Why is the age limit 18-39? My daughters will be 16 and 17 this year. I'm 56.

This tour is a part of our 18-30somethings travel style, which is only available for travellers between the ages of 18 - 39 to book onto. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions.

We are 60 and 61 years old. We are fit and healthy and would like to join this tour group, if possible. Happy to answer any additional questions about our fitness.

For this tour it is in the travel style 18-to-Thirtysomethings and it does have a strict age requirement you would need to be in the ages of 18-39 to join, so you wont be able to book this. I would be more than happy to have a look for you at our other Morocco trips that does not have a age restriction, please let me know.

I am looking at booking this trip for the dates ending on the 2 September. I am a solo traveller who is 24 and was just wondering if anyone else around this age has booked in ?

There is currently only 1 other person booked on this trip date, and they are aged is in their 20's

I would like information about tours to Marrakech, the desert, and if it's possible to include Casablanca for the last week of April 2026.

The Moroccan Desert Adventure: River Canyons & Camels is a 7-day round trip from Marrakech covering the desert and cultural highlights, but it does not include Casablanca and cannot be customised—however, you can easily add Casablanca independently after the tour.

My Aunt may come on the tour with me. Would we be put in the same room? How may people would be staying in the tent together?

This tour forms part of our 18 to 30s tours. Which means that all travelers must be between the ages of 18 and 39 on day 1 of the tour. Would this tour suit you and your aunt?

I am interested in booking this tour but I am wondering why the average age of the people on the trip is as I am solo travelling and 24 and hoping there would be people my age

The dynamics of the group can still change closer to the time of travel.

we arrive in marrakesh on the 23rd in the afternoon, can we still join? Our child is 1.5 years old (do they have to pay?) do you have a list of the hotels we would be staying at?

This tour is only for the age range 18-39, we wouldn't allow anyone under this age on the tour unfortunately.

As soon as we arrived at the hotel, our CEO, Nabil, had already left a message for us at the front desk with his number and travel instructions. The van we’re traveling in is comfortable, and, although it’s true that the drives are long on some days, we make stops along the way to make it more bearable, plus our driver is very skilled. The views, the guides, the culture… everything is truly wonderful. It exceeded my expectations, and for the price, it’s almost impossible to believe that you get a hotel every night—and even meals included, special tours, and so much more! Nabil, the CEO, always has the best advice and insights, and knows all the places worth visiting. He steers clear of the tourist traps and offers an itinerary that truly showcases the culture, introducing you to the real Morocco—its history and its people. You can tell he has a deep love for his country and his roots, and he really conveys that to you.I was honestly really sad to go home—what an incredible country, such warm people, and of course, wonderful food! Thank you for this experience—it’ll truly be very hard to top. 10/10!! As a tip, I’d say ask as many questions as you can; the guides are incredibly knowledgeable and love sharing their traditions and talking about their history. It’s a tour for learning, having fun, exploring, and, of course, admiring the desert. Congratulations on this tour, guys—it’s wonderful! The itinerary they provide doesn’t even begin to cover everything it includes and everything you’ll experience :)Show more

CEO Hamza was the best CEO I've had so far. He's a very cool guy, and you can tell how much he loves his country and enjoys sharing it with others and showing Morocco at its best. His English was excellent, and he was simply great to travel with. Group Great group, great people, excellent group spirit, and a good group size. There were people from all over the world. Even though I joined the tour later than the others, I was immediately welcomed and fully included. Activities It felt like the main focus of the trip was the two-day stay in the Sahara, including camping, a 4x4 excursion, a cooking class, sandboarding, camel riding, and stargazing. The rest of the tour consisted mainly of driving, sometimes up to 8 hours per day. That said, I still think it was absolutely worth it because the desert experience was fantastic. My personal highlight was the hot air balloon flight at the end of the trip (booked separately through G Adventures). Timing At around 40°C it was already very hot, but still manageable. The temperatures were supposed to be closer to 35°C, but it worked out fine nonetheless. I'm definitely glad I came in spring rather than later in the year. Overall A very enjoyable trip with a great group and an excellent CEO. My only complaint is that it lasted just one week.Show more

Overall, this was a great trip with several standout experiences, especially riding camels at sunset in the desert, the hot air balloon ride at sunrise, and exploring the souks in Marrakech. I also loved trying local cuisine like tagine and mint tea, which added to the cultural experience. The guide was friendly, professional, and kept the group running smoothly, and I appreciated thoughtful touches like making drinking water available and helping out when my card wasn’t working. The main area for improvement would be communication, as at times it was difficult to understand the explanations due to accent and language differences, which made it harder to fully engage with the history and context of the places we visited. A bit more clarity around certain activities and the day-to-day plan would also enhance the experience.Show more

  It is very difficult to advise on an age range that will be booking the tour dates, as each one does differ immensely. One departure could be travellers in their 20s another all in their 60s lol. Once we have travellers booked on dates, then we can advise on the group dynamics for a better understanding.
