A well rounded and wholesome experience, highly recommend! - Highly recommend this trip! Samira, our guide, was professional and well mannered. She informed us what to expect on the trip and made sure everything was clear. Every single part of it was well organised and undertaken with care. From the women's argan oil production cooperative which included tea and bread and dips, as well as lots of information on the argan oil extraction and its products, to the camel ride, dinner and show.
I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the camel ride, but I cannot begin to describe how peaceful and enjoyable it was! Riding along in the dessert at sunset was truly amazing. What an experience! Shakira (my camel) was very comfortable to ride. Although Eidda behind me was quite cheeky and was getting close - I think she liked me :) Mustafa was a lovely guide and made us feel at ease on the ride as well as taking some beautiful pics of us with the backdrop of the sunset. Once we arrived there, we put on some traditional morocaan attire and headscarf - they smelled so clean and fresh, I was very impressed.
Next we went for dinner, where we were greeted with a trio playing music on traditional instruments. The smell of the tagines and moroccan delights were very inviting and set the mood. We had harira soup and bread for starters, vegetables, chicken peas and couscous next, then some chicken tagine and lastly a dessert (basbousa) and tea. The ambience was stunning and very welcoming.
After dinner we moved areas to where the fire show would take place.
Absolutely mind-blowing! Lots of people enjoyed participating in a dance around a circle and the vibes were very jolly and relaxing! Although reading many reviews, it mentioned to take extra.layers/ wrap up warm, it wasn't too cold and a thin passing shawl sufficed. It's also useful to note that at each point of the trip where we stopped, you needn't take everything wiith you in terms of bags; you could leave it on the minibus. For example, I took an extra bag with a couple of shawls, water bottle, sunhat etc but I left that on the minibus till I got to dinner..
My daughter also enjoyed it all، and this was a birthday celebration for her as she was turning 18! She wanted me to include how she loved it in this review, to show her appreciation too!
Still can't believe the price of this trip! Absolute bargain and well worth it - an all-encompassing experience for sure...there's no reason you shouldn't book up!
Thanks so much to Samira and team :)

Long - Driving out to the agafay dessert was stunning! Short but pleasant. You don’t really get to have a dinner under the stars because where you end up going it’s pretty lit up which was a bit of a bummer but overall the trip was a really fun time because of our great tour guide youppy and driver chraf. Very high energy so a lot of laughter towards the end

Great experience in Marrakech. - The pick up timing was smooth and on time. The guide was polite and the driver was impeccable. The food was quite nice. I didn’t ride the camel but my brother did and he had a blast. Managed to take video and pic of them. Wonderful experience and ended with watching pyrotechnic show as well as Berber singing and dancing activities

Amazing Dinner with Show after Camel Ride - I had an amazing tour with our guide Nouhaila. She was very welcoming. We took a camel ride with an incredible sunset view. Dinner was delicious, Berberi music and fire show were fun. Considering the price performance ratio, I totally recommend.

Best value tour ever! - This is the most value packed tour I’ve ever had - we were blown away by how much we got for such a low price, to the extent it was embarrassingly cheap and we tipped a couple of the participants but really the price could be double and you’d still feel it was a bargain!
The communication by Hamid was excellent, we were well managed and each experience was good.

Brilliant experience don’t hesitate to book - Four of us booked this trip and absolutely loved the whole thing. The camel ride was fun and beautiful in the sunset. The food and entertainment were excellent. The staff worked hard to ensure everyone enjoyed it. Our driver for the evening was Rashid who was an excellent driver very safe and he looked after us well. We couldn’t recommend this trip enough and unbelievably great value for money. Thank you all.

Amazing! - Abdella Tif, our guide was fantastic. He was very communicative and easy going. He explained all the stops, and some interesting factoids. He was very helpful at every step of the hourney. The entire experience was amazing and we would definitely recommend it, especially with Abdella.

Disappointing - Pick up was 40mins late argan experience too long and a bit pointless
Camel ride short as we were running late didn't get our tea
Dinner awful we got there late sat right at the back soup cold main course really late as the show which we couldn’t see had started we decided as a group to forget dessert as everyone left really disappointed
Our guide tried his best not his fault pointless waste of our time

Disgusting, misled, definitely no where as advertised. - Absolutely dreadful!!! Advertising completely misleading. Minibus hot and uncomfortable, oil stop was dirty, unhelpful and no where near as good as other places. Camel wait was so long we had to go to another place. The oli place wait and camel wait meant dinner not at sunset... Meal nothing like advert. It was in what looked like a back yard, conveyor belt, mass of tables under shed next to a cheap dirty swimming pool. I was sat in a plastic lounger for my meal... Entertainment dreadful. Please never go on this trip. Viator please stop using them, they are totally unacceptable in misleading people. I will be demanding my money back. The whole minibus extremely shocked at being so misleading. They do not deserve one single star but had to press to post
