An experience for which the long car journey is worth it. our guide Akil was super nice and really helpful. We stopped at all the stops on the tour but we also asked to visit Atlas Studios and even though we didn't have much time, Akil accommodated us. I take off one star because we suffered from the cold in the two nights. In the first one in Daddes the hot air didn't work but overall we had a good time with the owner, very kind. The night in the desert was a bit difficult, extremely uncomfortable beds and a bit dirty. Abrupt and unfriendly staff, tasteless and poor food, forced entertainment, without the soul to involve guests, it almost seemed to us that we were a "nuisance". We tried the quad experience, which seems to be included in the package (choice between camel or quad to go to the camp) but in reality they asked us for a supplement of 45€ per person!

3 days very interesting by the variety of landscapes, the quality of the welcome at the Bia Besta hotel, the originality of the welcome in Merzouga by 3° at night. Above all I must emphasize the importance of our driver Aquid, very good, attentive to our requests, for the success of our 3 days. Thanks again to him
