Read moreMy mom, sister, and I recently visited Fes, Marrakech, and the Sahara. The car was very spacy and had air conditioning. Walid was our driver. He is an amazing driver (I felt very safe in the car with him driving.), makes plenty of rest stops for things like bathroom and coffee breaks, lunches, and photo ops as well as exploring places along the way. He is also very knowledgeable about both Berber and Moroccan history, culture, trades, food, traditional festivals and clothing, and geography. He is very friendly and kind as well. For example, when he heard I wanted to buy little bottles to put sand from the Sahara in as a souvenir he found a good place to buy them for a decent price and even collected some sand in a water bottle for me and my sister. Then, when we found out that I had booked a CTM bus for 2:00 am instead of 2:00 pm (having gotten confused because of military time being the standard here) he still stood by his offer to take us to the CTM station in Marrakech. Overall, great experience!...

I thought about just renting a car and going myself but I'm so glad I didn't and went with Trek Morocco Desert instead.

We got to see a women cooperative that makes honey, oil and other Moroccan products.
I'd definitely recommend anyone who wants to go to Paradise Valley to go with Trek Morocco Desert as they give you the real Morocco and meet such...
