NOTE
You can find cheap group desert tours offered in Marrakech, which often travel to destinations like the Sahara Desert or the Atlas Mountains. These tours are budget-friendly, but they may come with some trade-offs:
Crowded Buses: Cheap group tours typically have larger group sizes, which means that the buses can be crowded, sometimes with no AC. This can affect your comfort during the journey especially in the summer time. Meanwhile, you have a very high expectation not to go camel riding, as they could get booked up by other defferent tour groups.
Basic Accommodations: The accommodations on these tours may be basic or standard, shared, so don’t expect luxury or private.
Limited Flexibility: Cheap group tours often follow a fixed itinerary, which may not leave room for much flexibility or customization.
Shorter Duration: Some budget tours have shorter durations, so you may spend less time in the desert or at specific destinations.
Shopping: Too much shopping, drivers are not well paid and tend to take tourists to defferent shops for commissions.
To find these tours, you can inquire at local travel agencies in Marrakech or in Fes, check online travel platforms, or ask for recommendations from fellow travelers. It’s important to read reviews and do thorough research to ensure the tour operator is reputable and provides a safe experience. Additionally, be prepared for the possibility of crowded buses and basic amenities, and set your expectations accordingly if you choose a very cheap group desert tour.
