Wir waren absolut begeistert von unserer Tour durch Fez und empfehlen Idriss sehr. Er ist unglaublich sachkundig, geduldig und freundlich und hat uns als Einheimischer einen authentischen Blick auf das Leben in der Medina gewährt. Wir fühlten uns wie geehrte und geschätzte Gäste und unser Tag mit ihm war ein echter Genuss - das Highlight unserer Reise nach Marokko. Wir hoffen, eines Tages zurückzukehren, um die Wüste zu sehen und wieder mit Idriss zu touren!
Hassan was a flawless guide and gave us a great tour or Fez, Chefchauoen and so much In between. He also dropped us at the ferry in Tanger. He is very knowledgable and a lovely bloke. Next time we will visit the desert when we return!
Cheers

If you're searching for a transformative Moroccan experience, look no further than Uniquely Morocco’s 3-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech. Our small group tour, led by Hassan, was filled with breathtaking landscapes, cultural immersion, and moments of sincere human connection.The tour began early from Fes. Within a couple of hours, we were winding through the cool cedar forests of the Middle Atlas, passing by Azrou where we paused to enjoy tea with a local Amazigh nomad family. This was an unexpected and intimate experience. Sitting inside a modest tent, sipping hot mint tea while hearing about life in the Atlas Mountains, gave us a human perspective that no guidebook could offer.As we continued south, the terrain transitioned to desert plateaus and eventually golden dunes. By the time we reached Merzouga, the sun was beginning to set. We mounted camels for a gentle trek across Erg Chebbi’s dunes. Riding through the shifting sands, with shadows stretching long and golden across the horizon, was unforgettable.The highlight came that night in the desert camp. The sky above was blanketed with stars. Clear, bright, and endless. I lay outside my tent for hours watching the Milky Way shimmer above me. The camp was simple but comfortable, and the warm hospitality of our Berber hosts added to the charm.The next day we enjoyed a special treat. Berber pizza in Rissani. This was no tourist gimmick. Our driver took us to a local spot known for its authenticity. The meat-stuffed flatbread, spiced just right and cooked in a clay oven, was delicious. We continued to Tinghir, where the dramatic Todra Gorge and its fortress-like kasbahs stood out against the cliffs. Walking through the valley and visiting one of the centuries-old kasbahs made me feel part of a living history.That evening, we stayed in the Dades Valley in a traditional guesthouse overlooking the valley’s red cliffs. The food was excellent, the rooms clean, and the view in the morning. Sunrise over the canyon. Was a photographer’s dream.The final leg to Marrakech took us through the High Atlas. The landscapes were stark and majestic. Our guide made thoughtful stops, including one with another nomadic family in a remote part of the mountains. Again, tea was offered, stories shared, and gratitude exchanged.Throughout the trip, Hassan and his team were attentive, kind, and extremely well-organized. Every detail was handled with care. His passion for his country, his cultural insight, and the way he builds meaningful local connections made this more than just a sightseeing trip. It was a genuine journey into Morocco’s heart.
