Camel Ride at Zagora
The most caring staff I have ever met are the Unique Desert Tour. From Youssef the camp manager who played music for us. In the beginning, we want to thank Youssef for tailoring the entire trip. He made what we needed. What we needed. Moreover, for our daughter of 3 years, he ensured we had a baby seat.
In addition, our skilful guide, our great English speaker, Hassan, is very much to our liking.
We come back after the pandemic and book with this agency again, I hope all would be as beautiful. Thank you! Thank you. With more friends, we're going to be back.

2 days tour from Marrakech to Zagora
We are 5 people from a family. At the beginning we thought that finding an agency that could look after accommodation and transportation was somewhat difficult. But we found Traveling in Morocco after a thorough comparison of the company's reviews. The best desert tours operator has been highlighted. They gave us a local guide before our trip to show us who was friendly and knowledgeable in Marrakech.
Aziz, our guide was the joyful young man and the reason we did this review on our journey often. Thank you for all your input, your smooth driving... We want to say thank you... In your life we wish you all the best.
The camp was awesome and the camels were chilling because of the company and we hope we'll be back for a longer trip.

Marrakech desert tour 2 days:
The desert of Sahara in Morocco was a dream place in the middle of which we always want to visit and sleep. The only difficulty was to decide which desert to choose. We have chosen the nearest one to Marrakech, Erg Chabbi or Erg Chegaga, and we have booked it in Morocco with Traveling.
As guide Hamid was at the same time driving and explaining, and he did quite well.
The best place we visited was Ait Ben Haddou, which looks real and ancient. The camels are much larger than anticipated in Zagora. In addition, under the beautiful sky, Berbers' music show was incredible. Thanks to all of you guys! 2 day tour from Marrakech to the Zagora desert highly recommended!
