Wonderful trip to desert with dashing driver
fultondiana, May 2022
Our trip to the Zagora desert was a wonderful experience. The camel rides and glamping under the stars was great, but the crown jewel of our adventure was our charming driver, Youssef. If you book this trip, definitely request Youssef. He was funny, engaging, informative and responsive to all our needs and requests. Despite the craziness of the other drivers on the road, I felt safe with him behind the wheel. And he speaks six languages! We spent hours on the road and loved every minute.
