About
The 3-day trip from Marrakech to the Sahara desert offers a camel ride and an overnight stay in the middle of the Sahara desert. The journey starts in Marrakech towards the southeast. We cross the high Atlas Mountains which offers beautiful views over the mountains. After the Tizi n'Tichka pass, we leave the main road and take a side road to the village of Telouet where we will visit an old kasbah. Later, we will continue our journey to the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, which has been a UNESCO site since 1985 and is also used as a shooting location for many famous movies. Here your guide will accompany you to visit the nearby Berber village. After lunch, we head to Ouarzazate to visit one of the cinema studios where you can see some sets used for popular movies like Kundun. On the second day, we travel to the Erg Chebbi desert to experience a camel ride before sunset and spend an amazing overnight stay in an elegant desert camp. In the desert, you can sleep under millions of bright stars.

- adityasP9781IF0 contributionsMasterful Itinerary from an Experienced Tour CompanyYoussef is an expert at the tour game, and his masterful itinerary for us to see 90% of Morocco in 9 days, was a testament to it. We gave him a budget and a number of days, and he gave us a fantastic experience, filled with adventure and leisure, that we won't forget. Our guide and driver, Zouhair, was extremely hospitable, accepting of our touristic demands, and fun, adding to the experience. They helped with booking hotels, travel to and from airports, intercity travel in a comfortable van, and our desert experiences.Written February 11, 2025
- Daydream183182216980 contributionsBest time in Morocco!!!We used Desert Morocco adventures to go to Casa Blanca, a desert tour to ride camels and dinner in the desert and a day trip into the Atlas Mountains! Our transportation was extremely comfortable and our drivers were excellent! The guides they used to give us our individual tours were very informative and attentive to the places we wanted to see. I highly recommend them if you are looking for experienced guides to show you the local areas in and around Marrakesh and Casa Blanca!Written January 5, 2025
- jadee4090 contributionsSahara Tour - Marrakech to FesWe did our trip with the guide Zouhair and we had a very good experience. He was very kind and at our disposal during our 3 days trip. We saw amazing scenarios. By luck, we could see both snow in the mountains and the strong sun in the dunes. In the camp, all the staff provided us a very good time, with good food, enjoining their culture, singing songs and learning how to play instruments. The tends were very well equipped and not as cold as we were expecting. Everything was clean and really beautiful. My only “point of attention” about this 3 days trip is that we spend a large amount of hours in the car.Written December 28, 2024
- L2056KNewelinam0 contributionsAmazing trip with Zouhair!Our five-day trip to Morocco with the girls was absolutely unforgettable, and we owe a huge thank you to our guide, Zouhair. He was the epitome of professionalism—always on time, polite, and respectful. His English is fantastic, making communication effortless, and he’s a brilliant driver, ensuring we felt safe and comfortable at all times. We can recommend him enough to anyone looking for a great guide!Written November 25, 2024
- dominikapL8855FJ0 contributionsExcellent expierenceThe 4-day trip to the desert was wonderful and worth recommending. We had an incredible trip through Morocco with the girls, and we’d like to give a special shoutout to our driver Zouhair who was also an excellent guide. He was extremely professional, always on time, and carried himself with great respect and politeness. His English is excellent, and he’s a fantastic driver, which made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable guide in Morocco! Everything about the trip was exceptional, and Zoohair was simply amazing. Also there was no problem with adapting the itinerary to suit us, which was great. We recommend taking an extra trip on quads to explore the high dunes for those who want to spend some time more on the middle of the desert. It’s an unforgettable experience.Written November 24, 2024
- 34566ankita130 contributionsAmazing, very offbeat experience! ❤️Had an absolutely fantastic experience with Youssef. He organised an amazing tour for us through some lesser known parts of Morocco that we wouldn’t have known about otherwise. We swam in random pools in the desert, slept under the stars and drank so much Moroccan tea!! He also took us to local eateries that had great food and clean toilets. He is kind, helpful and funny.Written July 19, 2024
- Explore_with_vids0 contributionsBest guide in MoroccoIf you’re coming to Morocco, go with them!! Youssef is an amazing guide!! We had so much fun during the trip. The weather was not in our favour, but Yourseff took care of it. We even modified the trip during the last minute and everything was handled smoothly. We also booked the tour for the best price possible. Got luxury in the price of budget.Written July 17, 2024
- Lanny K0 contributionsAmazing road trip though MoroccoJust had an amazing road trip through Morocco with 5 girlfriends. When my 5 girlfriends asked me to plan a Morocco trip, I took them road tripping through Morocco for 12 days visiting Casablanca, Rabat, Chefchaouen, Volubilis, Meknes, Fes, Sahara desert, Merzouga, Todra Gorge, Ouarzazate, Souarzazat, Essaouira, and Marrakech. Yes a LOT of driving but it was worth it. This trip couldn’t be more amazing without the help from Desert Morocco Adventure who helped with all the planning and took us from one place to another. All riads that we stayed were all beautiful. My favorite places are Chefchaouen (the Blue city) and Essaouira (one of the coastal towns). Checked off my bucket list to do glamping in Sahara desert. Highly recommend!!!Written June 4, 2024
- JasminRoth0 contributionsAmazing experience!😊We had an amazing 4 day trip with Hassan. He was always very welcoming, friendly, open-minded and asked us a lot about our wishes. We would definitely recommend Youssef and Hassan for another trip and we will come back for sure. The hotels we had along the road where absolutely nice and the car comfortable and luxuriously. We can‘t wait to be back, thanks again for everything!Written February 24, 2024
