Standard plan for 3 people (1 man and 2 women) The guide, Mr. Mustafa, was friendly and very kind. It was a little tiring to move the camel for a little over an hour and a half one way, but being able to travel by camel while surrounded by the desert is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Regarding the accommodation, I was very satisfied with the meals both at night and in the morning. Because there was only one window, the wind didn't come in much and it was hot. That's why the door was open until we went to bed. Since there was only one USB charging outlet, I took turns charging. It was a standard plan, so I heard that it was a shared toilet and shower with others, but it was a happy miscalculation that it was prepared separately for each camp! It was a very satisfying and valuable experience.

We had an incredible experience touring Morocco with Omar as our guide. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making sure we had the best possible experience. What stood out most was how well he balanced structure with flexibility. He clearly knew the itinerary inside out and kept everything running smoothly, but was also more than happy to adapt plans based on what we were interested in. That made the whole trip feel personal rather than rushed or overly scripted. Omar’s knowledge of Morocco was exceptional. Whether it was history, local culture, or just practical advice, he always had thoughtful insights that added real depth to everything we saw.. He was also very easy to get along with. Friendly, patient, and always approachable, which matters a lot when you’re spending long days travelling. He made the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable, not just informative. Overall, I would highly recommend Omar to anyone visiting Morocco. He genuinely elevated the entire trip and made it far more memorable than it would have been otherwise.
Omar was very nice and friendly and a very good tour guide ! The activities at the desert were amazing !
The entire itinerary was carried out very smoothly, without any problems. The guided tours were excellent, and the local people who assisted us thanks to Ali were very kind when attending to us. Very grateful!
All was perfect and nice 😊 Well organized trip and great guide!
Graet trip with exelent guide. Ali was friendly and everything was ok
Amazing Very friendly guide Beautiful views
Very good camps. Our guide Ali really took care of us and showed genuine Moroccan hospitality. We can strongly recommend his service.
Great way to discover Morocco outside of the bigger cities. There were guides at the stops to tell us more and answer all our questions. The accommodations and restaurants were good as well!
This tour was an unforgettable journey into the heart of Morocco. The scenery was stunning — from the Atlas Mountains to Ait Ben Haddou, Ouarzazate, and the beautiful Ziz Valley. We had plenty of stops for breathtaking views, which made the long drives really enjoyable. Visiting some of the berber villages made this experience feel authentic as we got to learn more about their traditions and way of life from local guides. The highlight was arriving in Merzouga — the camel ride into the desert, the sunset over the dunes, and the evening with bonfire music under the stars made it truly unforgettable. Ali and Youssef made this experience unforgettable. Ali was always attentive, took great care of the group and shared a lot of interesting things along the way, which made the trip feel more special. He made sure everyone felt comfortable and included throughout the journey. Our driver Youssef made us feel safe the whole time. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Big thank you to both of them for making this journey an incredible experience!
We had a blast! It's a must to do this experience if you come to Morroco!! Ali our guide was really helpfull and very knowledgeable! The trip to Sahara dessert it's worthing!
This tour was a perfect way to discover Morocco beyond Marrakech. The scenery was stunning, from the mountains to the desert. The Sahara camp experience was magical, and everything during the trip was very well organized. A big thank you to our guide Aliiiii for his enthusiasm and knowledge, and to our driver Youssef for making the journey safe and pleasant. We leave Morocco with beautiful memories from this adventure.❤️
This experience was amazing!ALii🙏🏻 was our driver and he was extremely helpful and very interactive with us. He led us through the Atlas Mountains and made stops along the way to be able to take pictures which was really nice. Once we arrived at the drop off point, the guides were very helpful getting us to the camp and settled in. The activities were fun and the food was excellent. On the way back,Aliiiii was already at the pick up point and drove us back through the mountains and allowed us to take more pictures including a group photo with him which was very nice! Overall it was a great experience and I would highly recommend! Thank you Aliiiii🙏🏻🙏🏻
It was mine and my friends first time in Morocco group of 3 girls. Our experience has been amazing. Though there was less time in the desert than I thought, we got the chance to learn about the culture and have learned so much during our time that I wouldn’t have even considered learning back home. It is very well organised and our guide Ali and driver Mahdi were both amazing and couldn’t fault either of them at all. Thank you so much for the experience we would definitely return in the future!
