It was a two-day bullet 2-Day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech, but in addition to experiencing camels in the Sahara Desert, staying in tents, the sunset, the sun, and the starry sky, we were able to take photos at the tourist spots on the road! I was happy because I did everything I wanted to do. However, Marrakesh from the Sahara Desert has bad road conditions, so if you are prone to get drunk, be sure to drink a sickness stopped. The tent was upgraded and correct.
We have the chance to have our excellent trip to the Sahara desert in Merzouga with Morocco Packages Holidays. This experience has been one of the best experiences in our life. Ahmed is an excellent driver, he shows us magnificent places on the way to the desert, and he was very good with us. This is an experience that everybody has to do once in his life. Thank you very much Ahmed and Morocco Packages Holidays.
This was my first time booking thru the website and I'm not going to lie, I was apprehensive that things might not have gone to plan. But they did and it was a great excursion and a great day. I will defo be using the website again to book excursions in the future. The 2-Day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech is the best choice if you are limited on time.
