• 4Tips for a Good Experience

  Let me start by saying I would encourage others to do this trip. That said, I felt we could have used more information as to how the trip would be handled. The trip in the van was very long, with one major stop to tour an area and have a lunch, which really was not "optional" as we were all taken to the restaurant and seated. We had packed a lunch, but we could not retrieve it, so ate with the others. Near sunset, we were dropped off in a field where there were camels. We assumed our driver would go on to the camp site, but instead we had to take our bags with us. Two women had suitcases, which was very awkward for them. The ride to the camp on camels took about an hour. The camp itself was fine and the staff were great. We had expected the camp to be relatively primitive, so that was not a surprise. It was fascinating to talk to the staff about their love of the Sahara. The sky at night was amazing. So I encourage you to go, just be prepared.

• 4Unforgettable Night in the Desert

  The tour was great overall – truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A few things to keep in mind: the journey takes many more hours than the actual time spent in the desert. The groups are small, which is a big plus. I went in August and, surprisingly, it wasn’t too hot during the day. The car had air conditioning, but inside the tents at night it was quite warm, so some people chose to sleep outside on carpets. The camels are very well taken care of, and the ride itself was enjoyable. On the way, the bus stops several times for bathroom breaks and twice for meals: once on the first day heading to the desert, and again on the way back. The food at both restaurants was really delicious and the portions were generous – just a little more expensive compared to Marrakech, but that’s all (around €15 plus drinks at the first one, and €13 including drinks at the second). There’s also a visit to a Berber village, which costs €4 extra, while in most other tours I noticed it’s usually around €2. Still, the tour was really good and definitely worth it. Overall, a memorable and well-organized experience.

  SCAM FRAUD Do not book this tour. The tour did not take place, we waited for the pick-up in vain. This is fraud, scam.

• 2Dissatisfaction

  It's so sadly set to be just another tourist trap. The idea for the trip is so nice as a night in a desert in berber's tent with dinner and sightseeings on the way....but in fact you are forced to eat in overpriced restaurant where they rush and don't even cook well, you are given a dinner as chicken tajine even if specified and double confirmed for vegetarian meals and you ride the camel in total for less then an hour. The camp was alright, it was actually more comfortable then we expected, but the long drive with expensive lunched without a choice and the hustle is not worth the short camel ride and the little desert. To be fair with the review, our driver was a cool man you explained the route and stops and was speaking english as well as our guides in the cities and the camp. So this trip is only good for people who want to kill the time on holidays and doesn't need to eat well on the way, then it worth to book...and highly recommend to take a walk around the camp in night and try to find a spot without light polution to enjoy the night sky. (take a compass to get back right, as there are more camps next to each other).

• 5Amazing trip, so worth doing,

  This trip was amazing. Crossing the Atlas mountains is so stunning, it is cold in the desert at night in feb ,so dress appropriately, The bus driver didn't say much at the beginning, he became more chatty over the days, and the stops are timed well, they r at location for mostly tourist , the food was òk , bring snacks as portions arent huge. the guides that meet us at the historical sites were excellent,

About Marrakech

At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.
