Don't miss it!

Great experience and well organized. Of course, you have to have a bit of adaptive spirit (all the hotels on the route don’t shine in order and cleanliness) but the vision of the desert compensates for the fatigue of the journey. Our driver, Jamel, is fantastic: always available, kind but also great as a driver! Overnight in the desert in a luxury tent, with private bathroom, is highly recommended. Be careful when you arrive at the Air Ben Haddou website, because the guides are dishonest and ask for the money of the entrance fee: you do not have to pay because the entrance is already included in the price of the trip! We informed the agency, which promptly refunded us.

Jamel will be very happy to read your kind words—his availability and professionalism are a great asset to us. Thank you also for highlighting the situation at the Ait Ben Haddou site. We apologize for the inconvenience and greatly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us better inform future travelers. We are glad we were able to promptly issue the refund. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again for another unforgettable experience.

Sunset Camel Ride

Our guide and the driver was very helpful, resourceful and enthusiastic. The drive through the Atlas Mountains was very scenic with amazing geography. The camel rides during sunset and sunrise were fun and unique experiences. The things that could be better: 1) The hotel we stayed the first night was not good with stained bed sheets. 2) Our hotel at the return was outside Marrakesh. The driver demanded $20 Euro extra as we got off without any prior notification and despite the fact that he dropped another couple 5 mins from our hotel. I did not appreciate that. I thought it was dishonest.

The trip was really Good, and the group was really friendly, otherwise we lost so much time in the way to the desert we had to do the camel excursión in the complete dark. About the guide and the driver, they were very friendly and paid attencion to all of our requests, however we feel like the iformation of the places we visited was a bit poor.

Amazing trip with Khalid

We went on a trip from Marakech to Fes and I cannot say enough about how amazing it was. It was made even better by the driver Khalid. He did everything to make us comfortable and happy. We stopped at some beautiful places for pictures plus coffee, snacks and he even had wifi! He was so friendly and all smiles. We stopped in a hotel near the gorges the first night which had really hot water and comfortable beds - the two most important things when traveling. Then we went to the Sahara where we rode camels and slept in a tent. The food there was great and there were plenty of blankets to stay warm. Then we head to Fez to our hotel. I work in travel and this was a great trip.
