Desert - This was the highlight of our trip to Morocco. We met an awesome group of people from different countries and just felt safe the entire time. Ait- Benhadou was very cool to experience and the lunch was SO good. Then riding camels into the desert, watching the stars and playing music with the local guides was like something out of a storybook. This was a bucket list adventure and I will be thinking about it for many years.

Memorable trip to the Sahara - We very perfectly contend with this trip! The drive felt safe and the truck was well-climatised and comfortable. On the way to the desert there are many stops: guided tours or just photo opportunities, and enough toilet breaks. The visits in Ait Ben Haddou and Tinghir are very intersting and the guides very very nice and answered all our questions about berber life. The hotel for the first night is okay, though dinner was complicated for the vegetarians. When arrived in the Sahara we were blown away: the camel ride and sunset in the desert are amazing!! The night is spent in suprisingly warm and comfortable tents and dinner was great, with music by the bonfire afterwards. Would definitely recommend, it's worth it!!

Really poor arrangement and they forced to review good - The whole trip is in the mini van except the two nights. The web page shows there is a lot place to visit but the reality is to stop at the place and take a photo. The tent is really poor and cannot stop wind. Most people got sick after the night in the dessert. Really cold and tired after this 3day trip. Also they forced us to have meals at the restaurant they corporate with and we must sit together to be controlled. The agency also arranged us to hike a mountain to go to a meaningless place for buying carpets. It wasted us 4 hours and was freezing. Really bad arrangement. At the last day, the driver forced us to leave the good review under his eyes and I understand why this activity has many good reviews. I told him I had no battery and in that case I can leave a real review now.
