Our 2-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech with Morocco Fabulous Travel was a truly unforgettable adventure. From the moment we were picked up at our riad in Fes, the journey was seamless and well-organized. The camel trek through Erg Chebbi Dunes was undoubtedly the highlight, providing a magical experience as we watched the sunset over the mesmerizing desert landscape. Morocco Fabulous Travel prioritized our comfort throughout the trip. The luxury camp exceeded expectations, offering private tents with en-suite bathrooms. The evening around the campfire, accompanied by Berber music under a starlit sky, created a magical atmosphere. The knowledgeable guides shared insights into Moroccan culture, turning the long drive into a cultural immersion. We highly recommend Morocco Fabulous Travel for an exceptional desert adventure, and if time permits, consider the three days Fes to Marrakech tour for an even richer experience.