The three day tour was absolutely amazing. Being three girl travellers we were slightly nervous however everything was exception, from the views, meals, entertainment and activities. Such a great cultural experience which was truly rewarding, thank you to Ali and Mahdi for everything.
Great experience. Ali, the tour guide is great craic and could not be more friendly, and is very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend it. The food was delicious. The driver is very pleasant and won't delay.
This tour was one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. Ali was an excellent guide who made everything easy and enjoyable. He shared many interesting facts about Morocco and always kept a positive attitude. The trip was well planned and we always felt safe and respected. Thank you for such a memorable adventure!
Three-day journey with Ali was truly fantastic. From the moment we met him, he was welcoming, friendly, and very professional. As two young girls traveling together, feeling safe was very important for us, and Ali made sure we always felt comfortable and protected. Everything was well organized and easy. We loved discovering Morocco's beautiful landscapes and culture with him. Thank you, Ali, for making this trip such a wonderful memory!
Great Guide and Very Clear Explanations Ali was a very friendly and professional guide during our trip. From the very beginning, he explained everything to us clearly and made sure we understood all the important details of the tour. On the first evening, he took the time to explain the whole program and how everything would work during the trip. Thanks to him, everything was very clear and easy to understand. To be honest, Ali did his job very well. If someone says they didn’t understand, it’s definitely not because of Ali — he explained everything carefully and made sure everyone had the information they needed. We really appreciated his kindness, his patience, and his professionalism throughout the tour. Thank you, Ali, for your great work!
We had an absolutely incredible experience the Sahara truly captured my heart. We spent two wonderful days, and everything was perfectly organized down to the smallest detail. ALii was our guide, and he made the entire trip unforgettable. He kept us laughing, guided us throughout the whole journey, and made us feel comfortable and well taken care of at all times. The organization was excellent. I highly recommend this experience to everyone, and I will definitely come back again.
Trip was amazing! We enjoyed so much!
An Unforgettable Moroccan Adventure! This tour was absolutely amazing from start to finish. We explored incredible places beyond Marrakech — stunning landscapes, authentic Amazigh culture, Aït Ben Haddou, Todra Gorge, and the unforgettable Sahara desert experience. Everything was perfectly organized, comfortable, and smooth. The desert camp was magical, and the whole journey felt safe and exciting. A special thank you to our guide Ali for his great knowledge, positive energy, and clear explanations — he made the trip truly memorable. And big thanks to our driver Rashid for his professionalism and safe driving. If you want to see the real Morocco, this is the tour to book!
The trip was lovely! We were really lucky with our group, and our tour guide, Ali, was outstanding. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and always willing to be flexible and accommodate the group’s needs and requests. My boyfriend was experiencing severe back pain, and Ali went out of his way to arrange for him to skip the camel ride. Personally, we would have loved to spend a bit more time in the desert and have fewer stops along the way, but we understand that this is how the tour is structured. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Highly recommended!
A really excellent experience! I recommend it.
This experience was truly unforgettable and filled with incredible moments. Every day brought new landscapes, culture, and adventure. Visiting Ait Benhaddou was a highlight the kasbah is absolutely stunning, with beautiful architecture and fascinating history. Walking through its narrow paths felt like stepping into another time. We also explored the breathtaking Todra Gorge, where the massive rock walls and peaceful atmosphere made it a perfect place to relax and take photos. The most magical part was riding camels across the golden Sahara dunes to watch the sunset, followed by an early sunrise that was calm, quiet, and simply beautiful. Our guide Omar was amazing friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. He made sure everyone felt comfortable and shared so much about the local culture. It was an incredible adventure I will always remember.
