We have had a fantastic experience we will never forget our guide ishmail was the best and helped us whenever we needed him his cheerful manner made our holiday even... read more better we would and WILL recommend him to everyone.
As this was a special holiday having such a guide made it even more special than we could have dreamed of we are very grateful our photos and memories we remind us forever.

Amazing experience  - Hussain was the best driver - AFRICA MAMA ???? merci! So many incredible stops along the way, and the camel ride was a bucket list item.

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.

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.

A great experience with a nice tour guide - The Tour was amazing so many new experiences and our tour guide Hassan was just lovely. He made our tour fantastic and comfortable. Hassan could speak english, Spanish and... read more Arabic fluently.

This was one of the best trips of my life. The trip was me and 2 friends and we all couldn't be happier with it. Mohammad was our tour guide... read more and he's a great guy, a good driver, very knowledgable and an excellent addition for the three of us on our 3 day journey.

We were picked up in Marrakech, made numerous stops at interesting points along the drive to Zagora (where we spent the first night). The hotel we stayed at was really lovely and secluded.

Then the highlight was the excursion to Erg Chegaga. Mohammad had the great idea to do a picnic in the Sahara rather than another restaurant lunch. So we stopped at a butcher and bought lamb chop and grilled them on our own in the middle of the Sahara!

The accommodations at Erg Chagaga were lovely. As was the camel riding and star gazing at night.

My only recommendation to a future traveler is go for longer than 3 days/2 nights if you can. I wish I had had at least 1 more day in the desert.

It was an incredible tour! We were a group of 4 girls and it was great and safe. Our guide Ishmael was pleasant and knowledgable. The overnight camping was an... read more amazing experience. We Got to witness a night sky full of stars and also see the sunrise the following morning along with some delicious food. We were provided warm blankets and slept well. A Moroccan experience that I would highly recommend!!
