We booked them for the overnight desert experience including the camel riding which was such amazing trip! We came on our own car from Marrakech to Merzouga, where we met Mohamed and went over and beyond his duties to ensure that we all feel safe and comfortable. We left our car in safe parking, have the camel ride for more than one-hour, tried sandboarding, and had the overnight in a luxury desert camp. We shared many stories with our guide answering all our questions and had fun around the camp-fire. I highly recommend this desert experience!

We've just came back from a marvellous trip in Morocco with professional guide Youssef, who made this trip ungovernable. We start from Marrakech to Sahara desert to ride camel and overnight in Berber camp. Then to Fez. This was great thanks to Africa Morocco Tours and Youssef.

My best friend and I were originally supposed to take another tour with another company, which fell through at the last minute. Talk about fortuitous!!! We could not have been happier with the tour and especially our driver Omar! Wow. Omar was so very friendly, personable and knowledgeable. And what a sense of humor! He geared the entire trip around what we wanted to do, and would stop anywhere we wanted to stop (“ooooh Omar- what’s that?” “Would you like to stop?”) My friend and I (we are both American) ended up taking the tour with a Russian couple and by the second day it felt as though all 5 of us had already been friends who decided to go on road trip together. The places we were scheduled to stop were beautiful, safe and friendly. The night at the Berber village was fantastic, where we took a desert camel ride at sunset and then another the next morning (don’t let “camel trek” scare you off. It’s not much time spent on the camel) at night there were drums and singing by firelight, with about 10 other travelers from different treks. And let me tell you I have never seen stars like the ones I saw in the Sahara. I didn’t want to even blink so as to soak up every moment. If you are in Fes and on your way to Marrakech, this is the way to do it. This company also does other routes so check in with them if that’s not your exact direction. Whichever way you go, take your time and soak up as much of the local culture as possible. If you’re a shy traveler, it’s a great way to meet other travelers and really learn about and get a feel for local flavor. Its very affordable and if you are lucky enough to get Omar as your driver, any questions you may have will be answered with aplomb. Can you tell I cannot say enough good things about Omar? He really made sh*t happen. One more tip: if you are planning on renting a car and driving in Morocco, I would advise against it as a foreigner, especially if you do not speak Arabic. I was planning on driving myself from Marrakech to Chefchaouen and cancelled the car reservation upon arrival to Marrakech after seeing how many police checkpoints there are throughout Morocco. Having a government sanctioned/licensed tour company like this one is your best and safest way to go, with far less hassle from the police. Have fun and I hope you enjoy Morocco as much as we did!

Not worth it at all. Spent the entire time driving around in a car. Had a few stops to look at the sites. Not much to see in Casablanca. Just go to Hassan II on your own. The worst part was being taken to an authentic Moroccan art display... you mean a rug shop where they try to get you to buy overpriced rugs. Not worth it at all. The driver was great though.

Marrocos is colorful and exotic. We chose to go in a group. But the tour had many stressful moments. We had to walk 7 km in Fez' Medina , no way to leave the group. The guide wanted us to visit places where HE wanted us to go, it was stressful... no time to enjoy and take pictures as we wished. The hotels were nice , but most of the days we arrived late , 9 PM more or less and had to leave around 8 AM. The desert experience was vey nice and well organized, but again no time to enjoy the town and the hotel. My wife and I have knees problens , the guide didn´t care for that . The tour can be done, but in Fez and in Marrakesh , leave the group and take a private tour.
