The highlight was definitely our camel trek into the Sahara desert, where we watched the sunset over the dunes and slept under the stars. The accommodations were comfortable, the food was delicious, and our guide was fantastic. If you're looking for a unique and memorable experience, this tour is a must! ...more ...less

Incredible Diversity in Landscapes

This tour was a feast for the senses, offering incredible diversity in landscapes and experiences. From the lush greenery of Skoura to the rugged beauty of Dades and Tinghir, each day brought something new and exciting. The highlight was, of course, our time in the Sahara desert, where we rode camels, explored the dunes, and stayed in a traditional desert camp. The entire experience was magical, and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic Moroccan adventure. Thank you Ismail and Morocco Private Tours ...more ...less
