  1. Alicia

    The highlight of my week in Morocco Amazing experience!
    The team treated me so well after I drove to Merzouga to start the tour. An hour-long ride by camel out into the dunes was very cool. Then watching the sunset was glorious. Our dinner was delicious and more than I could eat. Gazing at the stars out next to the fire was so peaceful. Watching the Berber’s make music was mesmerizing and they had so much fun playing and including us.

  2. Cindy

    Amazing Experience.
    I maximally enjoyed time spent between personal who carefully organised the whole activity. Camel trekking is an unforgettable experience, dinner was perfect, the program after the dinner was one of the best moments spent in the night desert which brought the true atmosphere to the whole program. Tents were also lovely located and furnished. Thanks to the personal one more time and to others, highly recommend!

  3. Mary

    Great adventourous experience! Spending nearly a weak exploring Sahara it was just as magical as it sounds, especially if your tour guides provide for everything, which they did in this case. The traditional moroccan dinner was amazing and spending time chatting and singing around the fire in the middle of the desert is truly an unique experience. Definitely recommended!

  4. Estelle

    Special experience and a great time! Great guide and transportation and hosts at the camp. The camel trek on the dunes was an amazing time, and dinner and breakfast at the camp was delicious. Highly recommended.

  6. Hope

    100% must do!
    I couldn’t speak more highly of this experience. The guides were extremely helpful, communication with the coordinator beforehand was easy and fast, and the trip itself made for wonderful memories. The tents we stayed in were probably our nicest accommodations in Morroco complete with running water, toilet, and shower.
