We planned a customized 8 day/7 night itinerary starting at Marrakech and traveling to Essaouira, High Atlas mountains, Ourazzate, Merzouga, Meknes, and then finally to Casablanca from where we took... read more our return flight. Mohammed, our contact person from Desert Day Tours was one of the most helpful and responsive travel agents I have come across (and I have traveled to many parts of the world, including several countries in Africa). We kept exchanging emails until we firmed up the exact itinerary. He gave us a price and gave us a choice of Riads (hotels) for the various cities. We checked them out and gave him our choice. He charged us a deposit of 200 Euros, which we paid using Paypal. When I told him that I was hesitant to carry too much cash on me and prefer paying by Paypal or card, he suggested that he would arrange for a mobile credit card processing box and we would be able to pay towards the end of our trip.

Now to the trip. Everything was arranged exactly as promised by Mohammed. As soon as we landed in Marrakech our driver (Ali) and a local tour guide (Mustafa) were there to receive us. They took us to our hotel and our local guide was very polite, fluent in English, and very knowledgeable. He took us on a local walking tour on Day 2 which we loved. From Day 3 through the end of our trip in Casablanca, our driver Ali drove us from city to city, place to place, explaining various things. At Ait-Ben-Haddou they even had a local English speaking guide (wearing a Boston Red Sox t-shirt ha ha) who was fantastic as well. Ali was a very safe driver and made us feel safe throughout the long trip where we must have covered about 1100 miles. We traveled in a nicely equipped Toyota LandCruiser Prado 4x4 which was very nice. All the hotels and the luxury desert camp in the Sahara were awesome.

All in all, we loved Morocco, especially the variety of scenery from the ocean to the mountainous areas of the High Atlas and its snow covered peaks to the Sahara sand dunes. The cultural experience was also overwhelming.

I would recommend anyone traveling to Morocco and interested in organizing a safe and reliable customized private tour to go with Desert Day Tours.

  The Merzouga dessert tour was amazing and worth the time and money! It was also my boyfriend’s birthday while we were in the desert and they organised for a cake... read more which was such a surprise and a wonderful gesture. Made the night even more special with the fire and music

We planned our booking a month in advance, but since arriving in Morocco with the curfew etc, we decided to cut our trip short. When we did this we were refunded the deposit immediately which the possibility of it I think is quite comforting to know. When we couldn’t change our flights, We booked our tour the day before we were supposed to leave and the owner Mohammed was very accomodating. Take into consideration when In the year you go as we went in august and this is one of the hottest months so there is less tours due to this.

The first day started with a pickup from Fes and a day drive to Merzouga with many stops in between. Besides the common stops on the road to Merzouga the driver (Mohamed) also stopped wherever we wanted for pictures or for example for a toilet stop. Mohamed speaks good English and can tell you about the history of areas on the road but can also tell you about Moroccan traditions and language in general, feel free to ask whatever you want to know about the country! Our driver was also quite funny but I guess that depends on your sense of humour ;).

All stays during the trip were comfortable and were on excellent, clean and convenient locations.
We ourselves also investigated driving on our own but that is honestly not really worth it taking in consideration that you don’t get extra information about the area and culture, there are off-road roads your rent car can probably not drive to reach some panoramic views and that it is very hard to finish all stops within 2 days. Besides this with a driver the whole trip is hassle free which is a welcoming piece of mind during your trip throughout Marocco. While driving there were many police stops and speed checks that we would not have know driving ourselves. Overall the costs may have been the slightest amount extra if you paid as a local, but as a tourist if you tried to plan the whole trip yourself, you definitely would pay the same amount as the tour is prices. So pricing wise, I’d say we were satisfied paying 325 per person.

Concluding, the excellent service, planning and price of the tour is worth your time and shouldn’t be forgotten within your stay in Marocco.

  We had a great experience with Desert Day Tours! Our driver was M'barek, he was a very good driver and we felt really safe during the whole tour! The car... read more was in perfect condition, really clean and comfortable. The night at Dihya Desert Camp was magical! We would totally recommend this experience! …

  Desert Day Tours and Mohammed were incredible and the highlight of our trip to Morocco.

We did the 3 day tour from Fes to Marrakech and couldn’t have... read more asked for a better experience.

