Faqs

We recommend booking at least 3 to 4 months in advance if your travel falls during peak season (Spring/Autumn), especially if you want to secure the best desert camps and specific Riad accommodations.

Yes, absolutely! Every tour is private, allowing you to fully customize your itinerary. Whether you prefer more time in the desert or wish to visit the Atlantic coast before returning, we can tailor the route to your interests.

The most popular desert tours are 3 to 4 days. The 3-day tour is the minimum needed to reach the major Erg Chebbi dunes in Merzouga and return comfortably to Marrakech. Shorter tours often go to Zagora, which has smaller dunes.

Our drivers will drop you off at the nearest accessible point to your Riad/hotel (as cars are restricted inside the medina). We recommend using an official guide or your Riad staff for initial navigation assistance within the city walls.

While rare, snow can occasionally affect the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2260m) in winter. Our drivers are experienced in mountain driving and will always prioritize your safety, adjusting the route or timing if needed.

Absolutely. Please inform us of any dietary restrictions (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc.) at the time of booking, and we will ensure the hotels and desert camps are prepared for your needs.

Most standard tours focus on the Desert and Imperial Cities (like Fez). However, you can easily customize your tour to include coastal towns like Essaouira or Agadir.
