Best 5 Days Tour from Tangier to Merzouga with Begaa Tours
Listen. If you go to Morocco, all you need to know is: Begaa Tours. I took my family of 7 to Morocco this last summer (2023) and we had a 5 days tour with Begaa Tours booked based on the recommendation of a friend. our 5 days in Morocco were everyone’s favorite without exception. Our guides, Ali and Youssef quickly became like family to us. My kids were equally charmed by both men as they took the time to get to know our kids, joke with them, and fully include them in every aspect of the trip. My kids still talk about them both. They were patient, extremely knowledgeable and funny. We saw SO much of Morocco in such a short time. Of all the places I have visited in the world, Morocco completely stole my heart. I definitely want to go back and see, learn, and try the Moroccan cuisine again. Our trip included Moroccan cities as Tangier, Fez, city of apples, Atlas Mountains, Sahara Desert, and Marrakech to name only a few. I could have spent a full additional week, for sure. The food was amazing in virtually every place we went, the people were welcoming and kind and the history was rich and inspiring. If you are going to Spain, do yourself a favor and take the trip over to Morocco. Or just go to Morocco alone! It will not disappoint. And if you do, book a trip with no one other than Begaa Tours. They don’t have the almost perfect rating for anything. It was an amazing experience that will always be a favorite for our family. And ask for Ali and Youssef!!

Incredible experience of 5-days desert Tour from Tangier to Marrakech
Begaa Tours arranged a customized 5-days desert tour for me and my girlfriend that began as soon as we stepped off the boat in Tangier and ended with transport to the airport/bus station. Our guide, Ahmed, was very knowledgeable, very considerate, and a joy to talk to throughout the trip. Our driver Mustafa, was an excellent driver and made us feel safe and efficient throughout our travels. Despite speaking little English, he always made us feel welcome with a warm smile and a friendly attitude. Both were wonderful companions.
We start our Morocco desert tour from Cape Spartel, then we head to the blue city with its blue doors. the highlights of our trip are the luxury desert camp the market of dates.
At the end of our private tour, my girlfriend had an early morning flight out of Casablanca, while I was going to the amazing city of Taghazout to surf for a few days. Ahmed and Mustafa picked up my girlfriend at midnight from Marrakech, drove her to Casablanca, then drove back to Marrakech to take me to the bus station. I told both them and the manager, Hassan, that it was not necessary to pick me up the next morning, but they insisted. Begaa Tours will go out of their way to make your trip as convenient as possible!
All in all, we had an amazing experience in Morocco, and we owe much of it to Begaa.
