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!*

Excellent experience throughout the whole trip. Very good service from our guide Ismael, super kind and fun. Worth the money!

Girl’s trip - We went on a 2 days tour from Marrakech to Zagora desert, and it was an amazing experience! Really recommend it. It should be in your bucket list.
Ismail is... read more a very nice guy, always smiling, sociable and likes to explain the information about cities and Moroccan culture. He is a really good driver and very respectful.
On the first day, we passed through the Atlas in direction to Ait-Ben-Haddou, where we had a tour visit with Said to know a little bit more about berbere culture. We ate an amazing chicken tagine there. Then we head to Zagora, where we had a team of Caravane du sud waiting for us with the dromedaries. We had a 1h ride on the dromedary accompanied by our friendly guide, Mohammed, to our camp. We arrived just on time to watch a magical sunset in the desert. We chose a luxury camp, that was absolutely amazing, with a tent with all the commodities that we could need. The tent was heated, with carpets on the floor, beds for all of us, and private toilets with shower. We had dinner on a tent restaurant, with really good and traditional food. At night all the guests reunited around the bonfire listening typical music and dancing. The sky is absolutely amazing and perfect to see the stars. On the next day we watched the sunrise in the mountains (after a nice breakfast). Then we returned with Ismail back to Marrakech, with a stop in Ouarzazate and Middle Atlas.
Ismail was a really nice company, and made this experience unique! I felt very safe during the trip, and Ismail always let us comfortable to choose which places to visit during the trip.
All the organization made this experience even more pleasant. It was also richer to know more about Moroccan culture and discuss the differences between European culture.
Really recommend this experience.

p.s. just be careful riding the dromedary.
