What people are saying about Rissani, Morocco

Very good experience! We went with my husband and my 1-year-old daughter (nervous because we didn't know what would happen to her being so small, thinking that she would be cold or something) and nothing! It was amazing ! I took a porterage backpack so that I was safer on the camel and it was the best! We were the only ones in the camp, but they still set fires, played instruments and sang for us! All very friendly. The tent was very spacious and even had air conditioning (we couldn't find the remote control but we still didn't get cold). If you go to Merzouga totally recommended!

Beautiful hike. Travel by car to Merzouga very comfortable with a nice and attentive driver, who also speaks good English. Arrival at the tent by dromedary and return by car (requested by us). Very clean and well maintained tents. Congratulations to all the reception staff in the desert, who speak English, French and a little Italian.

we set off with the camels at 5:00 p.m. our guide was great. the camp is right next to the parking lot so not in the desert itself. unfortunately the food was nothing special... we ate much better on our trip. Unfortunately, sandboarding was not offered to us, although it was included in the price

We enjoy the activity the ride the tents the food, beside that there was olmost no water In the tant. I will recomend to other people. Thank you Yehuda cohen
