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!!

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.

An awesome action packed adventure!  - This was such a fun and action packed trip. We saw so many interesting and beautiful sights and had so many adventures! Rene & Ismail were fantastic tour guides and... read more great company, Ismail was an excellent and safe driver (very comfortable van). There were many highlights but top ones include the most delicious lunch in a Berber family kasbah (best bread ever), seeing how Berber rugs are made at a cooperative and haggling for a small one, camel ride, tented camp, sand surfing and quad bikes in the Sahara, visiting Nomads in the desert and eating Nomad pizza, walking (& climbing) through the Monkey Fingers in the Dades Gorge, Ait Ben Haddou & the Atlas Studios .I could go on! We loved every minute and arrived back in Marrakech exhausted but very happy. If you are doing this trip we advise a day or two to relax afterwards!! We would thoroughly recommend Discover Sahara Tours and loved the fact that they could bespoke the tour for us. Thank you Rene & Ismail!

perfect Houssine - I went with 10 friends for five days and we had a great time. Everything very well organized by Houssine, the guide. We spent a night in the desert, went... read more camel riding and quad biking. The rest of the days they took us to various excursions and tourist places. I recommend going to Mareuecos with a guide because of the issue of communication with natives. Every day we slept in different hotels, all very good and very clean. We loved the experience

Fun journey to a beautiful starry night in the desert - My two favorite parts of this trip (the five star portions in my opinion) was seeing the gorgeous starry night sky in the desert and the drive to the desert... read more with our drive Ismael. Ismael was very informative on the various sights we passed on the drive, but also let us sit with the beauty of the scenery on the drive as we silently listened to music. It was the perfect combination of quiet moment and social interaction. He also made sure to check in on us at various points throughout the drive and was as accommodating as he could be. My friend and I booked the desert trip specifically for the night sky and it did not disappoint. Seeing the sky full of stars shining so bright was a breathtaking sight and an absolutely unforgettable moment. The camel ride was a lovely moment to take in nature and sit with your thoughts. With that being said the camel ride was longer than I expected as well as the large amount of soreness that followed afterwards. If you have any pelvic, hip, or lower back issues than the camel ride may not be the best option for you. Definitely make sure you have dirhams for the various pit stops on the journey, food, and for tipping the various guides.
*There are showers and bathrooms on the campsite which were very clean. The shower pressure wasn’t great but still felt amazing after a long day of traveling & exploring!*

Me and my husband booked the shared vehicle tour. However, the tour was full, so we were offered a private black Mercedes with 6 other people which was fantastic.

Breakfast break lunch break with Tagine lunch waa good. Feeding monkeys was fun and we were taken to beautiful spots for the pics. I would recommend anyone to book with this operator.

Amazing service  - I have already reviewed the tour itself (see my other reviews). I just wanted to add that the company is also absolutely fabulous - I forgot my scarf on one... read more of the buses and the guide came to my hotel the next day to return it and REFUSED my tip! Absolutely amazing! There are many companies offering these tours in Morocco but this is THE ONE to go for if you want top service.

Best Sahara tour - Ismail was the best guide super helpful and informative. A great way to experience true Moroccan culture and lots of fun. Would recommend.

Worth every single penny! - This tour was worth every penny! It should be in everyone's bucket list. We were 8 people in a nice, clean van with Ismael, from Marrakesh to Fes, with several... read more stops during the 3-day tour. Ismael is an excellent driver. It was awesome how everything was planned and on time at all the stops. We learned a lot about the Berber culture and visited different communities and Kasbahs. On the second day of our stop, we had a walking tour with Said, a beautiful morning walk around Tinghir. We stopped in a Kasbah to learn about the berber’s carpets, colors, and symbol meanings. We did not enjoy the food at some of the stops, so we went to other places nearby, and we found better prices and a more authentic experience than in the traditional “tourist traps”. The food stops for lunch are something that they need to improve. Of course, the best part is on the second night when we rode the camels to see the sunset and then arrived at our tents in the desert. If you have issues with your back or shoulders, I suggest you try to go to the tents by car. Everything in the desert was perfect. The food was abundant and delicious (when we were full and ready to go, they gave us the best Lamb Tahine we had on our whole trip. The tents were incredibly comfortable, with running water and an Occidental toilet. We had a firepit at night with live music under the stars. The sky was fantastic!!! Stargazing was very easy, even near some of the lights in the camp. We went in December, so you need to be prepared for a very cold night/morning.
