Desert Tour 1 Night from Agadir

We went out for two days with our guide Mohammed. It was fantastic. He really showed us Morocco. We passed several places in and around Agadir and went further south. The route, the towns and villages were breathtaking. What was especially nice is that at certain moments he dropped us off and gave us time to explore the location, in which he took appropriate distance and space. After the first day we arrived at the tent camp in the Sahara at the end of the afternoon, just before sunset. Everything was already ready for us, tea & cookies. Eventually we were brought up a high dune pan just before sunset and were able to enjoy the most beautiful sunset ever! Then night fell and they had prepared fresh tagines for us. After dinner, night fell slowly and the first stars came to the sky. We lay on blankets and pillows looking at the largest starry sky. Then slept wonderfully and there was breakfast ready for us. Then we left the tent camp and drove to different villages and were taken to all kinds of special places. This was really the highlight of our week in Agadir! Nothing but praise for our guide Mohammed. Even after the Sahar trip, he helped us find fun activities. I can recommend it to everyone. Greetings, Willem & Ellen.

The desert tour was an incredibly impressive and enriching experience for us. We were a small group of great people and our guide Mohamed informed us super at all times and has responded to every traveler very personally. The many stops of the trip were sensationally great and Mohamed even took us to other places that were on the route. The camp in the desert was the absolute highlight and the people we met there, extremely nice and friendly. The whole trip impressed us lastingly and we will definitely make a bigger tour through the desert in the near future, if possible again with our great guide Mohamed!!! Thank you for the great experience.

We were picked up at 8.30am. to be driven around areas and shown a lot of half built houses, no explanation or history as to why we were being shown these areas. We were driven to a fish restaurant, the menu was very basic and if you wanted to add chips to the fish it was extra. The grilled fish given to me was undercooked one side (the fish had been cut in half) and partially cooked the other side, I ate a bit and fed the rest to the cats hanging around. The fridge that the fish was displayed in was stacked high with fish and we watched more coming in and being added to this over loaded open fridge. I went down with food poisoning from eating the fish meal and the poisoning lasted 7 days. My friend and I worked it out that it was the only place where we ate different meals, the rest of the time we ate the same foods and my friend did not end up with food poisoning. We were then taken to a supermarket so that the driver could pick up supplies for the evening. Then we were taken to an area that contained camels of different ages, it was explained that the camels were there for a market the following day. We asked why the young camels were bleating and was informed that they were calling for their mums, this was really horrible to see the distress of the babies and something we really should not have been shown. We finally came to an area that contained some houses and was told it was a village, there were only a few houses of sorts, the driver and another lady who was with us gave out many sweets to the kids, our driver explained he took clothes and shoes along with food supplies to these people as they were very poor. Our driver put his car in a garage and we were squash into a 4 x 4 to take us to the camp. The camp contained a large tent area where we could sit, there was 9 white square tents to house us for the night. There was electricity and normal running toilets. We sat around for quite a long while not doing anything, Everyone apart from myself were taken up a hill to watch the sun setting, I couldn't go because I'm mobility impaired and wouldn't be able to walk up the hill. At 9.00pm the dinner was brought out, it was a Turin with 5 very small chicken wings (one each) and vegetables, it was too late in the evening for us to eat non of us ate much. Then we sat around again, we could not converse with the other people due to language barrier. I went to bed but I understand by my friend that the entertainment consisted the driver and 2 others to draw grooves in the sand and set it on fire. The mattresses were like rock and the cushions needed a crane to move them. There was very thick blankets. The following day we were served a Moroccan breakfast and our driver asked if we wanted to go straight back to the hotel or do some more driving around, we chose to return to the hotel after a camel ride. We was taken to an area where there were camels and a scarf was supplied to act as a turban, I do NOT recommend the ride, it was £10 and we was taken around a very small area, it took no longer than 3 minutes. Afterwards a guy was going around offering you to hold a scorpion. We arrived back at the hotel by early afternoon. I would have been better to have been picked up afternoon of the first day instead of driving around and around making the journey long and boring and very tiring. It seemed to be a way of stretching the experience so that more money could be charged. I DO NOT recommend this trip, its not really an experience as such. We were not even that far into the desert, about 2 minutes ride, it was more the very start of the desert rather than actually in it, there was still light pollution by the surrounding towns/villages, so stars could not be seen. It was an experience, but a very disappointing one and the driving around was very boring.

Such a good experience we got in desert stay! If you looking for something special so this is it - sunset, fire show, sleeping in the tent, drinking local tea with nice people from village, see different amazing spots of Morocco! Our drive MOHA RAMI told so many different things about Morocco culture, it was so interesting! Such a friendly person, very good communication. Play games with our son during trip! We glad we are booked this trip! If you want to see Morocco - this is a best tour to do! Thank you MoHA RAMI!

This was an AMAZING experience, one that we will never forget. Our driver Mohamed was extremely kind and informative, answering any and all questions we had! He let us have time to ourselves and was never intrusive. We felt this was a truly authentic experience and have made memories we will never forget. The other people we met in the dessert were just as kind. DO NOT MISS THIS EXPERIENCE. WORTH EVERY PENNY.

We had a really great time, we experienced and saw far more than we had imagined. A great way to get to know the country and people a little better. Our experience felt authentic and there were many local people involved who could benefit from our activity, the price is reasonable and the people we met were very warm and friendly

We had a great day, full of people, with Mohamed as guide and driver. My parents and I have different interests and physical conditions, and there was something for everyone. Culture, adventure, cuisine, landscapes... Great value for money! Thanks again. I will not hesitate to call on Mohamed again.
