Absolutely incredible experience, I can’t recommend people to do this tour enough! Mohammed our driver was amazing, he was very friendly and you really felt he genuinely cared and was looking after you and made you feel very at ease. The dunes are a bucket list experience for sure, we got to go on camels for sunset and sunrise, and we got to sandboard down the dunes too! I think one of the best parts of the trip was some of the stops along the way we’re unexpectedly amazing we really weren’t expecting the scenery to be quite as impressive as it was (our first time in Morocco), really loved the tour through the agricultural ‘oasis’ (as it looks like) through to the todra gorge and seeing Ait Ben hadou & driving through the Atlas Mountains! Highly highly recommend and for the price you really will struggle to find anything as good for value anywhere in the world!

Spending a night in the Sahara was even more magical than I imagined. The tour was really well organised with lots of excursions on days one and two, lots of rest stops to break up the driving and the accommodation was first class. I was travelling on my own so shared with another solo traveller. Our guide was Laarrbi who was clearly a pro. Only things to be aware of is that the listing said that lunch was included but the ticket said these weren't included - which turned out to be true. Also the communication before the trip started about what to bring and where to meet wasn't great which made me worried that the tour wasn't going ahead. I would thoroughly recommend to others - the long journey to the desert is totally worthwhile and I couldn't think of a better company to do it with.

This trip is a horrorshow. The first day we where supposed to VISIT the Atlas Mountains. In fact we just drove trough it in a mini-van brewing with Spanisch tourists in shots with a big camera around their neck (no offence) The website said all the enterence tickets where included, but thats not true. It was awful. We only got to go of the mini-van to take a picture and we where charged for everything. Somehow the other people on the mini-van didn’t seem to mind. I askt the chauffeur (he was great by the way, no complaints there) to drop me off at the first taxi back. I wouldn’t want be stuck in the dessert with these plebeians if I were payed to do it.
