The tour was absolutely fantastic! It ended up being just me and my guide, Houssain, which made the experience even more personal and enjoyable. I went into the trip with no particular expectations, but it turned out to be one of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was smooth, relaxed, and well-organized. The food was incredible, the people were warm and genuinely hospitable, and the entire experience was both memorable and truly delightful. I look forward to going back and learn more.Show more

If you seek adventure in Morrocco, look no further. Hiking in Ait Sedrate Jbel El Oulia, technical cliff climbing in the Todra Gorge, camel riding in the Sahara to spend a night with the Bedouin nomads, ATV riding in the dunes, horseback riding in Ait Zineb Casbah…. Etc, etc… all things considered, what made this adventure truly amazing was my guide Mohammed…not only was he fountain of knowledge, he knows everybody…and everybody knows him! if you are looking for an adventure in Morocco that’s off the beaten track, trust me,you have no need to search further 👍🏻Show more

Trip of a lifetime. I went as a solo female traveler and it was just me and Mohamed. Mohamed was amazing - he was so accommodating, knowledgable, kind, smart and fun. Yes I was very nervous about going alone before I started but he made me feel so comfortable. The adventures were unreal - the camels, the desert, the horses, the rock climbing and the incredible sites and cultures. The flexibility this tour provides is incredible.Show more

A very nice active and interesting trip. Our guide was Mohammed. I recommend everyone to choose this trip instead of a short cheap three day trip to the desert from Marrakech. On the short trip you sit in the bus more than you see anything. On this trip you really get to know the country, do exciting activities, sleep in nice hotels and although you have to travel a lot it doesn't feel that way because there is a fun activity or sight seeing every so often. We were very lucky with our guide. He has a pleasant personality, is open minded and because he himself comes from a Nomad family, we learned about Nomad life up close. We visited a Nomad family; very special how they live and how hospitable they are. Besides the activities from the standard program, Mohammed also looked at other activities that fit our interests. For example, we visited a car museum. Really interesting. A trip never to forget.Show more

The whole trip was a whirlwind of experiences and adventure. When they say it is active then you need to believe it, every day is full of different trips and activities, you are not in any one place more than one night, and it is tiring. Yes, as others have noted, you spend a lot of time on the road; this is because the country is vast and many of the sights and locations are spread far and wide. What is really great though is that the experienced guide will manage the time spent in the vehicle with stops, lunches and visits, so you always have something to break up your time on the road. Our guide, Mohammed, was just amazing and so knowledgeable. He listened to what we wanted to get out of our trip, was flexible and accomodating. He was able to take us to several places that were not on the itinerary, which made the trip so much more special, because we were able to immerse ourselves in local culture. We cannot stress how special he made it for us. TouregTrails was brilliantly and efficiently organised, we absolutely would go back and would love to see a different part of Morocco with them, and Mohammed as our guide.Show more

  If I happen to be the only person booked for this date, will the tour still go ahead as planned? I'm planning to fly home on the final day (2 Jan). What's the earliest departure time you would recommend from Marrakech Airport to ensure I don't miss my flight? How much do you charge for airport transfers (pick-up and drop-off)? I also wanted to check again whether you offer any discounts for solo travellers.
- TouaregTrailsOperator•Written November 2025
  Once booked, your tour is guaranteed to run even if you're the only guest. We'll reach Marrakech around 4 PM, so best to book your flight after 7 PM, as the airport gets busy this date of New years. Airport pick-up and drop-off are free, but we don't offer solo traveller discounts.