Leading up to the trip we were in regular contact with Desert Day Tours with questions and always received a timely response, and then the day before finalized our pick up details from our Riad in Fes.

On the First day we traveled from Fes to Merzouga and had a delicious BBQ lunch after a stop seeing the Barbary macaques in the Atlas Mountains. Next we traveled through the Ziz Valley seeing the palm tree valley, which had just experienced a wildfire days before and the ground was still smoldering. Next we traveled down to Merzouga and got on a camel to ride for the last 40 minutes of the trip through the Sahara during sunset to our overnight campsite which had electricity, wifi, running water and even our bags set up in the room for us.

In the morning after a night of food, tea, and Berber drumming and singing we left for a market in Meknes. When they say they want the tour to be as authentically Moroccan as possible, they mean it. On our way to the market Mohammed took us to visit and have tea and food with one of his friends who was getting married. After that we stopped and took a walk on the base Todra Gorge seeing the beautiful walls and the natural spring and then went to the hotel in the Dedas Valley and had a delicious 4 course dinner.

The last day started with a drive to Ouarzazate where we toured the Hollywood of Morocco and went and had lunch overlooking the Ben Haddou Kasbah. We then continued our drive to Marrakech over the High Atlas Mountains, where we were dropped off a few hundred feet from our riad!

Mohammed made us feel comfortable and welcome as soon as he picked us up, and as soon as we finished we wished we had more time with him touring around the beautiful views of Morocco.

Thank you so much Desert Day Tours and Mohammed, we will be back for another tour soon!

  We did this tour for 2 nights and 3 days coming from Fes. We were able to tailor the tour and go at our own pace. Yassin was a great... read more tour guide and really took care of us and was flexible with our needs and requests for the trip, it felt like hanging out with a friend!

  This company is reputable and professional. If you're booking a tour through Morocco, use them!! Incredible guide (Omer) and professional & accommodating company.

  I highly recommend this company “Desert day tours”. Visited Morocco with the wife for our honeymoon and had an incredible experience doing the 3 day tour. This would not have... read more been possible with the help of Said and Hamid. Said is very knowledge about the culture and history. Said offered valuable advice for the areas we visited to ensure that we would get the best out it as well as answer any questions that we had. Hamid is a great driver who will get you from point A to B without any issues we felt safe with him behind the wheel. They ensured that our time in Morocco would be an unforgettable experience. I suggest doing the private tour. We were able to stop and take as many pictures as we wanted. The accommodations that were made were great from the hotels to the food stops along the way. During the trip we stopped at a local restaurant and after sitting down and looking at the menu my wife and I did not like the options provided. Said was more than happy to take us to a different place which I appreciated. Day two of the tour I experienced stomach pain most likely from something I ate. Said suggested that we stop at a Pharmacy to get medicine which they drove us to without hesitation. He even went inside with us to make sure I got what I needed and communicated with the pharmacist. Long story short I was able to get the proper over the counter med and later that night the stomach pain went away. I can not stress enough how genuine Hamid and Said are. Thank you guys for making our trip to Morocco an unforgettable experience!! If it was possible to give over a 5 star review I would! Booking your tour with “Desert day tours” is a must if you visit Morocco. If you get stuck with Said and Hamid trust me you will have an incredible trip!

  As part of our time in Morocco our family of 7 wanted to spend time in the desert. We typically do all our own tours and do not hire guides.... read more After a little research into all the steps of getting from Marrakech to the desert and onto Fes, it became clear the best option in every way was to hire a guide. I scoured reviews online and chose Desert Day Tours. Mohammed, our guide, catered our tour to our personal likes (more local & adventure, no shopping). Sandboarding on the dunes was especially fun for all of us. Every part of our time with him was wonderful. The riads they booked for us exceeded our expectations - as did every part of our tour. I am so grateful we chose to go with Desert Day Tours instead of doing it on our own. It was an unforgettable experience for our family.

  We booked 3 days desert Tour and we really enjoyed it. It was very nice to see so many different places and to have your local guide With you. Mbarak... read more Was very nice and helpful.

