Sandboarding – Sandsurfing desert Morocco

  A great option for solo travellers  - I had an awesome 9 day tour in December with Ismael. He adjusted my itinerary to suit my liking and also to adapt for some unpredicted weather - making... read more sure that I got the most out of all my time in Morocco. He was friendly and professional, providing good company as he drove and also accompanying me in the cities at some points during my tour so that I wasn't alone the entire time.

The riads that I stayed in were cute and cozy, the local guides that the company partners with provided interesting tidbits about their cities. My tour also included several meals, and I was impressed with the quality as sometimes the included meals on these types of tours are lacklustre - but this was not the case on this tour. I particularly enjoyed the meal during my stay in Dades Valley.

The highlight for me was the desert sunset and I wish that I had been able to stay in the desert longer yet as it was peaceful, and as Ismael said - "the desert is where you go to find yourself".

  private tour with Private Desert Tours was exceptional from start to finish. We traveled fr  - We booked a private tour with Desert Private tours for our 20th anniversary, and it turned out to be the most unforgettable trip we’ve ever taken. The entire experience was... read more beautifully organized from start to finish — smooth planning, excellent communication, and truly exceptional service.
Our itinerary took us from Marrakech → Ait Ben Haddou → Dades Valley → Merzouga & the Sahara Desert Camp → Fes → Chefchaouen → Marrakech, and every destination was a highlight in its own way. The Sahara was absolutely magical, and we even added a 4-wheeler (ATV) ride across the dunes — an exhilarating and totally worth-it extra!
A huge shout-out to the amazing team who made our journey so special:
Ismael, our private driver — kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable
Mustafa, our guide in Marrakech — warm, engaging, and full of insight
Tyamy, our guide in Fes — thoughtful, informative, and wonderful to spend time with
They are truly wonderful people, and their care and professionalism elevated the entire experience.
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect way to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Highly, highly recommended!

  Moroccan Magic! - Marrakesh to Chefchaouen 5 Day Tour - Our tour was positively epic!! Our guide, Ismail, was fantastic! We wouldn't have seen a fraction of what we did without this tour. The accommodations were top notch, and... read more the included meals were all delicious. Our first night in the Dades Valley was incredible, from the hospitality to the food. The trip to the Sahara was wonderful, and we truly felt like it was a movie! Riding camels, playing in the dunes, and awesome photo opportunities. Fez was magical; our accommodation was beyond our expectations with perfect hospitality. We had a guide through the old city, and he was very knowledgeable and ensured we experienced everything we hoped to! Chefchaouen was our last stop, and we had the evening and morning to explore on our own. Great shopping opportunities and everyone is so friendly!
To do this tour in 5 days is a lot of driving; however, the destinations and experiences are totally worth the hours in the car if you can't do the longer option. You will have many chances to stop on this tour, with some surprises along the way!

  Amazing experience - This year I decided to do my yearly birthday trip in Morocco and I knew I wanted to see more than just Marakesh. I found PDT via Google and after... read more a few emails back and forth Abidene managed to tailor the tour to my desire (from Marakesh to Dades valley, desert, Fes, Chefchaouen, Meknes, Casablanca and back to Marakesh)
The tour itself was lovely, we met very hospitable local people and learned a little bit about the history of Morocco, even managed to forget my fear and rode a camel.
Ismail, our driver, was very nice, friendly and most importantly was an excellent driver which is quite a quality to have here:))
On my birthday (even though I kept it a secret), I was surprised with a birthday cake and a present to remember the trip. Kudos also to the Fes local guide that was amazing and managed to organize for me a lot of tiny surprises on my birthday. He made us regret not spending more time in Fes, maybe next time.
Overall the tour was memorable experience that I definitely recommend. We will definitely book another tour with PDT when we visit Morocco again.

  I already went on a desert tour with Abidine last february and I was absolutely amazed and stunned by the atmosphere in the desert and the insight I got in... read more both the nature and the culture and traditions of nomad life. It was an experience so different to everything I knew that I told my friends they should go on a tour as well. The five of us returned some month later to spend a whole week in the Sahara and we all loved it. Abidine is the greatest organizer I know, he thought about everything and cared about our wellbeing. He and the guides served us traditional food and at night we were telling stories at the bonfire. We could relax and enjoy the landscape and walking. I wish for everybody to once experience this. Thank you so much Abidine!

