“My family and I (4 adults) took a 3 day, 2 night tour in mid January from Fes to Marrakech, with excursions to Erg Chebbi and a night in the desert, Ouarzazate, Todra, and Dades Gorges. It is a wonderful way to see the country in a short amount of time. The accommodations were great, with one night in a Berber tent in the Sahara, and one night at a hotel in the Dades Gorge.”
