The camel ride across the golden sand dunes close to Merzouga, located at the edge of the western Sahara, is definitely the highlight of this tour. It's arguably one of the finest ways to experience the desert, offering stunning sunsets, clear skies filled with stars, and the chance to spend the night in Berber camps. If you can, choose a private tent, as nights in late November can get quite chilly.

Wow! What an incredibly well-planned trip. I honestly think it’s one of the best-curated experiences I’ve ever had. Mohamad is truly a gem. A few things to keep in mind: There’s a lot of downtime between stops, so bring a book or something to keep yourself entertained during the car ride. Each location includes a mini-tour, so make sure to have tip money ready. Also, the desert can get extremely hot during the day, so be prepared for the heat!

A beautiful tour, very well organized. The journey is long, but there are plenty of stops and interesting places to visit along the way. The guide was helpful, friendly, and really nice. The experience in the desert was unique and indescribable.

This was the best tour ever! We had an amazing time. Ali is hands down the best tour guide, and Moha was excellent as well. We had the chance to see so much of Morocco and learn a lot about its culture.
