    Would there be an option of skipping the horseback riding and doing something different? Someone in our group has an allergy.

  • S

    Shane

    Asked on April 23rd, 2026

    I am interested in this tour, but it is much more expensive than similar tours. I'm finding 4 day group tours that are less than $400. I even found a 6 day similar private tour (I'd be the only guest) that is $1300. I want to do this tour, but I can't justify how much more expensive it is than similar experiences. Can you offer a discount?

    Price / Availability
    • TouaregTrailsOperator•Written April 2026

      Unfortunately, our prices are fixed.

    Stephen

    Asked on February 3rd, 2026

    Can you help organise post-tour accommodation at the beach in a 4 or 5-star hotel?

    Accommodation
    • TouaregTrailsOperator•Written February 2026

      Yes we can arrange their tour including the beach 4/5 stars accommodation

  • I

    Ivan

    Asked on January 6th, 2026

    where would the meeting point be for the beginning of the tour/trip? Will we be returned to that same meeting point?

    Tour Details
    • TouaregTrailsOperator•Written January 2026

      We can pick you up directly from your hotel or riad in Marrakech if it's reachable by car. If not, we'll meet you at a nearby parking spot, just a short walk away.
      At the end of the tour, we'll drop you back at the same place, unless you'd like a different location.
      Everything is flexible, if you want to change anything in the itinerary or need airport transfers or a start from another city, just let us know and we'll arrange it.

    Tamara

    Asked on November 3rd, 2025

    Do you offer any discounts or offers for solo travellers? What time does the tour officially start on Monday (29 Dec) and finish on Friday (2 Jan)? Is airport pick-up or drop-off included or available to add on? Could you share a general age range or profile of other travellers who usually join this tour? What is the expected temperature in the desert at that time of year, just so I can pack accordingly?

      Tour starts around 8:00 AM and finishes around 6:00 PM. Airport pick-up and drop-off can be arranged on request. Traveller profile: Friendly, active mix of explorers up to 70 years old. Weather: Days 20–24°C, nights around 5°C. Pack warm layers for Atlas Mountains and desert evenings.

      Tamara

      Traveler•Written November 2025

      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.
