Reviews about our 4-Day Desert Tour Fes to Marrakech

Fes to Marrakech in 4 days

My husband and I just completed our four-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech. We spent one night in the Dades Gorge and two nights in the desert. Everything was perfectly organized.

Our highlight was hiking in the Dades Gorge to visit a Nomadic family living in a cave. There weren’t any other tourists in sight, and it was really quiet and genuine! If you want hassle-free, well-planned trips that you won’t soon forget, I suggest making reservations with this firm.

You will be spending a lot of time in the car, so plan accordingly. We comfortably sat in the 4×4, which had plenty of room for 4 suitcases.

Four days/3 nights from Fes to Marrakesh with the fabulous driver & guide Ahmed

We traveled from Fez via Merzouga to Marrakesh in a private 4×4 because we thought it was the best option to go at our pace. I can now state that, contrary to what several other travel firms had suggested, it was the best choice for us to not share the van with other passengers.

We couldn’t be happier with how our trip turned out. An amazing experience were the camel ride and sunset in the middle of the dunes, the starry sky in the desert, tea with nomads, discovering oasis, seeing traditional Berber carpet workshops, and traveling across the Tizi n’Tichka pass in the High Atlas Mountains.

Everything about the sceneries was fantastic.
The warmth and friendliness of the individuals during our stop.
We have spent the night at several great restaurants with outstanding meals and breakfasts.
All services were beyond our expectations!

Ahmed, our driver and guide, was a major factor in the wonderful and unusual experience we had in Morocco. Our wonderful driver, who attended to all of our needs and answered all of our inquiries, took us on a lovely tour. We were able to experience Morocco through the eyes of the locals when we traveled with Ahmed. We came home wiser and more accepting.

We spent four fantastic days traveling around like old friends at Ahmed’s company.

As a result, we will enthusiastically suggest this trip to our loved ones. Discovering authentic Morocco in the company of Ahmed will be a vital part of making it unforgettable.

Amazing 4-Day Tour Desert Fes to Marrakech!

My boyfriend and I booked a four-day tour from Fes to Marrakech with Morocco Day Tour. I made the reservation via email with Mohamed, who assisted me with the PayPal deposit payment (which I required assistance with) and answered my questions promptly.

Mohamed, our driver and tour guide, was excellent! After dropping us off at our riad in Fes, we spent the next four days with him. He gave us a tour of the places we were going and stopped frequently so we could snap pictures.

He even got cherries for us to munch on and ensured they were well-cleaned with bottled water. Even though Mohamed was fasting on the first day of Ramadan, which was the second day of our tour, he was an excellent tour guide. He maintained a constant smile on his face and never got upset. Both the motels and the desert camping we stayed at were fantastic.

Looking back, the one thing we would have done differently would have been to do the 3-day trip instead of the 4-day tour. The extra day of activities consisted of seeing many gorges and was less thrilling than the previous days. The four-day tour wasn’t hurried, though.
