The tour was very good. We had a guide that accompanies you throughout the tour, in our case it was Zohir and the driver was Ismael. Both were excellent. Zohir answered absolutely all my questions, always well predisposed and with a huge smile explaining everything and accompanying us for anything we needed. Ismael, the driver was impeccable!! we drove a lot of kilometers and sometimes on winding roads and with a lot of traffic in front of us and I felt absolutely safe. We also had local guides in each city we arrived in who did the city tour. The one in Casablanca was very good, his name was Sila and also the one in Rabat, I don't remember his name. The hotels in general were very good! I loved the one in Casablanca. An incredible breakfast. It seemed to me the right balance between desert and cities.
- by ana maria brownOverall the trip and the organization were very good. The hotels were good except for the one in Fez (Ramada by Wyndham) which was old, outdated and the breakfast was very bad. Adnam our driver was unbeatable: attentive, helpful and willing to make things easy for us. The guides were good, highlighting those we had in Casablanca (Azdine) and in Fez (Khalid) who were outstanding (5 stars). The opposite with the guide in Marrakech (Abdul) who was terrible: he didn't give any explanations, the visits were quick and he was in a hurry, and in the Medina the opposite, entering several stores chosen by him to buy from us but here he was not in a hurry. The tour that was supposed to be all day was only 3 hours and left us without visiting several places specified in the itinerary. The agency in this sense did not respond to our request, the only but I can put to them.

Excellent in all ways. The tour guides were beyond helpful. Downright heroes for the cause of adventure, comfort, information and cultural exploration and understanding.
- by Hughes KraftMy highlight was cycling through the desert mountains, taking in all that fabulous scenery. We were lucky 🍀 as we arrived at the end of our cycle route to stumbble across a bunch of camels just roaming about. Which was a fabulous prelude to going into the desert on my trusty camel called Almond. We were so shocked when we arrived at the desert camp to discover that it was a mini Arabian paradise to experience, with football in the desert,sunsets, bonfires, music and dancing to bring the new year. Thrilling!

Our tour guide Hamza was very attentive to each person's needs and really helped make things easy for our group. Weather in November was great most of the time and we avoided most of the dreaded heat in Morocco, although we had some chilly days in the mountains as rain moved in. Hotels were hit or miss sometimes. Take some Imodium and Pepto bismol with you as traveller's diarrhea is common in the area but pharmacies have most medications you would need available otherwise. Alcohol was surprisingly available, even in mostly rural areas but if that matters to you ask your tour guide as often alcohol is hidden away and there is not a strong drinking culture in Morocco. You will get tired of couscous and tagine eventually so keep that in mind when you have good alternative options (sometimes the alternatives are not good). With that said, it's an amazing cultural experience and I learned so much about the national history as well as meeting some great people and having a blast. I would wholeheartedly recommend it as long as you're open to adventure.
- by Dawid SmithOur guide Hamid was excellent. The only complaint I had was the lack of diversity of food; yes part of the experience travelling to different countries is trying the local food, but staying at the riads the food was constantly tagine. We were a bit annoyed of the food after a few days. The last day in Marrakesh was very rushed; we arrive early afternoon and was taken to a long tour of the palace then the souks. We were a bit bored and annoyed especially that we wanted to explore the souks to shop.

Best tour ever What an amazing trip. I highly recommend this tour. Everyone who works there is wonderful and so sweet. The food was fantastic. The tents are very nice and comfortable. And there’s nothing like watching shooting stars in the middle of the desert <3 do it! You won’t regret it!

A very nice active and interesting trip. Our guide was Mohammed. I recommend everyone to choose this trip instead of a short cheap three day trip to the desert from Marrakech. On the short trip you sit in the bus more than you see anything. On this trip you really get to know the country, do exciting activities, sleep in nice hotels and although you have to travel a lot it doesn't feel that way because there is a fun activity or sight seeing every so often. We were very lucky with our guide. He has a pleasant personality, is open minded and because he himself comes from a Nomad family, we learned about Nomad life up close. We visited a Nomad family; very special how they live and how hospitable they are. Besides the activities from the standard program, Mohammed also looked at other activities that fit our interests. For example, we visited a car museum. Really interesting. A trip never to forget.
- by Susan JoostenThe whole trip was a whirlwind of experiences and adventure. When they say it is active then you need to believe it, every day is full of different trips and activities, you are not in any one place more than one night, and it is tiring. Yes, as others have noted, you spend a lot of time on the road; this is because the country is vast and many of the sights and locations are spread far and wide. What is really great though is that the experienced guide will manage the time spent in the vehicle with stops, lunches and visits, so you always have something to break up your time on the road. Our guide, Mohammed, was just amazing and so knowledgeable. He listened to what we wanted to get out of our trip, was flexible and accomodating. He was able to take us to several places that were not on the itinerary, which made the trip so much more special, because we were able to immerse ourselves in local culture. We cannot stress how special he made it for us. TouregTrails was brilliantly and efficiently organised, we absolutely would go back and would love to see a different part of Morocco with them, and Mohammed as our guide.

Traveling with Morocco Magic Trip Company on their 5-day/4-night desert trip from Marrakech was an absolute delight. From the mesmerizing desert landscapes to the warm hospitality of the team, every moment was unforgettable. The well-planned itinerary covered a perfect blend of iconic sites and hidden gems, and the accommodations were both comfortable and charming. The highlight was undoubtedly the desert experience, complete with camel treks, stunning sunsets, and nights under the stars. Highly recommended for an authentic and enriching Moroccan adventure.
- by daniel morroneEmbarking on a 3-day desert journey with Morocco Magic Trip from Marrakech to Fes was an adventure beyond my wildest dreams. From start to finish, every moment was filled with awe-inspiring sights, warm hospitality, and unforgettable experiences. The trip seamlessly blended the enchanting charm of Morocco's cities with the mesmerizing beauty of the desert. Our journey began in Marrakech, where we were greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable guide. The comfortable transportation and well-planned itinerary immediately put us at ease.

