Testimonials

A spectacular 8-day trip through Morocco that we will never forget! From the moment we left Tangier, every place was a wonderful surprise. We started with the magic of Chefchaouen, the blue village, and continued exploring the history of Fez, where it seemed like we had traveled back in time. The Merzouga desert was the most incredible: riding a camel through the dunes and spending the night under the stars was a dream come true. The attention to detail, the organization, and the warmth of our guide made everything perfect. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to discover the authentic Morocco.

Anna

The best tour we have ever done in our lives! The 8 days from Tangier allowed us to experience the true essence of Morocco. From the landscapes of the Rif Mountains to the incredible Sahara Desert, each day surprised us more. The visits to Chefchaouen, Fez and Merzouga were unforgettable, but what touched us most was the hospitality of the local people. The desert camp was a magical experience, with a traditional dinner and Berber music under a starry sky. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt completely taken care of at every moment. This trip was an adventure that will remain in our hearts forever.
