Just amazing itinerary! the Tangier Desert tour is a must-do! After wonderful week discovering Spain, we started our african adventure fresh off the ferry, and every day was packed with something new. From the energy of Tangier to the soul-stirring stillness of the Sahara, this tour had it all. I was a bit worried about the logistics, especially coming from Europe, but everything was smooth sailing.

Highly recommend this if you’re looking for a true Moroccan experience with zero hassles.

Just got back from the Tangier Desert Tour and I’m still buzzing! Kicked off in Tangier right after hopping off the ferry from Spain. Morocco hits you with its vibrancy right away. The cities, the chaos, the colors! Then the Sahara – it’s like stepping onto another planet. Traveling through Morocco’s imperial cities was like a live history lesson, but way cooler. And the quiet of the Sahara nights? Unreal. For anyone flying in or taking that ferry over, this trip is a no-brainer. It’s all planned out beautifully, so you can just soak it all up without sweating the small stuff.
