Moha was the best driver and tour guide on our trip! 🇲🇦 He was professional, friendly, helpful, and made the whole experience unforgettable. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Morocco. Thank you, Moha, for an amazing trip! 🙌
Moha was great! Arrived on time at every location and is very friendly safe driver. Would recommend!
Moha was an amazing driver and truly made our tour unforgettable! He was very informative, kind, and such a pleasant person to be around. He knew so much and spoke many languages, which made everything so easy and enjoyable. He kept the atmosphere fun with great music, jokes, and his positive energy throughout the trip. You could really feel that he wanted everyone to have a good time. We couldn’t have asked for a better driver and would absolutely recommend him to anyone! Thank you, Moha, for making our experience so special!
We had an amazing experience with our driver Moha throughout our Sahara tour! He was incredibly patient, polite, and energetic, sharing interesting information about the places we visited while making every journey fun and enjoyable. The music, dancing in the van, and his hilarious stories made the whole experience even more special. His positive energy and great sense of humor truly made our trip unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better driver and highly recommend him to anyone visiting Morocco! Moha you are incredibleeee!
We had really great time!!😊 the driver & the guide are very helpful!!
We travelled from Fes to Merzouga with Mohcine, and then onwards to Ourzazate & Marrakech with Moha! Both of them were amazing. Mohcine took lovely pictures of the group on the way to the desert. Moha has great energy and makes sure to keep the energy level high throughout the journey and make everyone feel included. We had a lovely time with a diverse group of people from across the globe. At the camp, Mustafa was absolutely incredible through the camel ride, sandboarding, and evening music. Only points of improvement would be to reduce wait time in the morning between pick up meeting time & actual start time as we had to wait around an hour on mornings 1&2 + having a fan in the desert tent during summer months (alternatively, lay it out clearly in the listing that the standard tent has no fan).
Said was an amazing guide!! Got to see some really great sights, and had plenty of time to explore each place. Said was easy to chat with, knew the tour sites and itinerary well.
This tour was really amazing, I met really good people in this tour, entire trip was well planned and organized. Good selection of tent and hotels, pickup and drop point were flexible. Our van driver and guide said arfoud is a really experienced and fun guy. I highly recommend going with this tour!
A very good experience with a night stay in the desert Najim was very friendly and very flexible with the schedules A must have experience
Najim is very friendly, asking us whether we need break or whether we are comfortable. Though lots of sitting in the car which is a bit boring.
Najim was very friendly and informative. He made the tour very enjoyable.
My wife and I had an excellent trip seeing the sights with our tour guides Soufiyane and Najim. Amazing drivers and super friendly to all. They were knowledgeable about the area and pointed out neat info along the way
Najim and Soufianne was a great tour guide. I highly recommend!
First time in Marocco with my girlfriend , I was a little skeptical before booking, I completly change my mind during this 3 days of Maroccan Full experience, good accomodations good food amazing people who make a great job and made work everything as it should in a really safe and joyful environment. Najim made our trip to another level his knowledge about the territory and Moroccan culture was extremely accurated, we can’t wait to be back and recommend to our friends to try this wonderful experience.
Najim was incredibly helpful during our long drive. Not only is he a great driver, but he also went above and beyond by helping us resolve a problem at our hotel. His kindness saved our trip! I can’t thank him enough for his support.
Najim is our guy and he is fabulous. Fun, helpful and accommodating to all of us. The best part of the tour is the Sahara camp and the old village of Ait banhadou. Camel ride was great. You are in luck if you get Najim as your guy.
Najim was a great driver and tour guide! We had so much fun on the trip exploring places we wouldn’t have reached by ourselves. The whole experience was unforgettable. Atmosphere was amazing, it felt like traveling with friends. Highly recommend this!!:)
I thought I booked just a ride… but got a full Moroccan storytelling show instead! Najim drove us perfectly and kept us entertained the whole time with fun and interesting stories about the culture and history. Super friendly, helpful, and funny—he made the journey fly by. If you get Najim, you’re lucky. Highly recommended! Thanks again! 🙌
I’m Sevim from Turkey. I joined this trip with my friend. Muhsin, our driver, took great care of us and was very warm and kind throughout the journey. He made sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times and also guided us very well along the way. Our trip was smooth and comfortable. The desert experience, the landscapes, and the overall atmosphere were truly impressive. Everything was well organized, enjoyable, and hassle-free. It was a lovely experience — I would definitely recommend choosing this experience without any hesitation.🌸
My drive from Merzouga to Fes was very enjoyable with Ibrahim B! We took some lovely breaks and he gave us loads of information:) Even through a snow, it was very safe!
