    · August 15th, 2023
    Our trip was an absolute delight, all thanks to our fantastic guide, Mohamed. He went beyond just guiding us, becoming a true friend and sharing his wealth of knowledge. The desert night was the pinnacle of our adventure. And don't miss the extra activities like quad biking, hiking, and hot air ballooning - they're a must! A huge shoutout to Touareg Trails for this unforgettable experience.

    Recently, my companions and I decided to embark on a 4-day excursion from Marrakech to Fes and it was an extraordinary experience! Our itinerary featured an array of activities including quad biking, camping, and a sunset camel ride safari. The quad biking was undoubtedly a standout moment for us, as we were able to explore the picturesque Moroccan terrain in a thrilling way. The guides were well-informed and took great care to ensure our safety throughout the entire adventure. We enthusiastically endorse this activity to anyone seeking an exhilarating escapade. Our camping experience was also remarkable. We spent the nights in traditional tents and relished the scrumptious meals provided by our hosts. The bonfire under the starry sky was particularly enchanting and we valued the opportunity to detach from our devices and fully immerse ourselves in the desert surroundings. Lastly, the sunset camel ride safari was a serene and ideal conclusion to our trip. The camels were friendly and well-trained and the panoramic view of the sun setting over the desert was truly breathtaking. It was a soothing and restful way to unwind after our adrenaline-packed few days. To sum up, our trip from Marrakech to Fes was an unforgettable experience. The guides were cordial and knowledgeable, the activities were diverse and thrilling, and the scenery was absolutely spectacular. We wholeheartedly recommend this journey to anyone seeking to discover the captivating beauty of Morocco's desert landscape.

    Excellent travel experience!! For our vacation in Morocco, my friends and I arranged a 3-day excursion with Touareg Trails, and I strongly recommend it! This includes activities such as 4wd biking, sandboarding, sunset viewing, camel riding, and stargazing... Our tour guide Said provided us with kind guidance and a pleasant ride. We learnt a lot about the nomads and had a great time in the desert. It was fantastic!

    My sister and I went on a 4 day excursion from Marrakech to Fes with Youseff. Our tour far exceeded our expectations. Youseff was an exceptional guide and shared so much about Moroccan culture. The accommodations and itinerary were all 5-star and as two women travelers we felt very safe throughout the trip. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience and I would recommend this tour to any travelers interested in learning about and enjoying this beautiful country! We will definitely be back, thank you for an amazing trip!

    I am not the kind of person who takes the time to write a review but in this case an exception is definitely necessary. Expectations were very much exceeded in every possible way. Our guide Mohammed was beyond amazing and can't express just how much I would recommend this tour/company/guide to anyone thinking of doing so. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable on all things local as well as Morocco in general and makes the seemingly longer drives go by in a flash. Worth every cent and then some.

    We really enjoyed our 3-day trip to the Atlas Mountains with an excellent guide, comfortable transport, very punctual and had many different activities at a reasonable price. The lunch in Berber family home in a village high in the mountains was fantastic, served on a terrace with superb mountain views(the vegetarian options is offered). I highly recommend, and will use them for a longer trip!

    It was a great way to get out of the city of Marrakech! We booked the company for our 3-day trip to the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara desert. The tour was perfect and well organized. We had a great and excellent tour guide who took us in a real and authentic experience, then we had a little of everything, short camel ride, breath-taking landscapes, meet friendly locals, hiking to the beautiful waterfalls, tried the delicious food and we ended the day on a quad biking fun adventure...! Really it was perfect for anyone with short visits but uncertain of what to do to experience it all. I highly recommended them!!

    For 8 adults, some of whom are over 6 feet tall, do you offer a 15 passenger van? Also, could you specify the type of accommodation you offer? As in, the desert camp, are the showers "normal" showers or bucket showers? Is Sandboarding included in this price?

    • TouaregTrailsOperatorWritten December 2023

      We can use a bigger van then, so that will have enough space for your group. We use Ksar Sultan in Dades or similar and the desert camp with private shower and toilet for each tent. Sandboarding is included in the tour. However the quad biking in the dunes and hot air balloon ride in Marrakech are not included, so we add that as optional activities.

    Asked on March 23rd, 2023

    We are 4 adults, aged 55, 65, 71 and 73. We are all able to hike and climb easily. How can we book the Marrakesh to Fes 3-day tour? Is it possible? Two of us are resident in France and two in the U.S.A. How can we book insurance for two different countries? Is it possible to upgrade accommodations on this trip? If so, where would I find the information?

    • TouaregTrailsOperatorWritten March 2023

      We recommend the 4 or 5 day trip from Marrakech to Fes if you prefer to include hiking and climbing on your desert adventure experience. The 3 day trip is more classic and has long drive each day, and doesn't include any hiking or climbing except the camel riding and the overnight in the desert camp. We can include 2 to 3 hours hiking, possible rock climbing, visit the locals and the nomads, spend the night in the desert camp, possible to have lunch or dinner with locals. We can book the upgraded accommodation for all these options and we can send you the names of the hotels or the links of the hotels after you book the tour.

      Jacqueline

      We don't have time for the longer trip. TourRadar said we had to get your approval to go if we are over 70. Is it OK?

    • TouaregTrailsOperatorWritten March 2023

      The hotels we are using for this trip are: Ksar Sultan Dades for the first night, Mirage Luxury Camp for the second night. These hotels are good and are included in the package. If you prefer upgraded ones we can send you a list of the hotels and camp we can use for the luxury option.
