EXCELLENT Based on 68 reviews Posted on JLSOTOVerified Intense and joyful experience We spent seven days in Morocco. The first and last in Marrakech, where the first day Hassan showed us the city in perfect Spanish. The other five were spent with Omar, whom we felt as part of the family from the first moment. The trip was perfectly organized. The riads we stayed in in Marrakech, Ourzazate and Dades, lovely clean and cozy hotels, the jaima next to the dunes in Merzouga, luxury. All in all, the highlight of the trip was Omar’s continued attention, and the amount of information he provided. Throughout the trip he explained everything we saw, and we kept riddling him with questions about any aspect of Moroccan culture, which he answered profusely and kindly. That's priceless. I wish we could enjoy that privilege on every trip.Posted on Patricia VVerified Travel by 4*4 We travelled with a 4*4 and a driver! It was great! Nice trip.

Wonderful experience , personal, very professional and always pending I will hire you again for upcoming visits to MoroccoPosted on BoardingPass555304Verified I recommend this company We hired Sahara 4X4 services to do a 3-day tour 6 people from Marrakech to Ouzud, Ourika and Essaouira where we spent a few days and transfers from the airport to Riyadh in Marrakech and from Essaouira to the airport. We were delighted, they were very attentive at all times and offered to meet any need for transfer beyond what was contracted. They were very punctual and even worried that on the last day we might pick up an object that one of us had forgotten in the Riyadh of Marrakech. Thank you very much to Said and Hassan and Sahara 4 x 4. We will count on you for upcoming trips in Morocco.Posted on Alberto AVerified Private circuit Atlas and desert We are a couple with 2 children, aged 11 and 5.

This is the fourth time my environment has trusted Sahara4x4. In our last experience, from April 1 to 10, 2025, we traveled four people: Mari Cruz, Manoli, Diego and I, Antonino. From the first contact with Amar, responsible for Sahara4x4, his friendliness, efficiency and professionalism translated into a spectacular circuit that spanned Fez, the Merzouga Desert and Marrakech. We travelled 1500 km through Morocco in a comfortable and suitable Toyota Land Cruiser from Sahara4x4. Our driver, Hassan, who picked us up at Fez airport and sent us away in Marrakech, proved to be a friendly, close person and an excellent driver. In conclusion, I would like to express my sincerest congratulations to Amar and Hassan. These comments reflect our genuine experience and lack any hidden interest.Posted on manoli gVerified An unforgettable experience Diego Hernández and Manoli García de Cáceres, Spain. We stayed from April 1 to 10 in Morocco, with Sahara 4x4. An unforgettable experience.

In Jaimas in the desert, riding in dromedary, cohabiting with desert nomads. Over 1500 km and not a slight dizziness. My sincere congratulations on the organization of the trip to Sahara 4x4.
