Private Tour through the Desert from Marrakech to Fes
It was really helpful to have a local show us around and made seeing the country easier. The guide took us to all the most amazing locations, including the best ones. From the point of departure in Marrakech to the Sahara desert and, ultimately, Fes. He was very patient to stop and take thousands of pictures, and he had a great attitude. The vehicle was quite pleasant and cozy. I'd advise anyone to take the same tour! The best part was riding the camel.
