We explored the incredible landscapes of Merzouga through 4x4 tours and had the chance to see both sunset and sunrise. It was magical! Ali, the pilot, has a great experience when it comes to riding the dunes, which made us feel safe and comfortable during the whole experience. He took us to unique spots close to the boarder and shared his deep knowledge of the desert life with us! I highly recommend!

Once a very fertile oasis, the palmgrove, only known nowadays for its luxurious villas, used to give birth to the entire Tensift region more than a thousand years ago thanks to its ingenious underground irrigation systems.

Took the desert ride in January and it was SPECTACULAR! The mountains were topped with snow, the desert was gorgeous and we stopped in the most amazing fortified medieval house in which Led Zeppelin played a jam session with local musicians in the 90's. I won't tell you about the lunch experience as it was a highlight. Want to travel as a traveler and not as a tourist? Look no more and book this ride!

Transport not served, I used my own vehicle Only 30 minute of fly, so the 1 hour is not guarantee all the time, depends on climate Price higher +50% than the average on the market - Initial price is 200$, with negociation I took it with 150$, finally it was in some deal sites only with 100$. so doing a benchmark before is good option In general the staff is nice, especially Mr Mustapha and the Pilot are very gentle.

What a wonderful trip! Abdul was prompt and courteous and drove a clean, spacious vehicle. He expertly drove us through beautiful scenery, sharing local knowledge about the towns and landmarks we were passing. And the falls! Abdul gave us time to explore but understood it was time to go when our young children were tired. I HIGHLY recommend this excursion! We would do it again!

I would not want to stay anywhere else if I was in Marrakech. This hotel is one of the best places I have ever stayed. The staff go out of their way for you, they are amazing! We especially enjoyed the complimentary mint tea provided at certain times of the day. This is also a culinary hotel so the food here was by far the best we had in Morocco. The food is top notch and cooked to perfection. Not only was this a traditional experience, it was luxurious and the restaurant in the hotel was our favorite meal of the trip. Our room was beautiful, the decor will make you want to copy it! Our suite was stunning, spacious, clean and styled impeccably with Moroccan decor. They also offer tours that I would most definitely recommend. I will make sure to stay there again when I return to Marrakech.
