Private Tours
About Our Private Morocco Tours
Completely private. Your vehicle and driver are exclusively for your group. We never combine separate bookings into one trip. You can also adjust the route, pace, and stops as you go.
Yes. We can start your tour from Marrakech, Fes, Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier, Agadir, or any other city in Morocco. Just let us know where you will be and we will plan the best route from there.
Absolutely. Every tour can be adjusted. Want to spend longer at Ait Ben Haddou? Add a day in the desert? Skip a stop? Just tell us and we will adapt the route. For fully custom trips, see our tailor-made private tours.
Prices vary by route, group size, number of days, and accommodation level. As a guide, standard private tours start from around $150 per person per day for groups of 2-4, with lower per-person rates for larger groups. Our 3-day Sahara tour starts from $275 per person. Send us your plans for a detailed, itemised quote.
Typically: private 4x4 vehicle with driver, accommodation, daily breakfast, Sahara camel trek and desert camp (if on the route), hotel pickup and drop-off, fuel and parking, and bottled water. Lunches, drinks, tips, and travel insurance are not included unless specified. Every quote clearly lists what is and is not included.
Sahara Desert
Sahara Desert & Merzouga Questions
Yes. Our Sahara tours include an overnight stay at a desert camp in Erg Chebbi with dinner, breakfast, and a sunset camel trek. Standard and luxury camp options are available.
October to April is most comfortable — typically 15-25 degrees Celsius in the day. Summer months (June-August) reach 40 degrees plus in Merzouga. We run tours year-round and will always tell you honestly what to expect for your travel window.
The camel trek is a gentle 45-60 minute ride into the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunset. If you prefer not to ride a camel, we can arrange a 4x4 transfer to the camp instead. The camels are well cared for and the ride is suitable for most fitness levels.
Our standard camps offer private tents with real beds, shared bathroom facilities, and a central dining tent. A luxury upgrade is available with en-suite private bathrooms and premium furnishings. Both include dinner, breakfast, and Berber music around the campfire.
Warm layers for evening and morning, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, comfortable walking shoes, a small backpack for overnight essentials, a camera or phone with a power bank, and personal toiletries. In winter (Dec-Feb), temperatures at night can drop below 5 degrees Celsius, so bring a warm jacket.

We specialise in private tours, but we also offer small group tours on fixed departure dates. Group tours are limited to 8-12 travellers and follow popular routes like Marrakech to Fes via the Sahara.
Yes. You can hire a private driver with a vehicle by the day or for multiple days. You set the route and schedule — the driver handles the driving, navigation, and local knowledge. Fuel, tolls, and parking are included.
Our drivers speak English, French, and Arabic. Some also speak Spanish or Italian. We match your driver to your preferred language when possible.
Yes. We pick up from all major Moroccan airports — Marrakech Menara, Fes-Saiss, Casablanca Mohammed V, Rabat-Sale, Tangier Ibn Battouta, and Agadir-Al Massira. Just send us your flight details and we will be there.
Booking & Payment
Booking, Payment & Cancellation
Most bookings are confirmed entirely over WhatsApp. A small deposit (typically 20-30%) secures your dates. We will send you all details before you pay anything.
Yes. After the deposit, the remainder can be paid in cash on arrival, or by bank transfer, Wise, or PayPal beforehand — your choice.
The Moroccan Dirham (MAD) is the local currency. We quote prices in USD for convenience, but you can pay in MAD, EUR, or USD cash on arrival, or by bank transfer / Wise / PayPal before the tour.
We recommend booking at least 2-4 weeks in advance, especially during peak season (October-April). For larger groups or luxury tours, 1-2 months ahead is ideal. Last-minute bookings are often possible — just ask.
Free cancellation up to 14 days before departure with full deposit refund. Between 7-14 days, the deposit is held as credit for a future trip. Under 7 days, the deposit is non-refundable. We are flexible with date changes when possible.
Travel Logistics
Safety, Visas & Practical Information
Morocco is one of the safest countries in Africa for tourists. Violent crime against visitors is extremely rare. As with any destination, normal precautions apply — keep valuables secure, avoid poorly lit areas at night, and be aware of common scams in busy tourist areas. Our drivers know the safest routes and areas.
Citizens of the US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia, and many other countries do not need a visa for stays up to 90 days. A passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date is required. Check with your local Moroccan embassy if you are unsure.
Yes, children are welcome on our tours. We adjust the pace for families, choose family-friendly accommodation, and can shorten driving days. The camel trek is safe for children when supervised. Let us know the ages of your children and we will plan accordingly.
Yes. We organise private desert tours starting from Casablanca and Rabat, as well as Marrakech and Fes. Just let us know where you will be and we will plan the best route to the Sahara from there.
Yes. We offer luxury Morocco tours with 5-star riads and premium desert camps with en-suite bathrooms. We also run small group tours on fixed departure dates for travellers who prefer a shared-cost experience. Private driver hire is also available.
