The Tour was great, we had so much fun, the accommodations were great and everything was really well organised! I would definitely recommend this tour if you want to get a taste of the desert and don’t have too much time. The views of the Atlas during the drive was also amazing :) just bare in mind that there ist a camel ride included and even if I am sure that the camels are held under good conditions it may not be that nice for people who are sensitive in animal-related topics :) But you know this before the trip so if you decide to do it, the Trip is really 10/10!!
Mohamed was an awesome guide - super friendly and accommodating/helpful! The drive to/from the desert was long BUT there were a lot of stops and chances to stretch/pee. The desert camp was great - much comfier than anticipated. If I had any recommendations - the lunch stops could have more options. I understand that the set meals appeal to many however, I’d prefer to have different, cheaper choices.
