Una experiencia increíble. Desde que nos recogieron en el café de france todo ha sido fantástico. Nuestro conductor Hassan nos ha cuidado muchísimo y nos ha hecho de guía sin ser ese su cometido. No tenía problema alguno en ninguna de nuestras peticiones, sin duda alguna le damos un 10. En el campamento todo ha sido fantástico. El paseo en camello, el recibimiento, el trato, las instalaciones, la comida… no nos han podido tratar mejor. Sin duda alguna lo repetiría. Translate this opinion into English.

An incredible experience. From the moment we were picked up at the Café de France, everything was fantastic. Our driver, Hassan, took great care of us and acted as our guide, even though that wasn't his job. He had no problem with any of our requests; we definitely give him a 10. Everything at the camp was fantastic. The camel ride, the welcome, the treatment, the facilities, the food... we couldn't have been better treated. I would definitely do it again. Opinion translated.

Esperienza magnifica di 2 giorni con tante attività. Il viaggio in autobus è molto lungo ma si effettuano diverse soste. Nelle tende non ci sono prese elettriche, è possibile caricare i dispositivi nella tenda adibita a ristorante. Cena e colazione molto buone. Nelle tende non si soffre il freddo perché ci sono molte coperte e i bagni in comune sono pulite. Le guide parlavano italiano e portate delle monete per le mance che sono escluse. Ristoranti scelti da loro, di scarsa qualità.

Regresamos a Marrakech, el segundo día, a las 16:00 cuando la actividad indica que se regresa en torno a las 18:30; eso quiere decir que o nos saltamos alguna parada, o algo quedó sin hacer. La excursión estuvo bien, aunque el desierto de Zagora apenas tiene dunas y son muy pequeñas. Si se dispone de un día más, creo que es recomendable ir a Merzouga.

We returned to Marrakech on the second day at 16:00 when the activity indicates that we return around 18:30; that means that either we missed a stop or something was left undone. The excursion was good, although the Zagora desert has hardly any dunes and they are very small. If you have one more day, I think it is advisable to go to Merzouga.

La duración de las actividades ofertadas tiene carácter referencial y podrían sufrir variaciones en función del propio desarrollo del servicio o por factores externos, como el tráfico o el clima. Podemos confirmar que la visita se llevó a cabo al completo, impartiendo las explicaciones como de costumbre y realizando todas las paradas previstas. Sentimos si, a pesar de ello, no cumplió con las expectativas. Translate this opinion into English.

The duration of the activities offered is for reference only and may vary depending on the development of the service or due to external factors, such as traffic or weather. We can confirm that the visit was carried out in full, with explanations given as usual and all planned stops made. We are sorry if, despite this, it did not meet your expectations.

Una excursión muy completa si se tienen pocos días pero se quiere visitar algo más que la ciudad de Marrakech. Nos gustaron los paisajes y monumentos históricos visitados durante la excursión, si bien el desierto no es tan grande e impactante como el de Merzouga. El conductor Said fue muy amable en todo el viaje, con un control de las horas efectivo para completar cada actividad de la excursión. Cabe reseñar también la comodidad del minibus en el que viajamos. Lo recomendamos. Translate this opinion into English.

A very complete excursion if you have few days but want to visit something more than the city of Marrakech. We liked the landscapes and historical monuments visited during the excursion, although the desert is not as large and impressive as that of Merzouga. The driver Said was very kind throughout the trip, with an effective control of the hours to complete each activity of the excursion. It is also worth mentioning the comfort of the minibus in which we traveled. We recommend it. Opinion translated. Show original.

A atividade correspondeu às expetativas. A haima era confortável , o passeio de camelo foi muito agradável, o caminho de ida e volta mostrou-nos imenso sobre a cultura Marroquina e todo o pessoal foi excecional. Um agradecimento muito especial para o nosso motorista/guia Saied, que foi muito profissional e mostou uma disponibilidade e simpatia permanentes, que enriqueceram muito a nossa experiência. 5 estrelas!

