We were a group of six friends looking for an adventure, and this 3-Day Marrakech to Merzouga Desert Tour exceeded all our expectations! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. Our driver, Youssef, was amazing—he kept us entertained with stories about Moroccan history and made sure we had plenty of photo stops along the way.
The Sahara Desert was the highlight of the trip. Riding camels into the dunes at sunset was surreal, and the luxury desert camp was beyond anything we imagined. The tents were spacious and comfortable, and the staff treated us like royalty. We spent the evening laughing, stargazing, and dancing to Berber music around the campfire—it felt like something out of a movie!
We also loved the cultural stops, especially Ait Benhaddou and Todra Gorge. The landscapes were breathtaking, and Youssef made sure we had enough time to explore without feeling rushed. The stop at Rissani’s market was a fun addition, and we picked up some unique souvenirs.
This tour was the perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and culture. If you’re traveling with friends, this is the ultimate way to experience Morocco. We’re already planning our next trip back!
My husband and I just returned from the 3-Day Marrakech to Merzouga Desert Tour, and it was absolutely incredible! From the moment we were picked up in Marrakech, everything was seamless. Our driver, Ahmed, was not only an expert navigator but also a fantastic guide, sharing fascinating stories about the Atlas Mountains, Ait Benhaddou, and Berber culture.
The highlight of the trip was definitely the Sahara Desert. Riding camels at sunset into the Erg Chebbi dunes felt like a dream, and spending the night in a luxury desert camp was magical. The tents were cozy and beautifully decorated, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Dinner under the stars, followed by live Berber music around the campfire, was an experience we’ll never forget.
The itinerary was perfectly balanced—scenic drives, cultural stops, and plenty of time to relax. We loved exploring Todra Gorge and Rissani’s bustling market, and the stop at Atlas Film Studios in Ouarzazate was a fun surprise.
If you’re considering this tour, don’t hesitate—it’s worth every penny. We came home with not just photos, but memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for an amazing adventure!
This well-organized, spectacular 3-day journey from Marrakesh to Merzouga was unforgettable! Lahcen was wonderful as our guide for myself and my two children, ages 17 and 21. He was incredibly informative and professional, making the entire trip enjoyable. Although there’s quite a bit of driving required to see everything in such a short timeframe, it was absolutely worth it. We felt safe throughout, thanks to Lahcen’s skilled driving. The dunes and camel riding were the standout highlights of our trip. We can’t wait to return and explore more of Morocco—hopefully soon!
What a fantastic way to explore a vast area of Morocco with a private driver/guide. Hassan, our guide, was outstanding. He spoke quite good English and was very accommodating to our eclectic requests. «Can we stop and go in that marketplace? Of course!» «Can we visit that nomad family on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere? Of course!» The journey through the Atlas Mountains was both stunning and fascinating, offering views of Berber villages and ancient Kasbahs. A major highlight was the camel ride (around an hour with stops) to our Tent Camp in the desert. At night, the stars were incredible to behold while lying on a dune. Our tent was quite comfortable, complete with an in-tent shower and toilet. The food was tasty as well. The only drawback was that the tent became very warm at night, lacking any airflow or fan. In hindsight, we regret not upgrading to the luxury air-conditioned tent, which would have made our stay even more comfortable. There were many beautiful stops throughout the trip. The drive back on the last day was long (9 hours), but overall, I highly recommend this experience.
We opted for a private tour for our group of 4, and we had a great time. The long hours in the car were made much more comfortable by having the minivan exclusively for us. Our driver, Abdel, was not only cautious on the road but also exceptionally kind to us (thank you, Adbel!). The tour itself was quite enjoyable, with the desert arrival being a highlight. The camp accommodation was also excellent. Despite a misunderstanding, Marrakech Desert Trips handled it remarkably well. Their assistance is top-notch, so you can trust them without any concerns.
