4 Day Tour Marrakech to Fez

The balance is normally paid to the driver or Guide in Cash.

The deposit can be paid in a variety of ways: A Transfer to our bank account (Visa, Master Card, American Express) or via PayPal.

We can take euro, sterling, USD, or dirham, but otherwise Moroccan dirham is better everywhere else. And not everywhere in the country is equipped with a credit card machine so it is cash only.

On the shorter desert trips, you will require a small amount of cash, unless you intend to buy souvenirs such as a turban, a rug, or fossils. Small amounts will be used for tea/coffee/soft drinks, a few dirhams for the toilet and for tips. It is helpful to have small bills and change.

We recommend about 100 dirham a day according to satisfaction. On other tours it is recommended 10% of the total trip for your Driver-Guides, just so you know

Traditional camps: The tents themselves are modelled on the tents traditionally used by the local nomads, and to prevent the rain, sand and dust from entering, the walls and ceiling are lined. Sometimes the door is wooden but other camps hang a traditional goat hair blanket, or a woven Berber blanket or rug. There are wooden or metal bedsteads, clean sheets and pillowcases, blankets, electric light, a table and rugs on the floor. Each family or couple has their own tent and the bathroom facilities are shared with hot water provided by solar panels. There is a communal dining area. Luxury camps: The tents are made of a very different white and black material which is waterproof. These private tents are spacious and are equipped with king-sized beds. The furnishings are equally luxurious with beautiful metal lamps and there are large tables, mirrors and armchairs to relax in, and electric sockets. Each tent has its own bathroom, with a separate shower and toilet. Meals are eaten communally in a large, beautifully decorated, separate restaurant tent.

When we write to you, we send you a list of the accommodation and camps we work with. These are places where we know that we can rely on the quality and the service.

✓ Tagine: A slow-cooked stew typically made with meat (like lamb, chicken, or beef), vegetables, and a blend of aromatic spices. It's named after the clay pot it's cooked in.
✓ Couscous: A staple made from steamed wheat granules, often served with vegetables, meat (such as lamb or chicken), and a flavourful broth.
✓ Harira: A hearty soup, especially popular during Ramadan, made with tomatoes, lentils, chickpeas, and various spices. It often includes meat and is served with dates.
✓ Pastilla: A Savory and sweet pastry filled with pigeon or chicken, almonds, and spices, all wrapped in layers of thin pastry.
✓ Mechoui: Roasted lamb or goat, seasoned with various spices and slow-cooked until tender. It's often prepared during festive occasions.
✓ Kefta: Ground meat (usually beef or lamb) mixed with herbs and spices, shaped into small patties or skewers, and grilled.
✓ Briouat: Triangular pastries filled with a mixture of meat (often chicken or lamb), almonds, and spices, then fried until crispy.
