Here’s something that’ll make you rethink everything you thought you knew about desert travel: while Morocco emerged as Africa’s most-visited tourist destination in 2024, welcoming 17.4 million international tourists, there’s a hidden story behind these staggering numbers that most travelers never discover. I learned this the hard way after booking what I thought was the “adventure of a lifetime” – only to find myself crammed into a bus with 47 other tourists, following a predetermined route that felt more like a desert assembly line than an authentic Sahara experience. But then something remarkable happened. My Berber guide, Youssef, pulled me aside during our lunch break and whispered, “You want to see the real desert? The one my grandfather showed me when I was seven years old?” That single question led me to discover why smart travelers are abandoning group tours in droves, choosing private desert Morocco Tour Package experiences instead. And honestly? The difference isn’t just night and day – it’s like comparing a postcard to stepping into a living, breathing masterpiece. The 89% Rule That Travel Companies Don’t Want You to Know Here’s a statistic that’ll shock you: according to recent surveys from Morocco’s leading desert tour operators, 89% of travelers who experience both group and private desert tours say they’d never go back to group experiences. Ever. Why? Because Morocco’s soaring popularity is fueled by once-in-a-lifetime experiences like camel trekking, but here’s what they don’t tell you in the brochures: on group tours, your “once-in-a-lifetime” camel trek lasts exactly 45 minutes, follows a predetermined path worn smooth by thousands of previous tourists, and ends with everyone taking virtually identical photos at the same “Instagram-worthy” spot. Now imagine this instead: You’re on a private desert Morocco Tour Package, and your guide notices you’re fascinated by traditional navigation techniques. Suddenly, your camel trek becomes a masterclass in desert survival, where you learn to read wind patterns in the sand, identify edible plants, and understand why certain dunes sing when the wind hits them just right. That’s the difference between tourism and transformation. Why Morocco Desert Excursions Private Tours Are Becoming the Gold Standard Let me paint you a picture that perfectly captures why tourism in Morocco has risen by 35% since 2019, with private desert experiences leading this unprecedented growth. It’s 5:47 AM. Instead of being awakened by the sound of diesel engines warming up and tour guides shouting instructions through megaphones, you’re gently roused by the smell of fresh mint tea brewing over an open fire and the soft murmur of your guide preparing for the day’s adventure. This isn’t just luxury – though Morocco desert luxury accommodation has certainly raised the bar for comfort in the middle of nowhere. This is about having the freedom to experience the desert on your terms, at your pace, following your curiosity rather than someone else’s schedule. Your private desert Morocco Tour Package means when you spot that incredible geological formation in the distance and want to explore it, you can. When.

From day one, Abidine was extremely responsive and helpful with our questions and helping us with our decision on picking the right tour for our time frame in Morocco. Always... read more very pleasant and professional, we had no problem booking our tour for two
abroad. Thank you Abidine for all of your help and organization!
When our 3-day tour actually started, we had no idea we were in for the trip of our lives. Our driver and guide, Ismaï, was prompt and on schedule, yet patient and accommodating for us whenever we wanted to stop for pictures. Also, he was great company with lots of insight without being an overbearing tour guide. He knows his way around..he never had to look at the map!
All stops were culturally immersive and fun, especially the Berber guest house in Gorges Dades. Very kind people who took care of us and cooked us the best dinner we had in Morocco! Not to mention the camel trekking and staying in the Berber tent. An unforgettable nights.
This is the real deal for a tour. Private is not an understatement, it was just us two with our private drive and our time. We were so happy we weren't on the bus tours loaded with other tourists. Private Desert Tours has given us memories for all our lives and we will without a doubt recommend this tour to any friends or family who plan to travel to Morocco. Our dream is to return one day and we will be booking with Private Desert Tours again.

My friends and I had a blast touring the Sahara Desert! The trip to and from the desert was full of lots of fun stops, but our experience in the... read more Sahara was truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Abdoul was a wonderful guide and taught us so much about Morocco. Abidene graciously answered many questions from us prior to the trip and was easily able to arrange for vegetarian meals. We truly had an incredible experience - it’s been the highlight of our trip; and I highly recommend Private Desert Tours. I plan on booking another, longer tour with them the next time I visit Morocco!!

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.

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!

This was... read more provided at a very reasonable price, given the luxury of the hotel and the amount of travelling we needed to do (Merzouga to Fes was 8-9 hours drive!). The organiser was very quick to respond and was well organised. We had Hassan as our driver and he was very accommodating to our needs/stopping whenever we wanted, and bringing to different locations that suited our wants. Overall a great experience, would recommend!

This was a unique experience which me and my family will cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you Abidine for making it possible. Your prompt response to all... read more my queries helped me plan my trip better. A million thanks to Ismail (our guide) who made sure we had a wonderful time through the trip. We feel like we made a great friend in him. From introducing us to local music, to tirelessly driving the 4 days, to taking us to these amazing riads run by the most wonderful people, to showing us the main sites to see along the way - he was simply amazing. This tour helped us experience Morocco in a way that no other tour could. We met amazing families who hosted us. The desert camp was spectacular. I was worried that being a vegetarian and not being able to speak arabic or french would be major hurdles - definitely not so. This tour made it so easy to manage. This is something I would recommend to anyone planning on spending time in Morocco.

All around it was a memorable experience!
