3 day tour from Marrakech to Fes - This was a 3 days trip from Marrakech to Fes and it was a truly fantastic experience. The beautiful night sky was like nothing I have ever experienced and the... read more various mint tea and berber whiskey stops on the way combined with food stops were convenient and timely. Ismail was a superb tour guide - always friendly and positive and a very proficient driver.

Excellent - Ismail is the greatest guide guy we could’ve had! We learnt a lot of his life and he was happy to share. He came to pick up us early in... read more the morning and made everything comfortable to us. He would stop on all the spots to let us take some pictures and he offered to take the pictures for us.
Small details, he would guide me to buy the greatest dates in the village!
Definitely highly recommended
See you next time

A trip made by the people - I went on a 2-day trip to Zagora desert and the highlight of the entire experience was our driver and guide, Ismael.

Sat in the front, Ismael was incredibly... read more friendly and talkative, happy to explain everything to do with Morocco from his perspective, and offered a really honest view of tourism, politics, the experience of people during the lack of rain, and more! Ismael is really funny and we made jokes throughout the journey, making it seem much shorter than it was.

Ismael showed us really interesting stops along our journey and has a great understanding of the land. He also worked well with the Berber people running out desert camp, who were all fantastic and really engaging.

I cannot recommend this enough- Discover Sahara Tours is Ismael's own business and he was so excited to give tourists his version of the desert experience! Here are some photos.

Memorable and authentic experience.  - Our guide was Ismail and he is very charismatic, friendly, and organized. We had a lot of fun exploring the charming Ait Ben Hadou village, although it would’ve been nice... read more to have more time. It was still enough though.

The camel ride was enjoyable because it’s very different from riding a horse and it’s also beautiful as they make sure to take you during sunset. After the sun sets, we arrived just on time to our Berber camp (the people indigenous to Morocco). There, they treated us to an epic tagine, good company, and Berber music around the fire. We finished the night with star gazing before sleeping in a luxury tent (compared to regular camping ofc). The next morning, it’s mostly driving back except for a very enjoyable lunch on a balcony with mountains hovering over you. I’m glad we did it and next time will probably do a 3-4 day trip.

Disclaimers you should know:
1. it’s a LOT of driving about 6 hours each day total. The first day is broken up with stops to a mountainside cafe, a town that’s been around since the 12th century and where they filmed many famous movies including the gladiator.

2. The camel ride is a lot of fun but be warned that the dunes are pretty small since we only get to the tip of the Sahara desert. If you want to get deep into the desert, you have to do a 3 or 4 day trip.

3. Bring layers if you’re going in the winter cuz it cools down a lot. I wore two layers of pants and two sweatshirts. I recommend a hat and gloves too.

2 great trips . One amazing experience. - I found Discover Sahara Tours online when looking for trips for my wife's birthday whilst on holiday in Morocco. I was given lots of advice on different trips offered,... read more and settled for a 1 day private tour including quad biking and a romantic dinner for 2 in the Agafay desert, then a 2 day private tour to Essaouira from Marrakech.

Our driver Mohammad for both trips was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, polite, flexible, nothing was too much trouble and even though we can speak French he was happy to talk to us in English (his English was very good).

The 1 day trip to Agafay took us quad biking as a private tour away from any big groups. The company used were very professional, safe and fun. Then onto a camp in the desert where we had the most amazing private dinner in a tent looking out over the desert. Again the company used was superb, attentive staff with great food and polite musicians.

The 2 day trip to Essaouira from Marrakech built in stops at cooperatives to see how argan oil is produced, (No hard sell) then on arrival checked us in to a fabulous Riad called Madada (available through the Royal package we chose). The trip included lunch and dinner at local restaurants and a private guided tour of the town. Our guide Hassan was excellent. We were given plenty of time to explore by ourselves but Mohammad our driver was always available if we needed help or to take us to the restaurants.

Overall our experience was 1st class, a credit to exploring in Morocco. Thank you Rene for guiding us through and arranging the booking , and for being flexible when we had to make changes). Thank you Mohammad for being an excellent guide.

Such a unique experience- loved everything about it! - Everything was so beautiful and the food was specifically incredible. Ismail, our guide was so helpful and made the trip so fun! We loved getting to do things off... read more the beaten path like having tea with a nomad family and sand-boarding in the Merzouga Desert. Highly recommend!

10/10 stars - I don’t know where to begin writing this review. This trip has been an absolutely incredible experience. However I think what made this trip the most memorable was the friends... read more I made along the way. Moham our guide was an actual blessing. A kindred spirit full of joy, happiness, knowledge and excellent sense of humor. He took time to show us places but also teach us about them as well as join us in all the fun adventures. The camp was amazing, I loved participating in all the fun activities, and everyone there showed us nothing but patience and kindness I will never forget. The trip became more than just a guide tour but a road trip with great friends.