Our tour guide Rachid was the best!
- by Bianca BreuerAbdul did an amazing job as a guide. I can not thank him enough. The itinerary contains a lot of travel time, however allows you to see a lot within a short time. I would not have minded another day in the desert. :)

Our journey in Morocco was fantastic. The tour took us to many interesting places, making the trip enchanting. Surprisingly, even though the daily travels were longer than we thought, it didn't make us enjoy the trip any less. Maybe if we think about different places to stay and eat, it could make the experience better. We noticed that the quality and prices for tourists varied. Still, these small things didn't take away from the good memories of our journey.
- by AmyMorocco was fantastic, and the tour explored many intriguing areas. The daily travel was a bit lengthy, as mentioned in the initial itinerary, so we were prepared for it. However, I recommend reconsidering some of the accommodations and included meals, as we found ourselves paying tourist prices for varying quality at each stop.

It was a great journey. We booked a private tour and our driver was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
- by Kamran AghayevThis tour was recommended by a friend who had traveled with them before, and we are grateful we took advice. Abdellatif expertly tailored our journey, ensuring it surpassed our expectations. The car we traveled in was exceptionally comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed the company of our guide, Ismail. He was relaxed, well-mannered, and shared many enriching discussions and laughs with us throughout the trip. Ismail was always polite and patiently answered every question, no matter how it is, making us feel safe and well taken care of as three young women traveling together. We were mesmerized by the stunning beauty of the Atlas Mountains along our journey. Our stay at Dar Blues, a Moroccan-style Kasbah hotel in Dades valley, was a luxurious retreat. The service was exceptional and creatively personalized, ensuring every detail contributed to our experience. We relished a delicious dinner that added to the overall enjoyment of our stay. The desert experience on this trip surpassed others we had heard about. We stayed at a beautiful campsite, where six attentive staff members provided personalized care. The tents were elegantly furnished with amenities such as running hot water, ample blankets, towels, and toiletries. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted with traditional mint tea and nuts on our own private dune. The camp also offered complimentary sandboarding, adding excitement to our stay. A highlight was gathering around the campfire, listening to enchanting desert music under the starry sky. It was an unforgettable experience that enriched our journey through Morocco, leaving us with lasting memories and new friendships. I wholeheartedly recommend this trip to anyone seeking a memorable adventure in Morocco.

Wait until you get to Morocco to book this exact tour. This company through Tour Radar and other online bookers are just shell companies. They charge 3 times more than what the cost actually is. On top of that, they didn't give the tour company enough money to put me in a room with a bathroom during the desert safari. Shameful.
- by Jason PerezThis company is keeping more of the money than it's giving to the tour company. To add insult to injury, Tour Radar didn't give the operator Bamba enough money to at least put me in a suite with a bathroom on the desert overnight. Shameful. This tour operator charges three times the price of what you can get in Morocco. This same tour is $75 and you can buy when in Morocco at short notice too.

I gave this review 4 stars, but it's really a mixed review. Pros were: acceptable communication by the company and assistance for post-tour accommodation; the accommodations themselves, including at the Berber camp; our excellent driver on the 3-day leg, Rashid. Cons were: a non-English-speaking driver on the day trip to Essaouira (impossible to communicate or ask questions), and no stop at the Argan oil women's cooperative which was to be part of the itinerary (although Rashid did this for us on the 3-day leg); inability to contact the tour operator directly (the only communication channels were through TourRadar, although the website gave the impression that TR was merely the broker), some lack of confidence that we would have an English-speaking driver for the 3-day leg (Rashid told us he had been called only the night before). Rashid was the best driver we could have wished for -- knowledgeable, responsive, solicitous, excellent communicator, safe driver. The camel ride through a desert rainstorm was memorable!

This tour was incredible and such great value for money. Hassan our guide was amazing, so calm and told us everything we needed to know about the trip. The walks and food were top quality.
- by Katy SoweryA great itinerary covering different parts of Morocco- desert, mountains and Marrakech- in a week. Really enjoyed the variety of each day and the beautiful secenery. Won't be my last trip to Morocco! What was the most inspirational moment of your trip? The camel trek into the desert and sitting around the fire at the campsite was fantastic, as was watching the sun rise over the sand dunes the next morning (well worth getting up early for!).Enjoyed visiting the towns and villages in the Sahara which meant we could get a sense of the 'real' Morocco.The walks in the Atlas Mountains were a personal highlight as the scenery was beautiful. What did you think of your group leader? Rachid was an excellent guide- very knowledgable and accomodating. A few people on the trip were ill and he did a great job of looking after them. Do you have any advice for potential travellers? I think this is a great trip if you want to see different aspects of Morocco in a relatively short period of time.I travelled in the second week of November and the weather was great- warm and sunny in the day (but not too hot) and cool at night- take a jumper. The campsite in the desert is more luxurious than most of us expected - the tents are very roomy, with enough space to stand up in, and have matresses and blankets so you won't be cold. The camp even had proper toilets!The hotels were excellent quality- most of them had a pool and wi-fi.The food was good but not much variety- outside of Marrakech the menu is very limited and often just offered tagine, cous cous or omlette! And we drank a lot of mint tea!There was a bit more time spent on the bus than the trip notes suggest, but this is a necessary trade-off to cover such a large area in a week, and the scenery you see from the bus makes the trips enjoyable.Highly recommend visiting the Majorelle Gardens during the free time in Marrakech- they are beautiful and it's a relaxing way to spend ah hour or so. Is there anything else you would like to add? Brilliant trip- you won't regret it!
