Best Morocco Desert Tour From Marrakech

6 Days Start from Marrakech to Desert

A great company always pending, planning with you the itinerary and taking you to see what you really want to see, without cheating. We were with them for 6 days, traveling through beautiful villages towards the desert where we spent the night in a desert camp. Spectacular in everything, their landscapes and their people. Ismail and his brother made the trip unforgettable. Great calm hotels.
My husband and I discovered a small piece of Morocco, but we learned about the whole country. Thank you Ismail for making it unforgettable!
