We are a licensed Marrakech operator (since 2008) running Sahara desert tours, day trips and Atlas Mountains treks with our own drivers, guides and trusted camps — not a reseller.
Morocco Desert Trips is a registered Moroccan travel company (License N44-17) headquartered in Marrakech. Since 2008 we have planned and operated Sahara desert tours, Marrakech day trips and Atlas Mountains trekking for guests from across the globe — more than 18 years on the same roads.
We do not resell other companies' seats. Every itinerary is designed and delivered by our own team: we choose the drivers, guides, guesthouses and desert camps ourselves. That keeps standards consistent, pricing transparent and advice grounded in what we see week after week.
Drivers, mountain guides and office staff are Moroccan and live in or near Marrakech. Many have driven the Marrakech–Merzouga corridor for ten years or more. We work in English, French, Arabic and Tamazight (Berber).
