The tour was absolutely delightful. There was a nice balance between culture and adventure within the six days. We bartered our goods in the vibrant souks, saw historical sights, and even the blue-street charm of Chefchaouen. Hakim, our driver, was outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, and made for a smooth and enjoyable trip. Highly recommended!
This tour from Tangier to Marrakech was really above all my expectations. Well-balanced, plunging deep into cultural immersion in places like Chefchaouen and Fes, finding breathtaking natural landscapes like the Atlas Mountains and Sahara Desert. Riding a camel through golden dunes at sunset in Merzouga is just magic and will stay in my memory forever. Indeed, each day was passed with different experiences-from the wanderings around ancient medinas to the revelations of kasbahs hidden from the world. That really made the journey one of great enrichment.
Super tour all around. The sites were simply amazing, the guides all very knowledgeable and lodging was way above what we expected, often 4 or 5 star hotels. Every day was packed with activities that added to the adventure. Would highly recommend the tour and the tour company.
This travel company simply made it all work with the best 3-day desert adventure from Marrakech via Merzouga. Beautifully scheduled, from the drive across the Atlas Mountains to the enchanting Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou—no stop was boring. The highlight of this trip was a sunset camel trek across the Erg Chebbi dunes combined with an unforgettable night under the stars at a luxury desert camp while listening to traditional Berber music. Comfortable accommodations, a very knowledgeable guide, and every moment was a perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like an authentic Moroccan desert experience!

Excellent trip! We covered a lot of ground from Marrakech all the way up north to the Mediterranean coast with stops in between. Enjoyed every minute! B
What can I say...this tour was amazing. Never thought I'd see the sights I saw on this trip, never thought any of this would be possible in my lifetime. Egypt seemed too far, too exotic, too expensive. As soon as I saw the listing for this tour, it suddenly seemed like it might be possible.
We had reservations about going for sure. We have kids, 10 and 13. There's a war in Israel. It's summer in a very hot part of the world. Do we need Yellow Fever vaccines? Will the food make us sick? Americans kept telling us it would be too dangerous to go.
None of that turned out to be a problem. Egypt was very very safe. There are police and military personnel on the streets and at cultural sites. I saw no crime, no people sleeping on the streets. No people panhandling. Going to ATMs to get cash was very safe and easy. We went everywhere from big tourist sites to small neighborhoods. Food was great and we never got sick. We didn't drink the tap water, but bottled water and soft drinks are everywhere. It was hot, but air conditioning, pools, and headscarves manage this.
I'll say this again, because I have heard a lot about this:
Egypt is safe.
It's kind.
It's welcoming.
People are excited that you're visiting from America.
The food is great, and safe.
The hotels were amazing:
Steigenberger in Giza is clean, beautiful, has a nice restaurant with free breakfast, and has a view of the pyramids, which is pretty wild.
Movenpick in Aswan is spectacular, taking up a large portion of an island in the middle of the Nile, with pools and sustainable farms on-site.
The Jaz cruise up the Nile was really nice, with good food and comfortable quarters.
The Continental hotel in Hurghada was seriously ridiculously lavish, with a private beach on the Red Sea, giant pool, a dozen restaurants, and a shopping corridor.
And the Ramses Hilton in Cairo is clean, elegant, and right in the middle of the action of downtown Cairo.
We saw a million places from ancient Egypt I never thought we'd see. I can't overstate how incredible it is to stand in front of the Sphinx, the pyramids of Giza, Luxor temple, Kom Ombo, and especially the incredible monuments at Abu Simbel...this is an optional extra tour, and a bit expensive, as it's a whole day trip, but my goodness, it's worth the long drive. Incredible.
Overall, this trip had probably the most OMG moments I've had on a trip. And I've been to some pretty spectacular places, including India, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Peru (Machu Picchu), the UK, and more.
Please trust me and take the trip. Ignore the warnings. It's so worth it.
The trip was very well planned and executed. We really enjoyed hotels that the local travel specialist chose for us. The driver was very knowledgeable, kind and professional, we always felt safe with him. Highlights were numerous, but Sahara probably stands out as an exceptional experience.
My room mate and I made the decision to embark on this adventure, and we both agree that it was without a doubt the most memorable experience of our lives. Mohamed, our tour guide, was really kind and helpful during our time together, and he took very good care of us. The desert is a breathtaking and beautiful place to visit. The accommodations were wonderful, and they even had a pool. Along the route, there were a number of rest spots with restrooms and refreshment areas . We had a great time participating in the many outdoor activities that were available, particularly the horseback riding, hiking, and quad biking. I highly recommend them!
Die abwechslungsreiche, gut geplante und dennoch individuelle Reiseroute bei der wir in die Kultur und Landschaft Marokkos eintauchen konnten, hat mich vllig berzeugt.Zweifelsohne die beste Tour die ich gemacht habe!Wir haben unmittelbar eine weitere Reise bei Sirius Adventures gebucht. Und wir freuen uns riesig auf die Gelegenheit die verschiedenen Teile Marokkos von den Bergen ber die Wste bis hin zum Strand bald erneut zu besuchen.