- lilianeg4670 contributionsAmazing day!Youssef, the driver, was so sweet, nice and professional! He always made sure that we are okay, told us what to avoid during the activities and answered all our questions about Morroco! You'll see beautiful landscape all along the road! The Ouzoud Walterfall is amazing! At the beginning of the trail, many Morrocan suggest to take them as guides to get you to the waterfall, but it's not necessary. I recommend that you follow the trail on Google Map because the path is poorly marked and it's easy to lose your way. Also, if you want to eat there, I suggest to go a little farther upstairs, the price is cheaper and you won't have a view on the waterfall, but the view is still pretty! After the waterfall, we too the road for another Morroco's natural wonder the natural bridge Imi Nifri. Again, some Morrocan suggest to take them as guides, but it's not necessary as the trail is easy to follow. I highly recommend this day trip for all nature seeker!Written February 11, 2024
- shaunprevin880 contributionsGreat customizable private 10D/9N tour of Morocco with Zohir and Desert Morocco AdventureIf you're looking for a private tour that can be customised to your preferences, that will cover the highlights of Morroco or the cities of your choice, Desert Morocco Adventure is the company for you. Zohir, who was with us for the whole 10-day tour, was trustworthy, reliable, personable, and fun. We felt at ease with him and he made the long journeys better. Everything was seamless with him and he did all he could to minimise hiccups. It is evident he enjoys what he does and loves his country, which made the tour with him more enjoyable. Covered Marrakesh, Dades, Merzouga, Fes, Chefchaoen and Casablanca during the trip and logistics were very smooth with an extremely comfortable vehicle. Also thank you to Moha who helped organize the tour in the preceding months. Recommended and would happily contact them again if we return to Morocco.Written January 6, 2024
- picom2430 contributionsThe best day trip from Marrakech with the most amazing tour guides!We had a wonderful day in the Atlas mountains with Zouhair and Moha. They were super knowledgeable but very relaxed and fun. We couldn’t have asked for better company to get a way from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech and spend an amazing day in the calm of the mountains. They were super professional and accommodated all our needs. They were always asking if we wanted to stop to take pictures and we felt we could really pace the trip to our liking. We got to see different Berber villages, learned a lot about the history of the region, and met local families that welcomed us into their homes and gave us a taste of amazing local produces. Lunch was super tasty and was served with an idyllic view. At the end we got a small tour of the family house where the food was prepared and listened to some of their stories. The highlight for us was that it really felt like we were contributing to local businesses and to this wonderful people. Overall it was an amazing experience that we definitely recommend if you’re ever in Marrakech. We’ll sure be booking a similar experience with Desert Morocco Adventure next time we are in this amazing country.Written December 11, 2023
- erierick0 contributions4 days private tour from Marrakech to FezWe took 4 days private tour from Marrakech to Fez through Merzouga, its been amazing and fun experience, our guide Youssef is very friendly and took nice video and pictures for us, he is very passionate about the job, he also very nice to our kid and play with him. All the accommodations and food were perfect, highly recommended tour. Thanks for beautiful memoriesWritten December 10, 2023
- j0evelb0 contributionsThe Best Moroccan Road Trip Adventure!This was an unforgettable experience and our best experience so far with Desert Morocco Adventure. We are well travelled, have good standards and rarely provide trip reviews. But this was an exception. We were impressed and very happy with our private tour and having the company of an amazing tour guide /“unofficial”photographer which is Icho ( Youssef ). Icho spoke good English and he was brilliant, super friendly , incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his beautiful country, Morocco and his Berber roots. He gave us a fantastic 4 days road trip in Morocco. We learnt about history, culiure and much more. His tour company is highly recommended. This desert moroccan adventure tour is definitely time and money well invested. Many thanks Icho for being such a great tour guide!! We already miss you! We hope to see you again Insha Allah.Written September 28, 2023
- Jrol20280 contributionsAmazing 4 days Private Tour from Marrakech - Sahara Desert- Fez- ChefchaouenWe spent a week in Morrocco and booked a 4 days private guided tour and trip from Marrakech- Sahara Desert- Fes- Chefchaoen and back to Marrakech via Desert Morocco Adventure. It was the best decision made! We were so glad to have Youssef also known as Icho whom I discovered by watching You Tube vloggers and recommended his private tour. Morrocco is indeed a beautiful country with friendly people. But what made this tour and 4 days guided trip memorable is having Icho ( Youssef ) as our guide. Icho was such a fantastic and amazing guide. His knowledge and passion for the area and places we visited was so evident , and we so appreciated his insights and stories about landmarks and history of the area. Thank you so much Icho ( pronounce like “is-sho” ) for your time, effort and enthusiasm in guiding us through this incredible tour! Both me and my husband as well as our friend who came with us, we felt that we also gained a brother and a friend!!! Icho was also very thoughtful and would provide bottled water for us which is so sweet of him. Despite the long drive and journey he remains professional and a great company with all his funny jokes too. Highly recommend him and his company for any trips around Morrocco. Many thanks again Icho for this amazing journey.Written September 25, 2023