Brahim is a very good driver and a excelent guide. He and Houssin make the Perfect duo. To me was very emocional, i sabe snow for the first time, and Houssin Made it possible!!!! We want to go again!!!!
What an awesome 3 days travelling thru Morocco! Our Guide Hassan was so attentive and always made sure we were all having fun. This is the perfect experience if you want to see the desert as well as the mountains.
Had an amazing 3 day journey from Fez to Marrakech with beautiful sights along the way in Zizi Valley, Merzouga desert, Todra Gorge, Dades Valley, and Ait Ben Haddou. The sunrise views from the Sahara dunes of Merzouga was the highlight of my trip to Morocco. Our guide Hassan was very hospitable, friendly, and knowledgeable as he hosted us on the journey. I highly recommend adding this tour to your itinerary even if your time in Morocco is short!
What a crazy time of year to visit! We had a blizzard in the mountains, and rain in the Sahara. While it wasn't exactly what I anticipated, I still had a great time. The rooms were very nice, and our driver, Hassan, was fantastic. It was a great way to explore Morocco and see some great sights.
Amazing experience. Very well organized. Educational, interesting and fun. Excellent accommodations. Hassan is great tourist guide. Very polite and friendly with a lot of interesting facts about the places we visited.
The 3D/2N Desert Adventure by Fes Desert Tours (booked through Viator) is not to be missed. Our overnight stay in the desert camp is a different kind of experience - tent and facilities are clean, there is heater and hot water, water closet has strong flush, food was delicious and generous, staff were all helpful and courteous. We rode the camel, did sandboarding and watched the sunset. After dinner there was bonfire and performance by the staff. In the morning, we watched the sunrise. It was a fun and different experience. I would like to commend Ibrahim, our amazing and fantastic driver for 3 days. We all felt safe with Ibrahim. It was snowing in the Atlas Mountain and he drove safely. All of us drive cars and we could tell how skilled a driver Ibrahim is. Ibrahim together with Hossein took good care of us, from our luggages to our photo shots to our meals - in one restaurant, when they saw that our food orders were taking time, they would check with the manager/owner and they would even bring plates to our tables. Our vehicle though could be better :) they look tired already.

My Merzouga desert tour was truly one of the highlights of my Morocco trip. The journey into the desert was comfortable and scenic, and we visited several beautiful places along the way, including Tinghir, Ouarzazate, Aït Ben Haddou, and more, each stop added depth and context to the experience. Houssin and Ibrahim were our tour guides, and they gave their best throughout the trip. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was comfortable at each stage of the journey. I highly recommend them.
Amazing trip. Highlights were magical night in the desert (remember to watch the starry sky), fabulous Atlas mountains and world heritage Kasbah. Our driver Ibrahim and the guide took care of us (a group of people from all over the world!) and shared their knowledge about Berber and Arabic cultures. We loved every moment of the trip, highly suggested.
Amazing trip through a HUGE part of Morocco from Fez to Marrakech. From adorable monkeys in Ifrane National Park to a breathtaking camel ride as the sun set in Erg Chebbi to (my favourite) the incredible historical site of Ait Benhaddou, where Gladiator and countless other films were made, this tour gave you an incredible look at this beautiful country. Our driver Said Erfoud, was awesome-super patient and flexible, and made sure everything went well, which was important, given the very long driving days. Highly recommend!
We had an excellent time. Very private and professional. Said was our driver and guide. He is such a caring person that speaks many languages and genuinely wants to make sure that his guests are comfortable and enjoying themselves. It was a wonderful experience! Thanks to all the team and especially Said.
We had Ibrahim as our tour guide and he was absolutely outstanding. Throughout the driving he'd point out interesting things to see, or give insights into Berber and Moroccan culture. Truly a 10/10 experience with him. The places you visit were great as well. Ait Ben Haddou was the highlight for me, but the dunes were absolutely mesmerising and the tent in the desert was lovely, with an ensuite,whilst also receiving great hospitality and food Thank you, Ibrahim. You helped make the tour as good as it was.
We had a very good experience with this tour Moha was an excellent driver and he gave us lots of information The desert tour was amazing
Mr. Mohaa our driver and guide was very good and he made the whole trip very enjoyable. He gave information about all the places and he is very careful driver. I would recommend this tour and going with Mohaa for anyone who is planning to visit Morocco.
Absolute loved it! The trip was planned out perfectly and we saw beautiful landscapes. Our driver Moha was extremely funny and helpful. Highly recommend.
My friends and I had an amazing time on the tour. The highlight for me was spending the night at the Sahara camp, where we stayed in beautiful tents and gathered around the fire in the evening, listening to local music and joining in the dancing. Our driver Moha was an incredible tour guide and made the whole experience even more special. I can totally recommend it!
