“Our experience was amazing and more than we could have ever asked for! Youssef was our guide and became a friend by the end of the trip! He taught us so many things about the culture, and locations and was always answering our many questions. He made the adventure memorable and I would not choose anyone else! We got engaged on our tour with the sun coming up over the dunes and it was perfect and an exciting way to highlight the trip! So many good things to say about this company, especially Youssef!”
“This was an unforgettable 6-day desert tour from Agadir, thanks to Aziz, our driver and guide.
He was the essential part of our tour: he showed us many things on the way, explained the history and he drove safely! I could not ask for a better guy to stay with us for 6 days! The view and the sight were spectacular on the way to the Merzouga desert. We enjoyed the tour and we can say, our stay in Marocco could not be as fantastic as it was without this tour. Highly Recommended.”