We had an amazing experience - from the beginning to the end. Our driver Hisham was very professional and so were the guides. I recommend.
Our experience with Discover Sahara Tours was absolutely unforgettable and one of the highlights of our travels. From the very beginning, the team showed outstanding professionalism, organization, and warmth, making everything smooth and stress-free so we could fully enjoy the adventure. A very special thank you to Omar “Mohammed” and Hussein “Fitipaldi”, who were simply amazing. They treated us with genuine kindness, familiarity, and care, making us feel like we were traveling with friends. Their professionalism, knowledge, and sense of humor made every moment enjoyable. They were always attentive to our needs, shared fascinating insights about the culture, and made sure we felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey. The Sahara experience itself was magical. Riding camels across the golden dunes at sunset was peaceful and breathtaking, and the silence of the desert is something truly special. The camp was beautiful and welcoming, the night sky full of stars was unforgettable, and the traditional music around the fire created a warm and joyful atmosphere. The food was delicious and generous, reflecting true Moroccan hospitality. Every detail of the trip, from transportation to the carefully planned stops, showed the company’s commitment to excellence and guest satisfaction. We highly recommend Discover Sahara Tours to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable desert experience. Thanks to Omar and Hussein, we leave with incredible memories and a deep appreciation for the Sahara. We would choose them again without hesitation

From the stunning mountains and charming villages to the magical Sahara desert, every moment made us smile. Quads, sandboarding, and camel rides—pure fun and adventure all the way! Watching the sunset and sunrise over the golden dunes? Absolutely breathtaking.

Go! Ali? Simply the best! 🌟🔥
Totally worth it. The night sky is marvelous, and Hicham is very professional. The people at the desert camp are very kind
We had an amazing time on our Marrakesh Desert Safari & Camp experience . Our tour guide Hecham was so kind and friendly and explained us the history and culture of the place. The camel ride across the dunes was especially during sunset and the return of RTV will always be my favourite. We also visited a beautiful Todra gorge, Atlas Mountains, saw how traditional carpets are made, and explored a traditional kasbah, which gave us a great glimpse into Morocco’s culture. Our local guide Mohammad who was at the night tents made sure we had a good time. It was truly memorable experience we would highly recommend!
Hicham was an excellent tour guide. His playlist is excellent so you will enjoy the ride even more. We have a fabulous time. Would highly recommend Discover Sahara tours!
Sahara trip was excellent. Omar was a great host.
Great experience! Our guide Omar was great fun, told us some interesting facts during the journey and made sure we felt welcome! The lansscapes of Morocca are beautiful, camel ride by sunset and sunrise was amazing and all people we met were warm and respectful. Would definitely recommend it, since we had a great time!
Very good experience with Youssef
It was a great experience, everything was well organised. Our guide was Mohamed, he was really nice, always taking care of the group and been aware that we were fine and enjoying.
It was a good experience for travelling with this team. Felt More friendly and comfort and totally worthy. Our guide was mohamed el qayed
Very well organized, but the camp was in a small dune not a real desert. I would totally recommend it tho. Hichian was the best driver and very nice.