We had a great time with Moha on our desert tour. He was an excellent driver and kept us entertained throughout. He was friendly and knowledgeable, giving us information about the places we stopped. The stops were great and we the night in the desert night was incredible! The camel ride and quad biking was great fun and an unforgettable experience!
We had a great tour with Moha driving us - we stopped in lots of amazing places and the desert was an absolute highlight. The hospitality was great, and the views of sunrise from the quad bikes are astounding. The camel ride is a great experience - it's an amazing place to visit! During the days, Moha took us to all the best spots and we saw beautiful views of the Atlas mountains, as well as visiting lots of local places with tours around each place. Moha made the long journeys very enjoyable and was so enthusiastic about all the places, giving us an insight into local culture.
We had the best 3 day, 2 nights Sahara Tour experience with Mahfoudh. He's the best! So professional, accommodating well spoken person. I was actually celebrating my birthday on 2nd September when he surprised me with a birthday cake and brithday song in the camp. That was very memorable for me. Thank you Mahfoudh for the best Sahara tour we could ever imagine. God bless you and see you next time. Inshaalla
We were a Jewish group that came from Israel we had moha the best driver in the world he is fun and everyone really enjoyed him,all the tour guides were amazing,the whole trip was beautiful,definitely recommend this company, and definitely ask for moah as your driver
Moha is the best driver in the world and the company is very nice too they took care of everything and amazing spirit would recommend them for anyone
Ibrahim, our driver, was a true blessing on our trip to Merzouga. He was punctual, attentive, and flexible. He made sure everyone was comfortable and I felt in good hands with him as our travel companion. He kept things very professional while at the same time being open to genuine conversation.
We did the tour in August, it was really hot but so so nice! Everybody involved is extremly welcoming and friendly! Our driver was Ibrahim and he is a very good driver, knows a lot and such a nice person! Thank you again! Would really recommend :) Lena and Hemma
Our driver Zaki was very friendly and helping. Everything was well organised and explained. Thank you for the unforgettable trip :)
I had a great time traveling through/sleeping overnight in the desert, riding camels, walking through the river in the gorge, and visiting the movie studio. Our driver Zaki made sure we were all well taken care of, stopping frequently for bathrooms/panoramic views, and explaining what we were seeing and doing at each stop. The desert tents were great with AC and running water. The camels seemed well treated. They also offered desert ATV rides but at an extra cost of 50 EUR per person per ATV or 70 EUR for a shared one, however, it can be done for half that cost in Marrakech (Agafay) so we didn't do it there.
Had a really good experience with my guide and driver Zaki! He was very attentive, stopped for panoramic views when noticing interest from passengers and very friendly that you could approach him with any question. He would assist you with any question and will stop when needed if you need to use the toilet etc. He also informed us really well and made sure we had a smooth experience throughout the multiple days. Especially really enjoyed the river visit. It was the highlight of my trip to Morocco!
The tour was really fun, especially seeing the desert and also the drive itself from Fès to Merzouga to Ouarzazate and Marrakesh was scenic and worth it. Especially our driver Zaki did a really good job in my opinion and we were glad to be in his bus. But he was more than only a driver, he was like a guide, helped us to feel safe and to find an answer to our questions. When arriving in Marrakesh, he also wanted to make sure we arrive safely at our drop off point. – Thanks so much for the past days, Zaki! 😊
It is an enjoyable experience to ride the camel and see the sunset. Although we have booked a luxury camp, the camp is not that luxury. Nevertheless, it is still a good experience to stay in a camp in Sahara Desert. The tour operator is very kind. They don’t just gave us the information about the tour before my trip, but also many information about Morocco that saved me lots of time to search for things. The driver Zaki is awesome. He gave us lots of information on the way and plenty of time to take pictures. On top of that, he was very caring and addressed all our needs.
Awesome coach and trip planning. Coach Zaki was very professional in taking care of the elderly and kid of my family. He drove safe and steadily. Very thoughtful in every way!
The trip was incredible: everything exceeded our expectations and the tours were lovely. Our guide Mohaa was very kind and informative, and a very good driver. I especially loved the small town tours on the road to and from the desert. Quad biking is also a MUST!!!!!
Moha our driver and guide was informative. The trip overall was amazing the stops, the culture, the guides along the way were all kind and greeted us with such hospitality. This trip was a once in a lifetime experience and I would recommend it to families, couples, friends and solo travellers. You meet lots of people along the way which makes the experience 10/10. Loved this experience and would recommend this trip to everyone.
