Review of our 3 days tour through the Merzouga Desert from Marrakech to Fes
A three-day trip from Marrakech to Fes
Ten family and friends and I had a great trip from Marrakech to Fes. For the group, I wrote this review to thank Hassan and Hamid for everything they did to make sure we had a marvelous trip. They spoke and wrote perfect English like they were from that country.
At first, we didn’t know what kind of car Youssef would give us. Then, to our surprise, it was a very nice Mini-van with Wi-Fi! We were shocked, yes. The hotel in Boumalne Dades that Youssef booked was very fancy for a four-star hotel.
I also want to thank the staff at the camp for being so kind and funny. Thanks for putting on the show.
We saw Barbary monkeys in one of the woods on the last day. It was my first time seeing one, and I fed them. Thanks, and we’ll be back with more friends.
Ride on a camel in Merzouga
When my wife and I went to Morocco, Hamid was our tour guide, and he was great. A friend of mine who had used this tour service before gave it great reviews. We’d like to thank Youssef for this amazing plan that includes so many fun places to visit. Hamid, thanks for being our friendly, informed, and patient tour guide. We will remember everything you said, even the puzzles.
It was great at camp! From the staff to the fancy tents, everything was just as promised.
You should take the Marrakech to Fes or Marrakech day trip if you only have a few days in Morocco.
Mountain Ranges City Desert
Friends told me about Youssef and his business, so I got in touch with him. We went on a dream tour to the Merzouga desert, stopping in Dades, Ouarzazate, and Atlas. There are many beautiful places that Aziz makes you enjoy even more. Thank you for the stories and the background.
Everything went exactly as planned, from picking us up at the airport to taking us on trips where we ate traditional foods like Berber pizza. We were so happy we can’t even put it into words. If we go back to Morocco, we will definitely get in touch with Youssef. An trip you’ll never forget
A great trip to Fes
The trip Youssef planned for us was great, and it went well even though it was Ramadan and there was a surprise heatwave. He’s a very good driver in a place where many people are bad at it. He always took our plans and dates into account, and the places he took us to were great, especially the Berber pizza in Merzouga.
He takes responsibility and keeps the promises he makes. It was great spending the night in the desert in the fancy tents. Some people took camels from Merzouga, while others drove 4×4. I’m thankful for his hard work, which made everything go easily.
