Privé 3-daagse woestijnreis van Marrakech naar Merzouga

Nous connaissons très bien le Maroc pour y être allés très souvent mais ces 3 jours à Merzouga étaient inoubliables. Mon ado aussi a adoré. Et un super grand merci à notre super chauffeur Rachid, pour sa joie de vivre et pour ses réponses à toutes nos questions sur les traditions et la culture du pays (c'est le Wikipedia du Maroc :) Nous avons vu de très beaux endroits. Les gorges Dades, la ville des roses, les studios de Ouazazate, la traversée dans le désert à dromadaire et enfin le bivouac avec un confort 4* inattendu et la gentillesse de nos hôtes sur place. C'est à faire... vraiment

We booked a private 3 day trip to the desert and requested an English speaking guide. We got a driver who could understand basic English but was in no way able to function as a guide. As we drove through various towns he would simply tell us the name of the town and was unable to add any further detail. He took us to the most touristic restaurants along the way where your options were limited to Chicken Tajin with fries or Spaghetti Bolognese. The desert bivouac is a long way from that pictured - there is no space between the tents and you can hear everything in the tents on either side of yours. The driver also took us to various places where we were pressured to buy various things - Argan oil, Carpets and numerous touristic junk (fridge magnets, etc) shops. That may be ok with some people but not what we wanted - the driver was very annoyed when we asked him to stop taking us to those places. I recommend avoiding this company - they charge a lot and are very comfortable cutting corners on accommodation and other things in order to maximise their profit.
