We just come back from Morroco where we took a 2 day tour to the desert. We left Casablanca and drove to Zagora for a camel ride and overnight camp.
We paid $1,700 canadian dollars,(2 days) well overpriced.
We were supposed to have a driver and an English speaking guide. The driver spoke NO english, and the driver barely could communicate with us; we drove for 11 hours; guide could not explain anything about the culture, the different towns we pass trough, nothing at all; it was a terrible experience.We learn nothing about Morroco.
The camel ride and the overnight camp in the desert was beautiful; once in a lifetime everyone should do.
The next morning we were left to wait for an hour on the side of the road, our van was late to pick us up. We drove back to Casablanca, this time it took only 8 hours. They stop in Marrakesh for 20 minutes, and gave us time to barely have lunch; they were in a rush to get back to Casablanca. Once we arrive to Casablanca, they were lost and could not find our hotel(the same one they picked us up from) we drove around the city for 1 hour or more, both of them arguing in arabic about google maps.
The guide told us that he did not have a License, he was a student; he sat in the back of the van because he was not allowed to seat in the front in certain areas. We did not understand what was going on.
We were very dissapointed; we expected a great service and a great experience.
