Cutting through the often complicated maze of tours available, Ultimate Sahara offers three simple, clear, customisable trek options, ensuring you know exactly what to expect – bookable online in a few clicks.
Let us organise everything, including transport from Marrakech, Agadir or Ouarzazate and hotel stays before your trek, or just pick the bits you need, giving you more flexibility and freedom.
Our tours are organised by Hssein Liaichi (pictured), a nomad who grew up in the Sahara and knows the desert like the back of his hand, working with a trusted network of local guides, chefs, drivers and other specialists.
Meanwhile, our bookings centre based in London, England, ensures you get Moroccan hospitality backed up by European customer service.