We just got back from an amazing three-day tour in Morocco, and I can't recommend it enough! We’re a family of four with two teenage boys, and our guide, Hassan, made the trip unforgettable. He’s not just a fantastic person to hang out with; he’s also an incredible driver and has a deep knowledge of Moroccan and Berber culture.
One of the highlights was spending a night in the Sahara Desert at a luxury camp. The food was absolutely superb! In the evening, we enjoyed a music show, and Hassan even joined in, showcasing his impressive drumming skills.
If you’re considering a trip, I highly recommend this agency and the fantastic team they have. Hassan's knowledge and passion for the culture truly enhanced our experience!

Just got back from the most epic three days for the new eve in the Sahara with Desert Morocco Adventure!!
Picture this: cozy Berber-style tents right in dunes. Luxury meets the great outdoors. I'm talking about waking up to the sunrise over Merzouga dunes and dozing off under a blanket of stars. It's like camping, but with a touch of glam.
The camel trek was a highlight! Riding these chill desert ships through the dunes during sunset was magical! And speaking of taste, the food was on point. Tagines, couscous, they fed us like royalty.
Soo if you're even thinking about a Sahara adventure, hit up Desert Morocco Adventure. The guy doesn't just show you the desert, they make you feel it. It's like a wild ride with friends who know how to turn a trip into a story 🐪✨

we went for the 3 day tour from marrakech to fes via the erg chebi desert. We went brought on a private tour by our wonderful tour guide, Yunes. He was very helpful and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The night in the desert camp was out of this world and would highly recommend that you opt for the luxury option. Overall an amazing experience

We spent 4 fantastic days in the Sahara accompanied by Hassan, among ancestral landscapes and wonderful people. It is a very strong experience that will surely remain in our hearts. Hassan was the perfect guide, he introduced us to the world of the desert and its traditions with great sensitivity and kindness, we were impressed by his competence, knowledge of Berber, Arabic and Western languages, he is a very cautious and experienced driver but for us he was a traveling companion. We recommend everyone the agency in Moha, they are reliable people and very strict in their work. A special thanks to the boys of the Camp in the desert, who did everything to make us feel at ease. Two tips: if you can, add a day to the tour of three because it is worth it and consider that in the desert at night it is very cold. Just bring the appropriate clothing. Many thanks again to Moha and Hassan.

Great service, our tour guide Icho helped us change our bookings last minute because of flight delays without any issues, he delivered an excellent service and provided us with stories and information about Morocco, about the culture, and was flexible with our schedule and plans. The places we stayed at were clean, of great value for the price and the trip overall offers an immersion in the desert berber culture that has to be experienced. Also Icho was able to accommodate our request to not have a camel ride and go by car through the dunes, as not having animals involved was essential for us

Loved every second of the trip!
Our guide was Icho and we truly could not have had a better guide. He was super flexible, accommodated all our requests (for example, we preferred not ridding any camels), his explanations were excellent and made us feel super comfortable and well taken care of.
On top of that, we stayed at beautiful hotels - our favorite was the one in Erg Chebbi, where we spend hours outside admiring the night sky. 1
0/10 would recommend.

Our trip to the Moroccan desert was incredible! Rachid, our guide, was super nice. He knew all the best places and told us fascinating stories about the history of the desert. From camel rides to starry nights in traditional tents, every moment seemed unreal. I highly recommend this experience to those looking for adventure and cultural immersion!

It was such a cool experience to go on this 3 days trip from Marrakech to Sahara desert making stops in the most beautiful places for observing sights, taking pictures and having lunch.
Driver is very nice, he knows the road perfectly so you feel safe and also car is comfy for long trips.
Positive guide and all people we met on the way made me feel like I travel in a company of good friends.
Thank you again and hope to be back!!
