EXCELLENT Based on 801 reviews Posted on massimiliano zVerified MOROCCO FROM SCREAM Amazing Morocco! A 10-day tour perfect in every detail: desert, kasbah, imperial cities, souks and breathtaking sunsets. Everything organized to perfection by Marrakech Camel Trips and the great Brahim Mouhou, always available and super professional.But the real icing on the cake was our driver Ali: a phenomenon! Punctual, kind, patient, funny and with impeccable driving. He pampered us throughout the trip, made us discover incredible places off the usual routes and made us feel like family.Thank you Brahim, thank you Ali... you are an unbeatable team!We will definitely be back with Marrakech Camel Trips... and hope to find Ali behind the wheel again!Posted on Monica VVerified Morocco a wonder Beautiful Tour very intense departure from Marrakech quartzazat msierzouga desert tented camp Fes and other destinations up to Casablanca with a guide named Ali very good very professional, kind we could not find special person highly recommendPosted on Diego MVerified Private tour Thanks to Ali exceptional and competent driver we left Marrakech to visit part of Morocco including desert where we stayed in a tented camp (unique wonder sunset and sunrise). Arrived Fez then Rabat and Casablanca, and after nine days we returned to Marrakech. What can I say finally....Posted on Paola SVerified Wonderfull Morocco Beautiful tour, very articulate, we visited the most important cities from north to south including the Desert experience. All "carpooled" by a good and very special driver: Ali'.Everything went excellently, nice facilities and great reception. Ten magnificent days where we experienced Morocco in all its glory. Super recommendedPosted on Giulia MVerified Through Morocco Overall positive experience, excellent for a first visit to Morocco.The Tuor allows, in comfort, to leave from Marrakech and arrive in Fes through breathtaking landscapes, unfortunately mostly enjoyed exclusively from the window.Ali our friendly and welcoming driver immediately put us at ease, and it was pleasant to chat with him, but do not forget that it is a driver and not a guide, so you have to get prepared if you want to find out more about the places visited. The hotels and the desert camp were all for us (amazing but true, perhaps due to the low season) and all the staff were very welcoming, especially Mohamed (with whom we spent a pleasant evening in front of the fire in the Dades Gorges) and Mustafa and his staff (who played for us in the desert).In conclusion, the positive aspects were the comfort and security, which allow (if you have little time) to get a first idea of what Morocco has to offer; what I appreciated less was the superficiality with which we visited some points of interest (little time and little explanation). As for organization, communications and payments we had no problem, Brahim and Ali were always super helpful and clear!Posted on Valentina PVerified Morocco on the road: beautiful! This tour allowed us to discover and admire the beauty of this territory thanks to the availability and sympathy of our driver Ali. In four days we saw and knew many local realities. A welcoming and kind people.Posted on Austin WVerified Hope to come back one day! Awesome experience. Unfortunately our flight in was delayed, causing us to arrive late. However, our guide Ali adapted the itinerary with the time we had and showed us an amazing time. Merzouga, Rissani’s Souk and the mountain views of the High Atlas were absolutely incredible.Posted on Mikel MVerified Travel from Marrakech to Merzouga in 5 days. Hello,I just did a tour with Marrakech Camel Trips, starting in Marrakech, going through the Atlases and arriving at Merzouga Antler. It has been a very complete journey where we have been able to see and live a very positive experience with our guide Salah. Culture, landscapes, customs, amazing hotels... everything we have seen has fascinated us. The service they offer is highly recommended. The initial contact with Brahim was exceptional, and his clear and quick answers led us to choose this agency for our tour, as he helped us from the beginning with the different doubts and questions we had. Salah’s fellowship, and his professionalism also deserve a mention, no doubt. He kept an eye on us at all times and helped us a lot with the different plans we had in mind.
