Absolutely amazing tour. The views on the way to the desert were beautiful and the desert experience was unforgettable. The food and accommodation everywhere was excellent. All this was made better by our amazing tour guide Ahmed.
Highly recommend Mhm Tours. The pricing was very reasonable for what we did in 6 days. Yusef was wonderful at arranging our Marrakech To Fes tour. He met all of our needs. It was the first time for us to do a desert trip, but they had all of our transportation completely arranged and beautiful, clean hotels for us to stay in, and a luxury desert camp which was the best!
Once we arrived, Yusef was also available to answer any questions and concerns we had. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed ourselves and are grateful for their assistance in planning the perfect trip for us.
