Ismail is the best guide in Marrakech. Top. Great experience. Nothing to say everything ok as agreed 100% guaranteed visits.
Grazie mille per la bellissima recensione! Siamo davvero felici di sapere che l’esperienza a Marrakech vi sia piaciuta così tanto. Le vostre parole su Ismail e sull’organizzazione ci rendono molto orgogliosi. È stato un piacere accompagnarvi e speriamo di rivedervi presto per nuove avventure in Marocco! 🇲🇦✨
We had the Eurika tour and everything was perfect! We were picked up at the hotel and back at the hotel by the transfer. Really kind staff! Recommend!
Dear Sam, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy that you enjoyed the Ourika tour and felt well taken care of from pickup to drop-off. Our team always tries to give guests the warmest experience, and your kind words mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you again soon for another adventure with Dune Trek Tours!
Two trips done via DTT. One to the desert (Afagay) and one to the Ourika valley/Atlas mountains. Desert: transportation was well arranged and the location for dinner was very nice. The ride on the camel/dromedary was really a bit of a standard tourist ride so I would only do if you have never done anything like this before. Ourika valley: again the transport was very well arranged. Everyone did their best, but as we were warned was very touristy. Glad we saw it and did it. Next time I might have it arranged differently so we have more personal freedom over the content of the trip.
Hartelijk dank voor uw uitgebreide en eerlijke feedback, en voor het kiezen van Dune Trek Tours voor beide uitstappen. We zijn heel blij om te horen dat het vervoer goed geregeld was en dat u genoten heeft van de locaties die we voor u hebben uitgekozen. Wat betreft de kameelrit en de Ourika-ervaring: u heeft helemaal gelijk dat deze plekken soms toeristisch kunnen zijn, en we waarderen het enorm dat u dit zo duidelijk benoemt. We proberen altijd onze klanten vooraf zo goed mogelijk te informeren, zodat ze weten wat ze kunnen verwachten. Toch zijn we blij dat u het mooi vond om het eens gezien en meegemaakt te hebben. Voor een volgende keer kunnen we altijd samen kijken naar meer persoonlijke en minder toeristische opties, volledig op maat gemaakt, zodat u meer vrijheid heeft over de inhoud van de trip. Wij staan altijd klaar om dit met plezier voor u te regelen. Nogmaals bedankt voor uw vertrouwen en voor het delen van uw ervaring. U bent altijd van harte welkom bij ons! Met vriendelijke groet, Team Dune Trek Tours
Cannot say enough about the kindness and support of Ishmael. He paved the way for our entire 3 day experience in Marrakech. Help with phone service, restaurants reservations and day trips. He is a gem
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are truly happy to hear that your 3-day experience in Marrakech was memorable. It was our pleasure to assist you with everything from reservations to day trips, and we’re grateful for your kind words about Ismail. Your satisfaction means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back again soon for more beautiful adventures with Dune Trek Tours.