This was an incredible, once in a lifetime experience!Aliiiiiii was a wonderful guide🙏🏻, making sure all of our needs were met, knew every member by name and always had a smile! While the drive is long, there are plenty of stops, even for our I1 year old. In a single day, we experienced a sunrise in the mountains, snow-capped peaks, a visit to a Unesco site, camel ride, desert sunset and warming bonfire with local music! if you are wondering whether its worthwhile, just book immediately! I genuinely cannot recommend this enough. And hopefully you are lucky enough to get ALi as your guide! See
My experience in the Sahara Desert was absolutely unforgettable. From start to finish, the entire activity was perfectly organized and incredibly authentic. A special thank you goes to our guide, Omar, who made everything smooth, safe, and truly memorable. One of the highlights was the camel ride across the golden dunes. Riding through the desert as the sun began to set was magical. The sky turned beautiful shades of orange and pink, and the silence of the Sahara created a peaceful atmosphere I will never forget. Watching the sunset from the top of a dune felt surreal — the sand glowing in warm golden light was simply breathtaking. The night at the desert camp was just as special. Delicious traditional food, a sky full of stars brighter than I have ever seen, and the calmness of the desert made it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Waking up early for the desert sunrise was absolutely worth it. Seeing the first light slowly illuminate the dunes was emotional and powerful. The colors, the silence, and the fresh morning air created a moment of pure beauty. Throughout the entire experience, Omar was kind, professional, and attentive, making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. This was not just a tour, but a true Sahara adventure that I would recommend to anyone without hesitation.
It was the most beautiful experience we had in Morocco. The many hours of travel were worth it for the beautiful landscapes we saw. We made several stops to see beautiful and different scenery; everything was wonderful, especially when we arrived in the desert, where we saw both sunset and sunrise. On the way there, we took a quad and did sandboarding, while on the way back we took camel. In the evening, we all hung out around the fire and saw a wonderful starry sky! It was incredibile! Our guide Aissa was fantastic, kind, and always available. Definitely a must-do! Thank you for everything Aissa, you are number one!
Excellent tour highly recommend. Our tour guide Aissa was great, he knew the desert very well as he is from the area. He was very helpful with every question we had and tried to find a solution for everyone’s needs. He tried to accommodate to different languages our group spoke. Overall the trip was great very beautiful scenery and an unforgettable experience. The staff at the camp was very nice and accommodating.
Aissa was amazing, he was with us for the entire trip, always very nice and fun!! The experience was great and the best part was the desert where we met friendly people always at our disposal.
An amazing experience that can’t be missed if you come to Morocco! The trip was amazing! Our guide Omar is super knowledgeable and friendly (he speaks Arabic, English, French and Spanish so communication is not a problem), the driver was professional and really friendly too. The tour is well organised, always on time and a big value for the money. There is a lot of hours driving between the three days, but toilets/food stops are planned every couple of hours, so it doesn’t feel too heavy. All the local guides are really knowledgeable and welcoming. Particularly loved the visit to the Berber village. The desert experience was great as well. All the Berbers guys at the village are welcoming and super friendly. We stayed at the deluxe cap, so can’t talk for the standard one, but the tents were really nice and clean. The beds are comfortable. Be ready because it does get really cold in the night and morning. The beds have three layers of blankets on so you can manage to keep yourself warm
Wow: what an amazing experience The people and most of all the guide Omur and driver Hami: really looked after us and created a great group feeling throughout Never done anything like this - I’m 50 - and would definitely recommend. What a way to travel, connect and discover A real adventure and exploration: sunset and sunrise memories and happiness
Our guide was omar, he is a very nice and funny guy to do the trip with. We also did the quadtou in the desert and I highly recommend to do it. The food was okay and the hotel and desert was also good for the price. We had very much fun!!
It was a beautiful experience. The desert camp is well organized and the camel trip is visually stunning. There is a warm atmosphere in the camp, with live music and friendly people. The driver is also very friendly. When I lost my tablet, he went out of his way to make sure I got it back. Would recommend!
Super organized and very friendly tour guide … food at the accommodation was the best food we had in Morocco and room very cozy. Highly recommended
Three wonderful days Professional and friendly 😃(Omar and Redouane) were very good.
The trip has been fantastic, guide Omar and driver Ridouane were always very friendly and attentive to everything we needed. Highly recommended , an experience d
Well arranged tour and you will pass all the highlights! The ideal way to get from one place to another! The camp in the desert was very nice and everyone was very welcoming everywhere.
