Nice day out in the dessert
It was a nice 7-hour tour. Our driver Hakim was great and took good care of us, he was a local, very informative and it was very interesting to exchange experiences with him. We visited the nomades’ tent for tea, however, the Berber family did not join us. Although we were hoping to get a chance to interact with them directly. We then visited the ruins of an old city and drove in the dessert with nice views, we then arrived to Rissani. In Risanni, we had a delicious Berber pizza for lunch, and then walked around Rissani for 1 hour. This was the only hour when the guide, Mubarak, joined us for the tour. Mubarak shared interesting information with us. However, he did not seem to be engaged while giving us the tour. This and his short presence (which was not clearly specified in the tour description) are the reasons for a lower rating of this tour. After Rissani Hakim brought us safely back to the camp, while sharing more nice experiences with us.

Amazing half day tour
Our guide Hachim was amazing, as was our driver. We enjoyed the Safari and tour of the Mezrougah area. We loved how Hachim shared his passion about southern Morocco and the traditions of his people.
