Unforgettable 3-Day Marrakech to Merzouga Adventure

We had a wonderful tour with our driver Hamid. All my compliments and recommendations for him. He was a friendly careful driver.

We would like to have more extra time in the Merzouga Sahara. But the camel trip and the stars and moon were wondrous.

The Last Day of the tour driving back to Marrakech is a little bit longer.

A Trip of a Lifetime

My friend and I went on a 3-day; we were picked up from our riad by Mohammed in his clean 4WD. We can honestly say that this tour was the highlight of our 8-night stay in Morocco; seeing the Todra Gorges and of course staying the night camping in the desert with Berber food and music party being especially unique.

On the first day; we stayed at a very clean hotel in Dades, as well as the first hotel, which is very well equipped and great for relaxing in after a long day.