  If you're looking to book, look no further- we had the most fabulous 4 days with this company and can't recommend it enough. The communication before the trip was quick... read more and efficient and the prices reasonable. From the moment Mohammed picked us up in Fes we knew we were in good hands and we could sit back and enjoy the trip. Everything was really well organised- no hiccups at all. Mohammed was a great driver (we felt safe on the roads), guide, gentleman ( he always opened and closed the car door for me ;)) and was a great companion. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the 4 days with him. The accommodation chosen by Desert Day Tours was also great- we absolutely LOVED our time at Dihya Desert Camp ( 2 nights) and had a restful night stop at the hospitable Dar Ahlam in Dades. We spent 14 days in beautiful Morocco and our 4 days with them was my personal favourite. A big thumbs up to both Mohammeds 🙂 Thanks very much

  I highly don’t recommend this agency coz it’s such a crazy capitalist Company , they only care about tip i doesn’t matter how they can get it from you .... read more Terrible driver he been late all the time , He been all time spending high even if then spend limits is specific at the road , They dont even speak ENGLISH , i try many times to get something from here but nothing . only was like Hahah with some berber words . I and my wife we wasted our time and our vocation for like this kind of stupid people , Even if they talking with you about the experience that you gonna have with them in Morocco but that all just a fake promises . I been talking to a guy in Sahara Desert about travel agencies in Morocco , and by accident he asked me about our tour costs , then boom surprise they add extra charges for ass around 1500$ extra more then people they use to get it , Coz we are Americans we handle to much dollars as they said . i highly don’t recommend this company for you , There is a bunch if palace to visit in Morocco but not with this kind of inexperienced people .

  Highly recommend booking with this company. This was definitely a highlight of our trip as we learned a lot about the Moroccan people and culture which is our main goal... read more when we travel to a new country. It is a great way to see a lot of places and get from one city to another in a nice private car. The website details about every place you will visit and see.

Before booking, we exchanged several emails and Mohammed answered any and all my questions; he answered my emails in a timely and professional manner. We originally were going to take this trip in March 2020 but decided to hold off as it was the start of the COVID pandemic. But as we were deciding on whether we could make it, Mohammed answered all my questions related to COVID restrictions in the country and seemed very flexible if we booked and then if we needed to cancel due to COVID. We decided to hold off since we were unsure how COVID would pan out. Over a year later, we were finally able to book our trip. Prices and everything we discussed before remained the same which I appreciated very much.

Our tour guide Mohammed was excellent and spoke English which was very good. He made us feel very comfortable and safe. We never felt rushed and was very accommodating. He always gave us timelines on what we should expect coming up and pointed out a lot of things along the way with interesting facts. He answered any questions we had. He was also great at taking pictures for us and many pictures too.

The car we were in was very nice and comfortable and very very clean. There was a little hiccup on our pickup in Fes which was my fault. I didn’t realize there could be multiple riads by a parent “company” name with a specific name under the parent name. I had given the parent name which took him to a different Riad. Luckily our Riad host was able to help us call him and figure out where we were. We were thankful that it was resolved quickly with the patience and support of everyone. I would recommend when communicating pickup to include address and link of place you booked.

The desert camp was very nice. Each tent had a bathroom and shower. It was very much glamping which I was very happy with. It was nice to be able to take a shower before bed after a long day.

On our drop off in Marrakech, Mohammed ensured we safely arrived at our Riad and called to ensure the people helping grab our luggage was from our Riad.

All in all it was a wonderful experience and highly recommend.

  Mohammed and Desert Day Tours provided an amazing experience for our first time visiting Morocco. Our driver Ismael was unbelievable and treated us as if we were family.... read more If you want to see multiple cities, and different parts of Morocco, then utilizing Desert Day Tours is an affordable option that makes the whole experience worry free. They take care of the logistics so you can focus on enjoying this beautiful country and it’s wonderful people. All our day tour guides (Abdel, Hakeem, & Mustafa) were knowledgeable and accommodating. I can’t recommend this company enough. If you are going to Morocco, this is the company to book your tour with!

  Mohammad was an excellent guide. He was prompt and efficient in dealing with any queries or matters and was extremely pleasant to be around. The driver Hamid was also excellent,... read more we felt extremely safe on the road and saw some wonderful sights. The car was also very comfortable. We felt like we were taken excellent care of. Everything was very polished and organised. The camp and hotel were also much nicer than we were expecting. We did the 3 days 2 night tour, the first night in a camp and the second in a hotel. The camel ride at sunset was also definitely unforgettable. Definitely a trip to remember!

