The trip was absolutely fantastic! Would highly recommend going with
‘Go Marrakech Desert Trips’. The journey was excellent and the music choice was great during our journey. Abderrahim made sure we got to the desert safely and was very friendly too. Absolutely brilliant. Truly was a trip of a lifetime. Thank you!

It has been an unforgettable experience. Abdou, our driver, has taken care that the trip goes beyond simple vacations. Allowing us to know the culture and lifestyle of the Amazigh people. In each of the accommodations we have enjoyed a wonderful treatment, taking care of all the details so that we feel at home.

Our trip from Marrakech to Fes was beyond amazing. The stunning scenery created unforgettable moments, and our driver Abdou’s friendly manner added a special touch to the experience, making it truly excellent. Although our time in the desert was short, Mubarak, our host in the luxury tents, shared captivating insights into Bedouin life, adding an exceptional touch to our experience. Our only regret was not spending more time in the desert.

We had a 4-day shared luxury trip with Abderrahim. He was a very nice and careful guide from first to last minute. The first day were a trail from Marrakech to Atlas Mountains and up to the tizin tichka peak. We continued our journey with a drive to Dades Gorges, then to Merzouga and overnight in Sahara. The most exciting things were the sunrise and quadbike ride.

This was my first time traveling with a group, and it was an awesome experience! 🤩 Abdou took care of every detail, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The van was super comfortable, making the journey easy and relaxing. We had the chance to try some fantastic local food—definitely a highlight! Our nights in Marrakesh were spent in a beautifully renovated riad, which added a touch of charm and authenticity to the whole experience. Highly recommend!

Best driver ever! We have had many before and after him, and he is the best by far. He put in a lot of effort to connect with us, and stop for photos and take us to special places that was not part of our tour. He was exceptional in every possible way. You will get a friendly, helpful and caring person when you go on a tour through Marocco with him
