Testimonials:
We chose the three-day package with departure from Fes and arrival in Marrakech.
The journey was comfortable despite the long hours of travel: our driver Ali was very kind and professional
not intrusive and always available
We visited different places, all different and fascinating, from the valleys to the gorges and finally to the desert, and we stopped with the right frequency in order not to get too tired.
The camel tour was fantastic, the staff of the hotel super nice and very welcoming: in the evening we chatted and attended traditional rituals with drums and songs very characteristic Berbers
We didn't particularly appreciate some of the touristy stops included in the package, where the locals try to sell their goods and sometimes it can be a bit heavy.
We highly recommend this tour for those who have a few days available and want to have a complete view of Moroccan landscapes outside of the most famous cities.

We booked this tour trusting the reviews, it was a really good idea. Compared to other companies it had a lower quote. However the quality of the trip was excellent. Ayoub, our guide, spoke good English and Spanish and will quickly learn Italian as well, always punctual and helpful he took us on a tour of thousands of kilometers across the desert in his brand new and very comfortable van. In the desert we had a tent with a private bathroom complete with shower and it was an unforgettable experience! The second night we stayed in a nice hotel along the road! 3 unforgettable days that allowed us to visit the main destinations in Morocco! Highly recommended!
