Once the sun sets, a Moroccan dinner will be served alongside live music around the campfire, after which you are free to explore again - this time in the company of a million stars exploding against the pitch-black sky, and the all-encompassing silence of the Sahara at night.

Greta

Thank you MPT and TourHub team

25-Oct-2023

My encounter with Morocco Private Tours proved to be truly remarkable. From exciting buggy rides amidst awe-inspiring landscapes to a serene camel journey that immersed me in the enchantment of the desert, each activity offered a distinct and thrilling experience. The standout moment was undeniably the memorable hot air balloon excursion over Marrakech—an incredibly tranquil and captivating adventure. Additionally, the luxurious desert camp surpassed all expectations, featuring warm hospitality, delectable traditional cuisine, and the enchanting melodies of Berber music, creating a delightful ambiance. All of these extraordinary moments were facilitated by Morocco Private Tours and their outstanding guide Abdul, who infused each instance with expertise and attentiveness. I wholeheartedly recommend this comprehensive and distinctive adventure in Morocco. Gratitude to Morocco Private Tours for delivering an unforgettable journey!

genuine and authentic Sahara adventure

06-Oct-2022

The entire Morocco Private team Coordinated with TourHub team proved to be outstanding, from Ismail overseeing all arrangements to the remarkable Addull, our guide for five days. Traveling with our two daughters, aged 10 and 7, was a delightful experience as Addull took excellent care of them. He displayed kindness, patience, and thoughtfulness, even adjusting the itinerary to align with their interest in fossils. While certain parts of Morocco are frequented by tourists, such as the Sahara, the team managed to make the experience feel special and tailored to our preferences. The accommodations were of high quality, and although the food varied, the ones organized directly by Addull were fantastic (Berber pizza is a must-try!). I highly recommend their services.

The 5-day tour was absolutely fantastic. Nabil made the experience even more delightful, ensuring we could explore everything and always looking out for us—a genuinely pleasant and resourceful tour guide. The accommodations (riads), hotels, and restaurants in our itinerary were all top, with delicious meals and exceptionally friendly staff. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our time in Morocco and highly recommend it. It was an unforgettable adventure filled with remarkable sights and flavors.
