Testimonials:

Morocco is magical:

The driver, Hassan, was very considerate in helping us along the way, no matter it was the luggage transportation or the scenic spots we wanted to visit, we could reach them all with a mission, so I highly recommend this Hassan driver. I have never been to similar places before, the point is that the local people are very kind and willing to come forward to communicate so that we can understand more about Morocco.

Thank you for Travelling In Morocco for this wonderful 7 days tour. We will come back one day.

Unique experience:

We traveled all over the country with Travelling In Morocco, and the desert of Merzouga is one of our most wonderful stops. Fabulous hospitality, lanterns and carpets on the sand, a campfire, a very plentiful and delicious dinner (we couldn't finish it), and a great program of activities to choose from sandboarding and quad bikes to camel rides and 4WD car trips to all the surrounding attractions. We were also surprised by the camping conditions: each tent has its own shower, toilets, and power outlets. In the Jordan Desert, for example, this was not the case.

So if you have to choose between a hotel and a campsite, don't hesitate. It's magical! 10 out of 10.

7 days tour from Agadir!:

The berber Camp was one of our many highlights of our 7 days Morocco round trip! Where in the world can you ride for so little money with a camel caravan into the Sahara, then enjoy a delicious typical dinner, listen to oriental music, sing dance, laugh - all under fantastic clear starry skies! Travelling In Morocco offers all this and MORE! Sandboarding and sunrise in the desert for example! After returning to the Camelhouse there was still the possibility to shower and a rich breakfast with everything the heart desires there on top of it! The staff and Hassan the leader of the camps, have given us an unforgettable experience in the Sahara near Mergouza.

Very professional service!:

The tour was the best experience we had on our trip to Morocco. We made several stops to admire incredible landscapes. Everything was perfect, from the hotel where we stayed the first night, the restaurants where we had lunch and the camp in the desert, which is very comfortable. The guide Hamid speaks very good English and is very nice and animated, the car is extremely comfortable. It is an itinerary not to be missed by anyone visiting Morocco, to enjoy the sunset during a camel ride is sensational, I recommend it to everyone.

Highlights overview:

During this 7 days desert tour from Agadir to Merzouga, we will take to visit a number of beautiful places such as Marrakech, Ait benhaddou and Merzouga. Down below, we have written some paragraphs about these places.

Marrakech, the red city:

The “Red Pearl of the South”, as Marrakech is called, is one of the four royal cities located in the central part of the country. Its long and rich history is evidenced by an above-average number of monuments. In the 12th century, the city became the capital of the empire, and in the 17th century it became a commercial centre as caravans passed through on their way to the interior of Africa. In the 19th century, King Moulay Hassan settled here, during whose reign magnificent palaces were built.

The city is landmarked by the Koutoubia Mosque with its minaret almost 80 metres high and the Jemaa-el Fna Square, where a mystical theatre is staged every evening. Here, jugglers, snake charmers, belly dancers and storytellers gather. Also, people visit there teh tombs of the Saadians where more than 60 members of the royal Saadian dynasty are buried. The palace of el-Bahia has been preserved almost in its entirety, with 150 rooms, where the vizier Ba Ahmed kept his harem of 100. Marrakech, with its wonderful atmosphere from the tales of a thousand and one nights, will evoke unforgettable experiences amidst palm trees, fountains and the remains of old fortifications.

The Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou:

Undoubtedly, Aït-Ben-Haddou is the most picturesque town in Morocco. Aït-Ben-Haddou is a ksar built against a hill. A ksar is a fortified city and in this case, is made entirely of wood and loam. Perhaps Aït-Ben-Haddou looks familiar to you because it is often used as a film set. Famous movies and series like Game of Thrones and Gladiator have been shot there.

During your visit to Aït-Ben-Haddou, you feel as if you are going back many years in time. It was built around the year 750 by the Berbers and it is particularly well preserved. It is named after the leader Ben-Haddou. They also say that Ben-Haddou is buried under the kasbah. This ancient city was the hub for trade routes between Marrakech and the Sahara.

The cinema city of Ouarzazate:

Tibetan monasteries, Egyptian temples, and biblical cities converge on the edge of Morocco’s desert-like Atlas Mountains. Here in the southwestern part of the country is home to Moroccan Hollywood. Meet Ouarzazate, aka Ouallywood.

The Moroccan city of Ouarzazate is home to the world’s largest film studio of all, called the Atlas Film Studios. Quite appropriately, then, Ouarzazate is called Ouallywood. The reddish-brown, desert-like void regularly transforms into a playing field of action.

More than two hundred films and television series have been shot at these studios. The Atlas Film Studios serve as the setting for iconic films such as The Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, The Mummy, The Passion of the Christ, Game of Thrones and the recently released film Aladdin.

Merzouga Sahara desert:

Merzouga desert is the highlight of all Morocco tours starting from Agadir, Marrakech, Casablanca, and Fes. It is a large desert located in the southeast of Morocco. The charming dunes and the plenty of activities to try there make it a favorite tourist destination.

Riding camels in an excursion throughout the desert and spending the night in a Berber camp is recommended. At night, local Berbers will play Music for you under a wonderful sky full of stars.

There other activities to try in Merzouga such as Quad Biking, Listening to Gnaoua Music, visiting the lake of Srij, visiting the Oasis of Hassi Labied and others.
