Thank you so much Mr Steve for your kind words! It was a pleasure helping you plan your stay and arranging the changes along the way so you could make the most of your time in Morocco.

I will gladly share your lovely feedback with Hafid, Mohamed, Hamid, and the whole team. We’re delighted that you enjoyed the camp, the camel ride, dinner, and music, as well as your fossil and hammam experiences.

We hope Lauren is feeling much better. Thank you for trusting us, and we would love to welcome you both back one day!

Warm regards,
Youssef

Thanks to Youssef for the advanced planning for our stay at Royal Tented Camp …and then his last minute assistance with scheduling a 2.5 day excursion from Merzouga to Marrakesh   And finally, when we had another last minute change, he arranged a detour to Errachadia and Erfoud for fossil excavation and hamman experience.    

Thank you as well
To Hafid for being very sensitive and flexible when Lauren had some stomach issues.   He was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. 

And Mohamed was a safe and friendly driver 

The tented camp was amazing with Hamid making sure we were comfortable. The camel ride the dinner the music the private showed and bathroom and the a/c all added up to a superior time for us
