Tour Reviews
The driving alone is worth the price of admission! You get to see so much of the Atlas Mountains and stop in so many cool villages. Ali is an excellent driver who is well-versed in these routes. The desert camp was stunning, and my first camel ride was unforgettable.
Hanna
This company was fantastic! You get a lot out of it. Ali, our driver, was extremely helpful. He picked us up in Fes, drove us to the camel camp, and then drove us back to Marrakesh. He made sure our belongings were safe and showed us all the tourist attractions along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend it! Also, the gentleman who helped me make reservations was fantastic. We only communicated via email, and he was extremely helpful in setting everything up and working with our changig plans. This is the only company with which I would do this again! 100/10!!