  I must say we really enjoyed the 3-day tour especially the hours in the Sahara, Dades, Todra and Ait Ben haddou as well as the 2 hotels & restaurants that... read more you recommended. These days serve a big break for us after lots of hassle in Marrakech as we were couple so outstanding there. Abdou, our driver, was very nice, friendly & helpful and he is the type person that does not keep you on talking which perfectly fits our style. Last not not least, thank you Abdoul of taking care of us during the 3 day and we'll not hesitate to recommend Private desert tours

  A Great Experience - We hired Private Desert Tours to take 4 of us around Morocco for 11 days, and we were more than pleased with our experience!
Starting with our communications with... read more Abiden, that were always promptly and professionally answered, to our days with Ismail, as our driver, we were more than happy!
Abiden set our tour up to take us where we asked, and had every detail covered. He had Ismail, our driver , meet us at the airport, and take us to our Riad. From that moment on, Ismail took care of us. He was an excellent, polite and courteous driver through all our long journeys around this amazing country! Every day Ismail got us where ever we were supposed to be. In the evening, he made sure we were settled at our Riad, before leaving us. Ismail would be at our Riad on time each morning to help us get our luggage to the car, and be on our way.
We journeyed from Marrakesh, to Essaouira, to Casablanca, Rabat, then Chefchouan, to Meknès, Merzouga ( the desert), and beyond with Ismail. We switched drivers before heading in through the High Atlas Mountains, as Ismail had to start with a new group. Our new driver, Adeel, was a very careful, confident driver through those rugged mountains, and on to Marrakesh.
In order to see as much of the country as possible, we put on a lot of kilometres. Some days had long stretches of driving, but we saw so many incredible wonders in this diverse and beautiful country!
Many thanks to Abiden, Ismail, and Adele for a trip of a lifetime!

  Our honeymoon in Morocco was unreal thanks to Abidine . The planning was seamless and stress free. We simply highlighted the destinations we wanted to visit and the rest was... read more magic. From the hotels, food and guides there was not one complaint. The culture, people and architecture is outstanding.

One highlight of our trip was the outstanding customer service. We received treatment as if we were staying at the Riad everywhere. Moroccan's are deeply invested in tourism. Our driver, Ismail was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He kept us safe and on schedule as well as provided great company. He tied the whole trip together and we could not have imagined a better trip leader.

I am recommending PRIVATE DESERT TOURS to all of my friends and family. We plan to use their service again in the near future.

  An Unforgettable Desert Adventure with Ismael and Abidine  - I traveled through Morocco for four weeks as a young woman traveling alone, and my desert journey with Private Desert Tours and the two brothers, Ismael and Abidine, became one... read more of the most meaningful and unforgettable experiences of my entire trip.
Ismael and Abidine lovingly crafted my three-day stay around my wishes, creating a journey that felt both adventurous and deeply personal. From endless, breathtaking drives through the desert to the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes, across the Atlas Mountains, and finally to the ocean — where I closed this magical adventure with a sunset horseback ride on the beach — every moment felt special.

Throughout the entire experience, I felt completely safe, cared for, and at ease. More than guides, Ismael and Abidine became like true friends, sharing their world with kindness, humor, and genuine warmth.

From the bottom of my heart, I can wholeheartedly recommend their tours. If you are searching for something truly special to complete your journey — something authentic, soulful, and unforgettable — don’t hesitate to reach out to Ismael or Abidine.

You will be in the very best hands.

  My friend recommended this private desert tour once he got back from his trip to Marrakech. He talked highly about Abidine and his team. I was worry about the heat... read more and some other logistics stuff but my confidence got boosted up as Abidine was very responsive and gave us a lot of informations. We were blessed to have Ismael as our driver and travel companion. Abidine and Ismael really took my worries away. Ismael was very on time yet very flexible with our requests. I could not memorize all the places he took us to but all of these places made my Morocco experience completed. Some of the tours that really stays in my heart is the visit to Ait Ben Haddou, the Berber house where Beber womens make rugs, and of course the Sahara adventures. Ismael was not only our driver, he also become a friend for a life time. It’s amazing how trust built in only a day. That’s how sweet and good he is. His driving is very good as well. My husband said he feel save traveling with him. When Ismael performed the Berber music in the camp, it was a perfect icing on the cake. I definitely going to recommend this tour to every single people I know who will go to Morocco! All in all.....SUPER!!!