Avant tout, nous avions un super chauffeur-guide, Saïd, qui a été très agréable, nous donnant beaucoup d'informations tout au long du trajet. Sinon, la description de l'excursion disait "des dunes à perte de vue", pas du tout, trois au quatre petites dunes, c'est un erg, à l'entrée du désert, pas dans les dunes, c'est décevant. Et enfin, le point le plus négatif est le repas du soir, personne n'a mangé les entrées, un goût affreux et le reste bon mais en petite quantité. C'est dommage !

El largo trayecto por impresionantes carreteras de montañas por el Gran y pequeño Atlas se nos hizo muy ameno y llevadero gracias a nuestro guía Youssef. Muy atento y un gran guía que nos ayudó a conocer un poco más sobre la cultura de su país. En el desierto no esperes mucha arena y grandes dunas, pues no es de ese tipo. Pero está bien para vivir la experiencia de pasar una noche en el desierto y disfrutar del cielo estrellado. El campamento bien para pasar una noche. Translate this opinion into English.

The long journey along impressive mountain roads through the Grand and Petit Atlas was made very pleasant and bearable thanks to our guide Youssef. He was very attentive and a great guide who helped us learn a little more about the culture of his country. In the desert, don't expect a lot of sand and large dunes, as it is not that type. But it is good for the experience of spending a night in the desert and enjoying the starry sky. The camp is good for spending a night. Opinion translated. Show original.

Bellissima e ben organizzata,personale molto professionale. Le ore di viaggio sono intervallate con soste nei bar e in qualche bellissima città da vedere lungo il tragitto. L esperienza sul cammello di 1 ora è bellissima,poi il thè sulle dune con il tramonto.Noi avevamo la tenda con il bagno,molto minimal ma confortevole,doccia calda e pulita. Ovviamente c'è freddo e non è riscaldata.cena tipica ottima poi intorno al fuoco hanno cantato e suonato.personale simpatico e disponibile.

La excursión al desierto fue fantástica una experiencia increíble que hay que hacer si o si. Igual, las paradas que íbamos haciendo por pueblos beréberes también increíbles, con guías muy simpáticos y amables. El conductor, SAID, una persona maravillosa dispuesto a ayudarnos en todo momento y gracias a él aprendimos muchas cosas de la cultura. Nos tocó un grupo muy bueno, con el que tuvimos mucha afinidad y lo pasamos genial. Sin dudar, volvería a repetir esta actividad! Gracias por todo Translate this opinion into English.

The desert excursion was fantastic, an incredible experience that you have to do. The stops we made in Berber villages were also incredible, with very friendly and kind guides. The driver, SAID, was a wonderful person willing to help us at all times and thanks to him we learned many things about the culture. We were in a very good group, with whom we had a lot of affinity and we had a great time. Without a doubt, I would repeat this activity! Thank you for everything. Opinion translated. Show original.

Una experiencia recomendable, el guia Lamine con su predisposición y buen castellano hizo que nos sintiesemos muy integrados, algo largo el paseo en dromedario aunque puedes decidir si hacerlo o no, y el trayecto en bus pero una experiencia muy bonita pasar la noche en el desierto. La diferencia entre premium y estándar está en tener somier en el colchón y ducha privada. Translate this opinion into English.

A highly recommended experience. The guide Lamine, with his predisposition and good Spanish, made us feel very integrated. The camel ride was a bit long, although you can decide whether to do it or not, and the bus ride, but a very nice experience spending the night in the desert. The difference between premium and standard is having a mattress with a box spring and a private shower. Opinion translated. Show original.

