What people are saying about Meknès-Tafilalet

It was cold , it was rainy , it was snowy but with gorgeous companions and extremely helpful guides we actually made a memorable trip which we will tease , cherish and keep in our hearts forever. Despite being in an unusual weather, we got to experience a different Sahara in different color thanks to my charming companions and especially thanks to the Guides Ali ( which is one of the kindest person I met), Hakim ( that guy is an absolute unit driving non stop ) and Hassan ( who was probably the most animated entertainer in the night we spent on Sahara) and Your Highness the monkey King who ate all the peanuts and kept all the younglings in check on our way to Ifran . Thank you again for all the wonderful memories. Dima Maghreib

It was one of the most awesome experiences of my life. Mohamed made e sure we were happy, safe and enjoy our tour to be the maximum. I very very much recommend this guide as the best I ever had 8n the many tours around the world we have taken. Morocco is a incredible county for it's diversity, beauty and friendly people. We loved our trip there and inshallah we'll be back soon.

We’ve thoroughly enjoyed our time days safari from Marrakech to Fes. Our drive Mohammad was fantastic. Very thoughtful, fun and entertaining. The camel ride was a highlight as was the over night camp. Well worth it and good value for money.

we really loved it. our driver was one of the most welcoming and caring ones and all the tour was perfectly organized! can't recommend it enough!

It's a value-for-money tour especially for your first visit to dessert in Morocco. Just all visitors are so punctual compared to the guide.
