We had a wonderful 3 day tour from Fes to Marrakech with our kind and friendly driver/guide Yahya. The highlight of the trip was definitely spending the night on the... read more desert.

  Yahya was great and reached out to me when I had a last minute booking problem. All i can say is i definitely will look to book with him next... read more time in fes, forever grateful for his generosity and fairness! He is a mensch, truly deserves the name perfect travel.

  This experience was a 10/10, two-thumbs up! 2nd week of September 2022, I knew it would be a good sign when the weather was cooperating, and as anticipated, from start... read more to finish, both Yahya and Abdull were professional, courteous, and transparent with expectations and activities.

Starting in Fes I was received promptly at my hotel, welcomed with an air conditioned van - very well kept and clean. Entire drive was smooth, and felt like VIP service. Breakfast followed in Ifran - a little Switzerland in the desert where the air turns fresh, and the feeling of adventure kicks in as you step into another world, as if Europe took a turn south and simply landed in Morocco. Conversation was always lively with Yahya, with no difficulty with my American (Texas) English but also saw his many languages come into play throughout the trip - Spanish, Italian, Chinese, and French among others while navigating local transactions and simply connecting with people.

I expected to enjoy the monkeys in the forest but did not expect to find the guide stepping away and returning with peanuts- resulting in hand feeding the macaques! Barrels of monkeys on the ground and in the trees, this was 1,000 times better than any zoo I've ever been to. Fact is - this was just tip of the iceberg, as we continued on our trip, stopping for restroom/walking breaks as often as needed/requested, we traversed canyons with ancient forests and navajo-type dwellings; learned about the local people and business; encountered fossils/dinosaurs; and prepared for an unforgettable desert experience.

And Voila - we arrived to the desert with zero trepidation and no clue what to expect. And y'all ... Merzouga's camels!! The camel experience is like none other, where the only thing missing was Aladdin himself. The ride was easy but every turn over a new sand dune revealed something more and more promising about this nomadic land. The photos alone made the entire trip worth it, but arrival to the Berber camp was stepping into a desert fairytale. I was hoping for glamping, expecting camping, and instead, received a 5-star experience far surpassing all expectations I may have had before arrival. Drinks, dinner *shoutout to chef, were quickly followed with a surreal evening by the fire with local music and great company. It's like a dream, drifting off under a million stars after a night of magic with a warm breeze drifting across the camp and simply absorbing this Saharan way of life.

And then ... a BEAUTIFUL tent (think honeymoon-lovely) and even more beautiful sunrise- in a hammock, by the camels, next to the dunes - the world becomes quiet.
This was a moment of perfect nothingness and everything at the same time, and as the camp began to stir, I was slowly reintroduced to reality with mint tea, coffee, water, and a full Moroccan breakfast. On departure my heart left full - the return experience was not quite as easy knowing the Sahara was in my rearview.

It was my first, but certainly not my last experience in Morocco or with Yahya and the Fez Sahara Tours team. Thank you Yahya! Blessed beyond measure, I’m greatful to have chosen THIS tour with you leading.

  Wow, what an amazing trip we had through Fes all thanks to Mohammed! He carried us around the narrow streets with his charm and energy and made us feel so... read more safe, comfortable and welcome. We trusted him to show us what he believed to be the heart of Fes and he successfully did just that. He naturally explained everything so clearly and is a great addition in bargaining with the locals! By the end of the day, we really had a feel for all the beauty Fes has to offer. If you ever travel to this quaint city, choose the inspiring and wonderful Mohammed as a tour guide, you won’t regret it!

  Super helpful driver ! Fluent in English , french , Arabic and other languages ! Professional ! Would recommend to all my friends coming to Morocco

  Mohamed was the absolute best guide we could’ve asked for! So friendly and helpful from the first minute, he made sure to show us Fès in all its beauty, was... read more so patient and fun to have around. It felt like hanging out with a friend, we felt very safe and loved our day with him. We started with our own personal driver who drove us around the outskirts of town with the most amazing viewing points, then we continued our day through the medina. We’ve learnt, seen, experienced and tasted so much on this day, it was easily my favorite day of the entire Morocco trip. We’re leaving Fès not only in love with this city, but also with a new friend. Cannot wait to be back!
