Top 2 days tour from Marrakech to Merzouga Desert
A very well organized private 2 day tour from Marrakech for our family of 4. All accommodations selected for us were great with delicious food and comfortable beds. Hassan our guide and driver was awesome, always on time and eager to share about his country, culture and music during the long car ride.
The Erg Chebbi dunes were beautiful, the camel ride a highlight of the trip for the kids (although your buttocks may be sore for days;) and the sunset and sunrise unforgettable. The stop for tea in the Berber tent was nice and relaxing.
