Very good trip, nothing to add. Our driver Abdou is one of the reasons the trip went so well. We spent the first day visiting small villages, and all the places we visited were amazing. Welcoming and hospitable villages with a very good typical Moroccan Berber experience. The meals were delicious and inexpensive. The second night we spent in the desert, amazing view. We slept in tents under the stars, really cool. I recommend the trip 100%.

The 3-day trip was amazing. We have seen so much of the cities. Although it was quite touristy, with lots of people at all of the different stops, we still had a great insight into the landscape of Morocco. We saw beautiful places and I have the feeling I have seen some of the highlights in the country in only 3 days! All of the guides were super nice people especially our driver Abdu told us a lot about the country. He drove us safely everywhere and was very friendly. He deserves 6 stars out of 5.
