We loved the activity… and made some amazing memories! Our guide Hamid was the best and we loved speaking to him! The night vibes were a lot of fun… we spent a good time singing the night away! The tents were a little small and my first reaction was I can’t sleep here but as the night went on the weather was chilly and everything fell in place. It’s a must visit!!

The tour was great! Our guide Mohamed was excellent answering all our questions and let us spent the night looking at stars. The food was delicious and plentiful. Singing and playing drums with Berber were emotional. We spent some quality time and we can say out loud. We will definitely do it again.

This experience exceeded what we thought! Lovely guides, we did camel trekking, watched the sunset! The tents had air conditioning and we never got cold, the food was delicious! We spent NY there and we think this was the best way to do it and best experience in Morocoo! Thank you everyone for this!!