Esperienza spettacolare!! Le sei ore di viaggio non ti pesano perché ci sono sempre soste abbiamo visto posti spettacolari, arrivati nel deserto dopo un bellissimo giro al tramonto sui cammelli veniamo accolti con the e biscotti , abbiamo cenato e dopo cena cantato e ballato intorno al faló sotto le stelle . L' unica pecca è il freddo.. le temperature la notte scendono tantissimo in tenda non si riesce a stare se non sotto le coperte. Per il resto esperienza unica

Una de las mejores experiencias que puedes realizar en tu visita a Marrakech, ya no solo por lo bien que esta montado la actividad, sino por que ves como es de verdad la vida por Marruecos. Nuestro chofer, Youssef y todos los que nos acompañaron durante el recorrido, nos hicieron sentir como en casa. Si vais en los meses de Enero y Febrero, hay que llevarse bastante abrigo, las temperaturas bajan mucho, durante el día las temperaturas son agradables. Translate this opinion into English.

One of the best experiences you can have during your visit to Marrakech, not only because of how well the activity is organized, but because you see what life is really like in Morocco. Our driver, Youssef, and everyone who accompanied us during the tour, made us feel at home. If you go in the months of January and February, you should bring plenty of warm clothes, the temperatures drop a lot, during the day the temperatures are pleasant. Opinion translated.

L’esperienza è stata davvero bella. Pick up puntuale al luogo di ritrovo. Mohamed era il nostro super driver - bravissimo, conosce un sacco di lingue, sempre pronto ad aiutarti. Lungo il percorso ci siamo fermati alle tappe precondivise. Mohamed ci ha spiegato un sacco di storia nel cammino. Siamo arrivati al tramonto per il giro in dromedario. La sera ottima cena berbera, con la musica e l’indomani rientro a marrakesh. Raccomanderei questa esperienza Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was really nice. Pick up on time at the meeting point. Mohamed was our super driver - very good, knows a lot of languages, always ready to help. Along the way we stopped at pre-shared stops. Mohamed explained us a lot of history on the way. We arrived at sunset for the dromedary ride. In the evening excellent Berber dinner, with music and the next day return to marrakesh. I would recommend this experience Opinion translated. Show original.

Es sin duda una experiencia preciosa. El guia que nos toco, Mohamed, nos iba explicando todo además de facilitarnos el viaje con bastantes paradas que hacen más ligero el trayecto. Mención especial para el que fue más allá y nos hizo sentir en casa despejando toda duda y temor. Nos ayudó en todo !!!!No puedo estar más agradecida ya que se ganaron mi absoluta confianza y cariño por su tierra y cultura. Translate this opinion into English.

I couldn't be more grateful because they earned my absolute trust and affection for their land and culture. Opinion translated. Show original.

Hermoso viaje y recorrido. Los guías muy amables e informados. Mejoraría la luz de las carpas y sumaria algo de calefacción. Pasamos mucho frío ( no en las camas q tenían buenos acolchados), pero si en el ambiente. Y en las fotos parece el Sahara y no lo es..... Translate this opinion into English.

Beautiful trip and tour. The guides were very friendly and informed. I would improve the lighting in the tents and add some heating. We were very cold (not in the beds, which had good padding), but in the environment. And in the photos it looks like the Sahara and it is not... Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos recogieron a las 7:30 am, bien puntual. Realizamos parada para desayunar. Paramos por la montaña en un mirador. Luego fuimos a Ksar Ait Ben Haddou , recorrida de 1:30-2:00 horas. Luego continuamos y almorzamos (120 dirhams por un menú completo). Ya en Zagora estuvimos 1hs en dromedario(el recorrido es entre palmeras y terminan entre dunas). Llegamos, nos bañamos, y tuvimos cena con show. Al otro día, vimos el amanecer y volvimos a andar en dromedario. Luego retomamos a Marrakech por 8 hs Translate this opinion into English.

They picked us up at 7:30 am, right on time. We stopped for breakfast. We stopped at a viewpoint on the mountain. Then we went to Ksar Ait Ben Haddou, a tour of 1:30-2:00 hours. Then we continued and had lunch (120 dirhams for a full meal). Once in Zagora we spent 1 hour on a camel (the tour is between palm trees and ends between dunes). We arrived, bathed, and had dinner with a show. The next day, we saw the sunrise and rode the camel again. Then we returned to Marrakech for 8 hours. Opinion translated. Show original.
