing 3 days desert tour Fes to Marrakech

★★★★★ 5/5

We had an amazing 3-day desert tour from Marrakech t Marrakech. It was one of our best travel experiences. My family (my parents, younger brother, and I) felt incredibly comfortable camping and trekking in the desert. Our guide, Hassan, was exceptional. He was the best guide we had throughout our time in Morocco. We missed him when we had to part ways. Hassan is attentive and willing to adjust the route to cater to your preferences. He quickly realized our love for photography and showed us the best spots. I’ve already recommended him to some friends. When you go on this trip.

Marrakech to Fes Desert Tour

★★★★★ 5/5

We went on an exceptional desert tour from Marrakech to Fes! Our knowledgeable guide, Ahmed, provided informative insights and ensured a safe driving experience. Opting for the luxury camp is highly recommended as it allows you to venture deeper into the desert, offering a more exclusive experience with flush toilets, showers, and a smaller group of only 18 people. In contrast, the “normal” camp accommodated over 50 people sharing basic bathroom facilities. The tour provided a wonderful opportunity to learn about the fascinating Berber people, leaving me thoroughly satisfied with the overall experience.