  What a way to see the dunes! A key player in our trip was our guide, Yassin. Yassin was an excellent guide to me and my friends. He truly helped... read more to make for an unforgettable trip. He was knowledgeable and was keen to share with us the things he knew. He was responsive to our questions and shared just as much enthusiasm for the trip as we did. And I must add, what a great taste in music!

  We did a 3-day tour that started in Marrakech and ended in Fez.

This tour was without a doubt the highlight of our 10 day trip to Morocco.... read more From day one everything was perfect. Our guide (Mohammed) picked us up at the Riad and made us feel welcome with his friendliness. During the entire trip Mohammed was available to answer any type of question and left us completely at ease.

The tour included a tour of the Atlas Mountains, Aït Benhaddou's kasbah, Monkey Fingers, Todgha Gorge, not to mention the breathtaking landscapes we saw along the way.

When we arrived in the desert, dromedaries were waiting for us and we went to see a stunning sunset over the dunes of the sahara. The camp where we spent the night is magnificent and worthy of a 5 star hotel. Upon arrival at the camp we were very well received and at the end of the dinner, which was also very good, we were entitled to a very good performance of traditional desert music.

We start the next day watching the sun rise over the stunning dunes of the sahara before leaving for Fez. Once again, we were treated to the most beautiful landscapes that culminated in the interaction with the monkeys in the Azrou Mountains.

This trip was worth every penny and we hope to return one day. A big thank you to Desert Days Tour and Mohammed for this memorable experience.

  It was one of the most memorable holidays that any of my friends had ever had. I did an internet search last year and found great reviews about Desert Tour.... read more We had a specific plan for 10 days in Morocco for the 6 of us. And Mohammed Taghloui is one of the few agents that able to accomodate to our needs and able to personalise our trip. And he has the best reasonable price. For the same 10 days trip , other companies will charge you much more. We only need to give low deposit of MAD3000 for 6 of us and we paid cash for balance when we arrived there. Our tour starts from Marakech-Dandes Valley-Erg Chebbi Camp-Fez-Chefchouan-Pass through rabat -Casablanca -Marakech airport. He booked all the hotels we have asked for,upgraded our tour bus to 17 seater from 12 seater bus, gave us wonderful driver Mohamed Boumeshoul and wonderful guides in Marakech and Fes. Our driver Mohamed Boumeshoul has been so much fun, helpful and we all love him like our little brother. He is also full of knowledge on the places that we pass by and stays. He was very accomodative to our needs. Example, when 3 of my friends did not get their checked in baggage from Turkish airline ,for 3 days ..he drove up and down driving my friends to the airport up and down until the 3rd day they finally got their luggage.Our guide in Marakech,Mustapha Ohassou has also been super helpful going to the airport to assist my friends.Because of the delayed baggage, we had to change n push forward our itinerary, the owner Mr.Mohamed Taghloui was so great that he allowed us to made the changes without extra cost..except the extra night in marakech we had to pay ourselves which we can claim from the airline and insurance. ALL the hotels were beautiful and clean. The experience in Sahara Desert was like a dream. It was one one my friends birthday..i Asked the owner's help to organise a surprise during the Berber show at the camp after dinner. He arranged for a surprise Birthday cake for my friend and they brought the cake in the middle of the performance n sang birthday song in berber way in front of the fireplace under the stars...and later we danced the night away.. surreal experience..earlier in the day before we had ATV bike ride and after that camel rides to the camp.in Fez , we have a very knowledgeable guide name Mohammed Ohga ..we only stayed for one night n we should have stayed for 3 days and 2 mights to experience Fez fully.We made a mistake of going there on Friday as all the shops in souk are closed on Friday.so..if u have a long trip..organise your desert camp on a Friday.so make sure places u go that has souk is not on Friday lile Marakech,Fez and casablanca...and if you have a guude , please inform guide to allow you to shop around at the souks before taking you to the bigger shops which has more quality and choices because there are the factory outlet(quality means much more pricey).Chefchouan is super beautiful..we had one of the hotel staffs to show the
place to take Insta friendly pics..too many
to write here..just want to say that
Desert Day Tour have given us unbelievable experience in a life time at a very reasonable cost.i will definitely recommend to my friends n my families because Mohamed Taghloui are trustworthy with excellent staffs and services. I have done my research , he would be one of the best travel agency in Morocco as they give what is beyond expected.Thank you Desert Day! You will see us again one day
.

