Before you book

Morocco Tour Questions

Can't find your answer? Message us on WhatsApp and a member of our team will reply personally.

Ask on WhatsApp
Are these group tours or private tours?

All of them are private. You travel only with your own family or friends, with a dedicated driver-guide and vehicle, and tours depart every day of the year.

What time do the tours start?

Multi-day tours usually leave at 8:00 am from your accommodation, so there is enough daylight for the stops along the way. Sunset camel treks in Merzouga start in the late afternoon.

Can I combine two tours or change the route?

Yes. Every itinerary can be shortened, lengthened or combined. Tell us your arrival and departure cities and dates, and we will suggest the most comfortable route.

How much does a private Morocco tour cost?

The price depends on the number of travellers, the season and the style of accommodation and desert camp you choose. Send us your plans and we will reply with a clear, all-inclusive quote.
