I highly recommend “Marrakech camel trips”. The itinerary that they offer is simply great. Moreover, you can modify it as you want. My girlfriend and I did the 8 day tour from Casablanca to Merzouga, and it was amazing! The staff of the company is the best! They’re great companions during the trip, they speak english, funny, flexible, helpful on providing information or if you need any help, and give you all the space you want. The only regret we have is that we didn’t sleep more than one day in Sahara desert. The desert itself is breathtaking, and the camp where we slept is fantastic! The camp is properly furnished with everything you need.
My wife, sister-in-law, and I hired Marrakech Camel Trips to take us from Tangier to Fes, Fes to Merzouga, and Merzouga to Marrakech. During our almost week together, our guide Ali Ozae showed us a plethora of amazing sights. We visited the ancient city of Volubulis, fed monkeys in the Atlas Mountains, stopped in numerous beautiful cities, and had a great ride / camp in the desert. We are extremely happy with everything. The team (especially Ali) was professional, funny, full of interesting information, and made the trip so much better. Ali even taught us some Arabic words. We would strongly recommend hiring them!
“Everything about this tour was amazing! The route was well-planned, with incredible stops at the Ziz Valley, Todra Gorges, and Ait Ben Haddou. The desert experience was the highlight—riding camels, watching the sunset over the dunes, and enjoying traditional Berber music at night. The accommodations were great, and our driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. A must-do tour!”