  We had an excellent time on our tour. Desert day tours had excellent communication. Our guide Yosuf and driver Hamid were very helpful. Yosuf taught us so much about Morocco.... read more We stayed right near his local community near Mouzzaga when we had our time in the desert and learnt much about the Berber culture and had many laughs along the way. The hotels were all excellent and the highlight was our visit into the Sahara as well experiencing so much Moroccan scenery from the mountains to the desert. Would recommend this 3 night tour for sure!

  We did the 3 day, 2 night tour that started in Fes and ended in Marrakesh. The first night was spent camping in the desert, and the views were one... read more of a kind, as was camel riding in the desert! The second and third days were spent visiting different local cities and landmarks. The second night, we spent the night at a Riad, it was very beautiful and covered through the tour.

Our driver, Mohammed, was so great - he was incredibly kind and personable. My only complaint would have to be the restaurants we were taken to on our route, because they all seemed like tourist traps (because every restaurant we were taken to during this trip was filled with tourists from all over), however if we didn't like anything, Mohammed was very accommodating and agreed to take us other places.

All in all it was a great experience for a really great price and I highly recommend it to anyone who's thinking about going!!!

  Desert Day tours organised a bespoke 6 day/5night trip from Fes to Marrakesh via the mountains and desert.

Our guide and driver, Hamid, was friendly, reliable and shared plenty... read more of the Berber culture with us. We had short hikes along the way and a day trek with camels. The trip was flexible each day with extra stops suggested for additional kasbahs, panoramic views and local produce.

Hamid was also a very safe driver compared to others we witnessed.

Would highly recommend.

  We engaged their services for 4d3n in late november from Fes to Marrakesh. Youssef was a great driver who navigated the long windy mountainous roads with ease, it also put... read more us at ease and we even fell asleep most times as we felt safe. He was always very patient while waiting for us to be ready, and also when he had to drove back because we didn't know we had left something behind in a hotel on the mountain (which was about a 15mins drive back!) but he wasn't pissed or anything. A very flexible and easygoing guy. Thumbs-up!

The sahara desert adventure was extremely awesome. It was a wild ride to get into the sahara desert, going up and down the sand dunes. We visited nomads who stayed in the desert and chilled out at their accommodation having their speciality; berber tea and nuts. Of course we also got to see camels, and even rode one close to sunset time, climbing a tall sand dune to sit at the top and watch the sunset. The Dihya desert camp that we got was a very new experience for us, sleeping in a tent. After dinner, there was firecamp and performance by the camp crew, singing and playing African percussions to their berber songs. It got super duper cold at night, but that's beside the point. It was a very memorable night that we will never forget.

Overall, we would recommend desert day tours for your trip in Morocco.

  We booked Desert Day Tours because they helped us plan our 10 day trip to Morocco and had the most reasonable prices. Our driver, Omar, was nice and was always... read more there on time whenever we needed him. We had a wonderful trip and would highly recommend their services next time we visit Morocco

  This was one of the best experiences of my life! Seeing the inner workings of the Moroccan lifestyle and the stunning Saharan Desert will change you forever. If you are... read more hesitating, don’t. We decided last minute and Mohammed booked a custom trip for myself and my husband in one day. He went above and beyond, chose the best routes and comfortable accommodations throughout. We spent the night in a luxury desert camp that could very well be a 5 star hotel. We did our research, and Desert Day Tours has the most affordable pricing without sacrificing any comfort. We had a large air conditioned van for all of the days, filled with traditional Moroccan sweets. Now our guide Mouhssine, is the highlight of it all. We consider this guy family. He knows EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING about Morocco and will take care of you in the most thoughtful ways. We are both vegans and he always made sure we were looked after. He is a star and someone we will always remember. We miss him dearly and can’t wait to be back. Do yourself a favor, BOOK THIS TRIP NOW!
