Our driver, Zohir, met us at 8:00 AM in Marrakech, ready to embark on our adventure. We drove to Ouarzazate, stopping almost every hour or two to soak in the sights and experiences along the way. Our accommodation for the night was in the Dades Gorge—a very clean and comfortable hotel where we enjoyed a fantastic dinner.
One of the highlights of our journey was visiting a Berber village. It was fascinating to explore their culture and traditions, and we were warmly welcomed with tea by a local family. After leaving the village, we finally arrived in the Sahara. This part of the trip was truly the highlight. We had ample time to relish the vast sand dunes and even enjoyed a camel ride. The experience was surreal.
In the evening, we gathered at the campsite where we were treated to a delightful dinner. The night was filled with singing, dancing, and stargazing. Watching the sunset and sunrise from the dunes was magical.
The tour was excellent and offered incredible value. Our guides were helpful and eager to answer questions, providing insightful information throughout the trip. I highly recommend this tour!
