Our Sahara Desert Experience from Marrakech

From the moment we were picked up. We had wonderful experience all the places that we went were amazing Going into the Sahara on a 4 x 4 and seeing water in the desert was a rare occurrence along with the camel ride in the desert night was a great experience.

There was a lot of driving hours on the last day, yet Ismail made it feel shorter and we had stunning stops and views along the way.

Ismail was a very informative welcoming guide. He explained everything to us in every location that we were at. I would recommend this 3 Day Tour tour and Ismail to anybody.
