Reviews about our 6 Days Tour from Tangier
Best 6 days tour from Tangier to Sahara
We recently got back from a fantastic 6 days tour of Morocco with Wonderful Desert... We had planned the route ourselves and they accommodated all our wishes, and also provided suggestions where we needed help with arranging the accommodation and places of interest - very helpful.
We were picked up in Tangier by our tour driver and guide, who then drove us to the most incredible places this beautiful country has to offer. We will never forget the ride from Tangier via Tetouan, the artistic city on Rif Mountains, to the incredibly beautiful blue city of Chefchaouen through The Reef Mountains.
How Ali was able to navigate the mountains winding roads with an absolute calmness is beyond one's grasp... We toured Volubilis, a 2000-year-old Roman city. Meknes located in the heart of Morocco and bordering the gorgeous cedar an awe-inspiring city built in the Spanish-Moorish style also called the "City of a Hundred Minarets.
We were blown away by the medina in Fes where we stayed in a beautiful riad and ate the most incredible food. Also, the night in the desert camp was magical, Stars, Camels, Tagine music. Thanks for everything.
Lovely 6 days trip in Morocco Tangier - Chefchaouen - Fes - Merzouga - OUARZAZATE - MARRAKECH
We had a lovely 6 days trip in Morocco (our first time), starting in Tangier, further on to Chefchaouen for the first night (we would have loved to stay a bit longer there) onwards through beautiful landscapes with olive trees to Volubilis and Meknes (not that interesting) down to Fes, where we stayed to nights (I would suggest 1 night is enough in Fes).
From Fes, we went through AZROU - MIDELT - ZIZ VALLEY down to the MERZOUGA DESERT, where we had a CAMEL TREK AND OVERNIGHT IN THE DESERT CAMP (Luxury Camp Erg Chebbi) which was an unbelievable experience.
Dinner on the sand dunes with millions of stars in the background. Very nice and friendly staff in the camp, highly recommended. After visiting some Berber villages in the desert we continued to OUARZAZATE and AIT BEN HADDOU KASBAH with our final destination MARRAKECH.
All in all, we had an amazing experience, a friendly driver (Mohammed) and we saw quite a lot in this short period of time (which also meant that I got quite exhausting at times 🙂 Of course, there are some parts which in our opinion aren't necessary (like "watching" the Gnawa people) but all in all, the experience has been great!
We can highly recommend Morocco Tours agency, thanks again for everything!
6-day tour from Tangier to Marrakech
Our tour with Moha exceeded all our expectations. As 3 women (grandmother, mother, and 11-year-old granddaughter) traveling to Morocco for the first time, we were a little anxious about what to expect. We had the most incredible experiences including a camel ride and overnight stay in the Sahara.
We felt absolutely safe the entire trip and Said customized our trip to suit our needs (we're not big shoppers and were more interested in learning about the culture and experiencing local food etc. I can wholeheartedly recommend Morocco Tours agency to anyone interested in traveling to Morocco.
