The best quick desert tour It one of the best tours we have ever done!!! We booked this Desert trip Fez to Marrakech...The trip was amazing. From the start to the end of the trip it was very clear what we were going to do during our trip and it was very well planned by Soukaina. And Nacer was our driver and he was awesome. He always had our back and had great conversations. Be prepared for a lot of driving...good news the countryside was beautiful.

The desert experience is truly fascinating Due to our short time period, we could only spare two days for the desert tour including our transfer to Marrakesh. Soukaina was very quick to build an itinerary suitable for our needs and the initial interaction with Paypal deposit payment was flawless. Our driver Redone was a very sweet guy, he also ensured that we did not miss out on anything on the road. He brought us to the desert for camel rides on time to catch the sunset and also ensured we were in Marrakesh on time the next day. He's a knowledgeable, fun character with a passion for music. The desert experience is truly fascinating but remember to pack some warm clothes for the cold nights as it was freezing when the sun went down. I would recommend this company My Morocco Travel for any tours as everything they promised was delivered and the communication was always quick and friendly. Many Thanks!!!

Amazing experience My experience at Merzouga Desert Yassine was a wonderful Driver/ guide! We had the most amazing trip to the Sahara of Morocco/Merzouga: stops in Ait Ben Haddou, Ouarzazate, and a standard camp in the desert. We felt very safe and well taken care of. Yassine made sure that everything was just right for us. Anything we wanted, he could arrange it. I highly recommend !!

10-day trip around Morocco "My husband and I took a 10-day tour around Morocco, visiting Casablanca and Rabat (briefly), Fes, Merzouga, Ouarzazate, Marrakech, and Essaouira. We were both very busy so we only had time to research tour companies for our trip. Fortunately, we picked the right one-My Morocco Travel! Yassine came up with the whole itinerary for us, incorporating our preferences and requests. The price of the tour was reasonable given the tour includes a car and driver at all time, tour guides at certain destinations, hotel, breakfasts and dinners, and camel tour to the desert. Our driver, Yassine , was with us for all 10 days. He was professional, prompt, honest, and diplomatic. He was also very flexible, stopping anywhere we requested . Yassine always made sure we had a good time and asked us for feedback on official tour guides. All the hotels booked for us were excellent. We were glad that we drove all over the country because Morocco is very diverse in geography and culture. Even with 10 days, we felt we just got a glimpse of why this country is so magnificent. We definitely plan to return and when we do, we would rely on My Morocco travel to plan our trip again."

The best Chefchaouen Trip We did the day trip from Fez to Chefchaouen. The company was very easy to work with and responsive. Our driver, Nacer, was simply amazing. He earned this 5-star review. He was very friendly and easygoing. He knew when we wanted to talk and when we wanted to just chill in the car. He took us to some nice viewpoints as well, but it never felt like a tourism shopping trip. We never felt pressured by anything, which was really nice. I’m short, if you’re willing to enjoy the Chefchaouen tour, Choose My morocco travel, it’s a good company.

Desert and camel ride experience Two of my girlfriends and I wanted to go to Morocco and found this to be a great way to see the country, with the best price and safety. We had a great driver/guide who took great care of us, gave us great insight into the people and the culture. I loved the restaurants and the hotels we stayed in and eat at. The highlight was the glamping in the tent in the desert and the camel ride. We had a three-day tour and thought it was a good amount of time. I would definitely recommend this to anyone going here looking to see a lot and at the most convenience!
