We visited from US for a week trip to Morocco. One of the main highlights was this trip. The private driver, Mohammad was great, communication about travel was responsive and we have a wonderful stay in the desert and the camp was awesome! I would defiantly recommend booking this trip!

The drivers are great, AC functional. Location was nice, with fireplace and a band that sang and we also played at the instruments. The sunrise was really nice. Aït Benhaddou was amazing!:)
