FAQ
Is the price per person?
Yes. Prices are per person and get lower as your group grows. For example, 4 travellers pay €330 each, so €1,320 in total.
Will we share the van with other travellers?
No. This is a private tour: the van, the driver-guide and the itinerary are just for your group.
Is a guide included?
Yes. Your English- or French-speaking driver-guide stays with you for the whole tour, tells you about the places you visit and helps with everything on the way. At big sites such as Aït Ben Haddou you can also hire a licensed local guide on the spot (optional, paid locally).
What is the desert camp like?
You sleep in a private tent with proper beds and your own bathroom. Dinner is served at the camp, and on clear nights the sky is full of stars. Electricity and Wi-Fi can be limited.
Can we change the itinerary or add a night?
Of course – it’s your private tour. Tell us what you’d like (an extra night, a slower pace, another start or end point) and we’ll send you a price on WhatsApp.
Is this tour suitable for children?
Yes, families are welcome. The days include long drives, so we take regular breaks. Tell us the children’s ages when you book.
How do I book and pay?
Fill in the booking form or send us a WhatsApp message. There’s no online payment: we confirm availability on WhatsApp first, then you pay a 30% deposit via a payment link to secure your tour. The balance is paid on day 1, in cash or as agreed.
What’s the difference with your 3-day desert tour from Agadir?
Same desert, more time. The 4-day loop adds a night at Aït Ben Haddou and a night in the Draa Valley, so the drives are shorter and the return takes a different road.
