Wonderful trip. Our driver, Ismail, accompanied us into the desert and looked after us throughout the trip. He was always kind and helpful. The quad bike ride was very fun, and our guide was there to help the entire time, even stopping to take photos. The camel ride at sunset was also wonderful. The buffet dinner was good and varied, with traditional musicians, followed by a fire show. I recommend Morocco Global Adventures for an unforgettable desert experience.

Une excursion juste au top ! Que cela soit le transport avec le chauffeur Ismail ou le guide et toutes les explications qui sont super bien organisés comme le déroulé de l'excursion. Merci beaucoup à Nabil pour sa gentillesse et son dynamisme, ainsi que sa spontanéité qui a rendu cette excursion au top. Avec ma famille, nous sommes sortie de cette journée heureux.

Hello, I liked this experience because the team (Miloud and Brahim) were professional and caring: kind, well taken care of and vigilant in terms of safety. Joy and conviviality were the order of the day: hiking, meeting the locals, taming the monkeys, magnificent natural waterfalls, very good meals, a warm atmosphere full of emotions. A very satisfying experience, to be shared and repeated. Many thanks to you all. See you soon inch'Allah. Mrs ABOU-MOUSSA LALLA FATIMA

He explained everything with passion and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the trip. Everything was perfectly organized and right on time. Ebrahim really went above and beyond, he truly deserves all the praise! Highly recommend this tour, it’s a must!

Practical tips for choosing a guided tour in Marrakech

  • Check what’s included: Some guided tours in Marrakech don’t include entry tickets to attractions like Bahia Palace or Ben Youssef Madrasa. If you prefer not to wait in line or buy tickets separately at each venue, it’s best to add entry tickets online when booking your tour.
  • Consider your comfort and stamina: Many Marrakech tours are walking tours that last up to 3 hours and cover the Medina’s winding alleys, souks, and monuments. Wear comfortable shoes, carry water, and be prepared for the warm climate—especially in summer.
  • Stay aware during night tours: Marrakech is magical after dark, but if you choose a night tour, stay close to your group and be mindful of your surroundings. The Medina can be busy—keep your bag in front and your belongings secure while exploring.
