EXCELLENT Based on 284 reviews Coastal545189376732025-05-28Verified Marocco, terra stupenda! Ciao ragazzi. Io, insieme alle mie amiche, ci siamo affidate a Desert Discovery Tours e soprattutto grazie alla professionalità, serietà, accuratezza e massima organizzazione di Mustapha e del nostro mitico Ibrahim (colui che ci ha accompagnate e consigliate dal primo all’ultimo giorno) il nostro viaggio è stato stupendo! Il Marocco è una terra meravigliosa, ricca di colori, di profumi, offre paesaggi, panorami e tramonti straordinari. La gente del posto è molto accogliente. Che dire!? Vi consiglio assolutamente di affidarvi a loro. Solo così riuscirete ad ammirare la totalità e la meraviglia di questo posto. Martina P2025-05-27Verified Marocco sensazionale Sono partita con 5 amiche per un viaggio in giro per il Marocco. Cercavamo un pizzico di avventura e tanta meraviglia e abbiamo trovato molto di più di questo. Il Marocco è una terra affascinante, con una storia e una cultura fortissime, ma non sarebbe stato lo stesso senza l’organizzazione perfetta e precisa dei ragazzi di Desert Discovery Tours. Grazie a Mustapha prima e Ibrahim (il nostro accompagnatore per tutta la durata del viaggio) siamo riuscite a vivere un’esperienza piena e profonda e autentica e immersiva. Ibrahim, in particolare, ci ha dato una mano in tutto: oltre ad accompagnarci per tutta la durata del viaggio, ci ha consigliate, aiutate, è diventato un compagno di viaggio a tutti gli effetti e anche un caro amico.Consiglio vivamente quest’esperienza con il loro aiuto e la loro professionalità. La qualità del vostro viaggio sarà nettamente migliore. Nils H2025-05-25Verified Fantastic Tour of Morocco! Mustapha and his team organized a very nice tour for us, taking into account all of our wishes. The organization was excellent, from start to finish.Our guide and driver, Hassan, was incredible. Not only was he very nice and welcoming, he was also extremely knowledgeable. This made the trip a next-level experience. Not only did we get to see a lot of Morocco, we also had a lot of fun along the way.We followed our pre-planned tour, but as our guide and driver, Hassan got to know us better, he took us on small spontaneous activities along the route based on our interests and questions during the trip. This made it feel like a personally tailored experience.From Fez to Chefchaouen to Marrakech, each city had its own flair and appeal, but an unforgettable highlight was the time spent in the desert. The dunes, stars, and sense of calmness there are just unique.Thank you again, Hassan and DDT, for making this trip unforgettable.Matilda and Nils marica m2025-05-24Verified An extraordinary ten-day experience for the whole of Morocco. We were a group of six girls and our journey began in Marrakech. Upon our arrival at the airport we found our guide, Ibrahim, an extraordinary person who was with us throughout the trip. After visiting the Medina of Marrakech, with its markets, herbalist’s shops and Koranic school, our journey continued to the high-Atlas Mountains, the Unesco World Heritage Site Ait Ben Haddou and the Dades Valley. The next day, we moved to the Todra Gorges and then to the Merzouga Desert. Here we took a sunset walk on the dromedaries, participated in the Berber festival around the bonfire, admired the stars from the dunes and then saw the sun rise over them. A magical experience. The next day we did the quad bike ride on the dunes and Sandboarding, one of the funniest days of my life. After this experience, we stopped in Midelt, and then left for Ifrane and the cedar forest, populated by many monkeys. The next day was entirely dedicated to discovering the city of Fes, its markets, tannery and all the workshops of artisans and potters. We then continued our tour to Chefchaouen, the blue pearl of Morocco, then headed to Rabat and finally Casablanca. We spent the last day again in Marrakech, dq we left to return to Italy. It was a wonderful trip, organized with care and attention. Thank you for this Mustapha and the Desert Discovery Tour agency, for your availability and for the work done. A special thanks to Ibrahim, who was always with us on this trip, who satisfied our every need, recommending places to visit and places to eat and buy. It was an unforgettable experience that I will cherish forever. Thank you. Vittoria V2025-05-21Verified An exciting adventure in southern Morocco! A wonderful experience! We left Marrakech and, passing through Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate, we explored the dunes of Merzouga, the Todra Gorges and the valleys of Dades. The experience of walking with dromedaries and climbing dunes at sunset was amazing, as was the ride with quods. The night in the desert, with the stars shining above us and traditional Moroccan music, was magical. Our guide, Hassan, was fantastic: his knowledge of the region and his hospitality made every moment of our trip a unique experience, and the tour was perfectly organized, from the stops to the beautiful Riads we stayed in!The guided tour then of Marrakech at the end of the trip, getting lost in its souks, allowed us to appreciate even more the history and culture of this incredible city. A big thank you to Hassan and the organization of Desert Discovery Tours for making us live an unforgettable adventure, super recommended! noemi r2025-05-21Verified Amazing 5 days experience in Morocco An incredible trip to the South of Morocco! We started from Marrakesh and walked the dirt roads of Ouarzazate, and Merzouga, immersed in breathtaking desert landscapes. The experience of riding quad bikes and riding dromedaries in the desert was unforgettable. The night under the stars, around the campfire, with music and songs from the desert, was magical. The gorges of the Todra and Dades have left us breathless for their beauty and grandeur. The return to Marrakesh was accompanied by a guided tour of the city, which allowed us to appreciate its history and culture even more. But what made this trip truly special was our guide Hassan. His in-depth knowledge of the region, his passion and his hospitality made every moment of our trip an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Hassan, for letting us discover the secrets of this incredible corner of the world! You've been a fantastic guide and a friend. Thank you again for everything! 5/5 stars!

Ying S2025-05-18Verified Fossil Enthusiast Road Trip We did a private 5-day journey through Erfoud, the Merzouga area, and finishing in Ouarzazate, with a strong focus on Moroccan trilobites and fossils. The itinerary took us to several sites where we could search for trilobites, and we made a side trip to the Kem Kem beds to look for dinosaur teeth and bones which was an unforgettable experience for any fossil enthusiast.Our guide and driver, Moustapha, was knowledgeable and experienced with driving in off road conditions. We also had the benefit of a dedicated fossil guide, whose familiarity with the area led us into remote mountain areas, pointing out fossil-bearing rocks and helping to identify species on the spot.This is a great way to visit and see Morocco's geological features and find one of the 500 million year old fossil. Antonela G2025-05-17Verified Wonderful holiday! Our 4-day trip from Marrakesh to Fes, passing through the desert and the beautiful Chefchaouen, was simply perfect and much of the credit goes to Youssef, our exceptional guide.Youssef is a genuine, attentive and deeply passionate person of his country. He accompanied us with competence and warmth, explaining each place with enthusiasm and making us discover authentic corners that alone we would never have found. Every detail of the tour has been taken care of to perfection, from the accommodations chosen to the movements, always comfortable and punctual.We always felt safe and followed carefully, but never intrusive. His helpfulness and kindness really made a difference.
