Desert Hikes & Trip Reviews
- 3 Days Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech
An amazing trip with our guide Anouar!!! Booked it with short notice prior to the tour start and and during insanely busy dates but still, accommodation was stunning both nights, and food during the trip was really nice! As said, it was high season and yet, somehow, Anouar managed to avoid rush hours for other tourism buses and minivans at most places so it was not as crowded. But more importantly, everyone we met, from Anouar to the personnel working at our desert camp (Tizziri), was passionate about sharing their love for their country, their culture.. Never felt like a “tourist trap” where someone performs an expected cultural ritual, but more like a group of friends inviting you over to their house. For that, we’re extremely grateful. We will definitely come back!
- From Cairo - Private 3 Days 2 Nights White Desert and Bahariya Oasis Tour
good experiences & many Thanks for more service. Best trip for me & my friend I will nominate you to all my friends
- Sahara Desert Trip 5 Days & 4 nights
All I can say is...fantastic!!! Lahcen with Morocco Mountain Guides was just amazing, flexible and had everything perfectly arranged. He went out of his way to adjust the trip and include things we really wanted to do but didn't think we had time to do(climb Mt Toubkal). The driver and guides we had were top notch, so informative, caring and helpful. I couldn't have asked for a better tour...highly recommend!!!
