3 Day Desert Tour From Marrakech To Fes

What a great experience, must do! The guide, group, accomodation and food was great. Specially the desert was amazing. We stayed in tents and did a camel ride twice. Thanks all!

Everything happened within what was presented! The responsible and attentive driver. Hotel (we upgraded) clean and dinner very good. Dromedalium tour was fabulous. I recommend!

The itinerary is solid and you will cover a number of must visit places along Marrakech to Merzouga. The tour driver, Mohamed, is excellent in all aspects. We spent considerable amount of our 3 days tour travelling on the road and I have observed that our driver knows the road very well and he drives carefully. He speaks good English and is hilarious at same time. He cracks jokes every once in a while and they are really funny. He explains the itinerary at the start of the day, he talks about the history of the places we visit, so this guy is all in one. During our trip, we came across other tourists who moaned about their driver who was rude, always shouts when calling out late tour members, doesn't speak good english etc. so I guess we were really lucky to have Mohamed as our tour driver. The van is comfortable and there is no problem for people with large legs. The drive from one one place to another takes around 2-3 hours, there are stops in between but I suggest you manage your toilet breaks and stash some food and bring water in your bag to avoid any inconvenience. In some parts of the tour, we met with local tour guides who showed us around the place. We paid 20 dirhams for this and I don't really mind this amount knowing it helps them. The local guides will lead you to shops selling various items from scarves, soap and perfumes to wool carpets. You should be careful when dealing with them because although they will encourage you haggle they can use tactics to appeal to your emotion and in the end, you will be persuaded to pay a handsome price. Saw this a number of times and an experienced traveller will notice the same for sure. The desert tour I think is the highlight of the tour. We had a two or two and a half camel ride in the desert before arriving to our camp in Sahara. My wife and I opted for a private tent and it was nice and comfy. The dinner in the camp is o.k, but other members of the tour didn't like it. We had chicken tangine, some bread, pasta and seasonal fruits. I guess you just have to lower your expectations as there is no chef in the middle of the desert. After the meal, we gathered around the bonfire and spent some time listening to the beats of the drum and Moroccan percussion instrument which I don't remember what it is called. The sky was so clear you can see the milky way and even the faintest star.Truly a must experience when you to go to Morocco. Although it was a pleasant trip for us, I suggest you do your own research. There are trips which give you option for hotel or tent upgrade during the trip, check if it is worth paying extra. If you have time, try to go around other shops before buying anything to get the best price.
