Testimonials

We did a 4 day, 3 night trip from Marrakech to the Sahara and back. Rashid, our guide was friendly and kind. Our 17 month old loved him! Everyone on the tour was helpful. We chose the superior package and did not regret our decision, especially with a 1 and a half year old. Would recommend!

Tracy T

My wife and I took out 1 and a half year old son on this trip and it was amazing. He had fun, the people we met were all so kind and welcoming, and they provided a kids car seat for the long trips. The car rides have plenty of stops to take pictures so he did not get too restless. Also, my wife has a gluten allergy and everywhere we went people understood what that meant and we're accommodating. Our guide was Rashid and he was so fun! Good driver, helpful tour guide, great with our little one! The only thing I recommend is a longer trip. We did the 2-night option and it was all just very fast. 3 or 4 nights would give more time for rest and recreation.
