We had a fantastic 4 day trip with Majid. Sun Trails did a great job and was very flexible with our itinerary. Thanks everyone for a very memorable adventure! Thank you, Majid!

Could not have wished for a better team to take care of us in Morocco. Everything was so fluent and we felt very welcome each moment and at each spot. I'll add here a photo of one of my favourite moments. Photo of the Moon, before the sunrise. After sleeping under the stars.

Traveling alone internationally with a 7-year-old for the first time had me a bit nervous, but Sun Trails made our week-long visit to Morocco a flawless and unforgettable experience (we toured the south of the country). Daoud was an exceptional driver through all sorts of terrain while also being so kind, patient, and personable to my daughter and me. The accommodations, food, and activities throughout were excellent in terms of value. I would recommend Sun Trails to anyone who is looking to have an incredible time in Morocco.

We had the trip of a lifetime with Cristian's company. We feel like we made life long friends with his amazing guides who are knowledgeable, kind, and excellent at their profession. The hotels that he chose were boutique gems and our itinerary was so well executed. We even had some surprise desert picnics! The attention to detail and level of customer service surpassed our expectations. I would highly recommend anyone visiting Morocco to do so with this company.

Majid was our guide for a six day tour through across the Atlas Mountains, in the Dra Valley, and the desert. Let's face it. Six days is a long time to spend with anybody, especially someone you've never met, but we had an absolutely great time and were genuinely sorry to part. Logistics were handled flawlessly and being guided through the region the way we were gave us a chance to be exposed to many, many wonderful things we would otherwise might not have discovered in months had we tried to do it on our own. It truly was the trip of a lifetime. This is a very beautiful and unique part of the world and I literally can't imagine a better guide. The trip was rigorous at times, but tremendously rewarding. Majid knows the life of the people in this region intimately having been raised in a nomad family and his answers to our many question added a priceless dimension to our trip. We loved the landscape, but we also loved the people and Majid was a great ambassador for us.

We had a great off-the-beaten-track experience with our guides Majid, Daoud, Leila and rest of the crew. The whole trip was well organized and our wishes were handled with care. Our group of adventurers got some very real local experience. We had too many interesting experiences to describe but of course the Western Sahara desert hike was superb (but I would recommend definitely 3 days instead of 2 days what we did) but actually the best was the hike in the deserty mountains with staying overnight in large tent carried by donkey... beautiful landscapes, very different actually, over the hills and through the valleys and dried-out rivers. One evening dinner was a goat bought from local nomads once arrived at the camping site. End of the hike was beautiful pools of water to swim in. Thank you Sun-Trails crew, it was great!

I highly recommend Sun Trails for your Morocco adventure. Our guide, Mustafa, was top notch and an incredibly fun and knowledgeable person for our 6-day journey from Marrakesh to Fes (via Merzouga). Sun Trails has some fantastic vehicles that can get you through the toughest terrain (including through sand dunes). The staff seem to know someone or something cool to see (or something delicious to eat) in just about every town on your journey. We felt safe and secure with our wonderful guide and friend. Yes, a private tour with Sun Trails is going to cost a bit more than the ones you may stumble across online. But trust me when I say you get what you pay for with Sun Trails. I’ve already recommended them several times to friends and strangers.

Sun Trails is fantastic - and Cristian is patient and brilliant - and Daoud was a fantastic guide - and both of them are really good people too. We loved how much the loved Morocco, and they made us love Morocco even more too. We had a wonderful time in the mountains, in the dessert, and on the beach - you too should go to Morocco, and you should use Sun Trails for your trip and ask for Daoud for your guide!

I wish I could give this review more than 5 stars. We are doing a world tour - and this trip with Suntrails (with Daoud as our guide) is by far the highlight of the entire trip. We did a 4 day tour to the Erg Chigaga dunes in the Sahara and it was incredible. The accommodations, sights and car were great but what made this trip so amazing for us was our guide, Daoud. In order to see the things we wanted, we had several long days in the car and we did the trip with 2 small children (2 and 5). Daoud was fantastic with our kids - playing with them and entertaining them and the kids are still asking me to see him 2 months later. We decided on the "dreamer" level of accommodation with an upgrade to a luxury tent for the night in the Sahara. I deliberated a lot about which level/price point to choose but what we chose was perfect. The tagines were amazing and the riads were beautiful. Cristian took care (and a lot of emails) to help me include everything I requested out of this trip: camel riding, adventure off the beaten track, hiking to a kasbah, etc. Our guide, Daoud even walked to the next closest desert camp to find us a sand board one morning. I could go on and on about this experience but I will just say that I have recommended it to anyone I have spoken to about Morocco. I never repeat trips but I am planning a future trip to come back to Morocco just to do another trip with Suntrails to explore more of the country off the beaten track.
