Bakabou Tour
Morocco, crafted by the people who call it home

About Bakabou Tour

Bakabou Tour is a Marrakech-based travel and events company designing private, tailor-made journeys across Morocco. We plan every trip ourselves, from your first message to your final transfer, around your pace, your interests and the experience you want to take home.

We welcome independent travelers, couples, families and groups, and we organize private events and corporate incentive trips. Tours are operated by Art Desert Tours, our parent company.

Our story

Bakabou Tour is run by the Bakabou family, a Berber family born and raised in Morocco and at home among the dunes and palm groves of the Sahara. We started with one belief: the best way to discover Morocco is with someone who truly knows it.

Over the years we have built close relationships with local guides, drivers, riad owners and desert camps across the country. Today that network lets us offer what a standard package tour cannot: genuine access, real people and a Morocco that feels personal. Meet our team.

    The Sahara Desert Camp was the Highlight!

    Our 10-day tour from Tangier with Art Desert Tours exceeded all expectations. The entire trip was well-organized, but the absolute highlight was the 2 days in the Sahara Desert. The camel trek at sunset was breathtaking, and sleeping under the stars in the desert camp was something I will never forget. The rest of the itinerary was just as good—loved exploring the medinas in Fes and the blue city of Chefchaouen. Our guide was excellent, very friendly, and a safe driver. Thank you to the whole team for a fantastic holiday!

    Une expérience inoubliable au cœur du désert !

    Nous avons eu la chance de faire un Circuit de 7 jours de Marrakech à Merzouga jours avec Art Desert Tours, et ce fut absolument magique ! Dès la réservation, tout a été parfaitement organisé avec une équipe très réactive et professionnelle. Notre guide/chauffeur, était exceptionnel : très sympathique, passionné et d'une grande connaissance sur l'histoire, la culture berbère et les paysages traversés. Il a su rendre chaque étape captivante, du Haut Atlas aux dunes de Merzouga. Les hébergements étaient confortables et typiques, et la nuit dans le campement sous les étoiles restera gravée dans nos mémoires. La balade à chameau au coucher du soleil sur les dunes était tout simplement surréaliste. Je recommande vivement Art Desert Tours à tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir le Maroc de façon authentique, sans mauvaise surprise. Une agence sérieuse et des souvenirs plein la tête ! Merci à toute l'équipe.

    Ein perfektes Wüstenabenteuer

    Wir haben die 7-tägige Tour von Marrakesch nach Merzouga gebucht und sie hat alle Erwartungen übertroffen. Die Höhepunkte waren Aït Ben Haddou, die Dades-Schlucht und natürlich die Sahara. Unter dem Sternenhimmel in der Wüste zu schlafen, war ein wahr gewordener Traum. Unser Reiseleiter war fantastisch – freundlich, professionell und begeistert von seiner Kultur. Wenn Sie eine authentische Berber-Erfahrung machen möchten, buchen Sie bei Art Desert Tours!

    Un voyage romantique dans les dunes

    Notre lune de miel avec ArtDesertTours a été tout simplement magique ! Ce circuit organisé par cette agence a dépassé nos attentes. Chaque détail était pensé pour créer des moments inoubliables : les couchers de soleil sur les dunes, le dîner aux chandelles en tête-à-tête dans le désert, la soirée musicale berbère... Le personnel d'ArtDesertTours a été aux petits soins, et le campement luxueux était d'un confort parfait. Si vous cherchez une expérience romantique et aventureuse, nous recommandons sans hésiter ArtDesertTours !

    マラケシュからメルズーガ砂漠までの忘れられない7日間の旅

    友人たちと私は最近、マラケシュからメルズーガまでの7日間の素晴らしい冒険から戻ったばかりです。"Art Desert Tours" を強くお勧めします。最初から最後まで、体験は完璧で、本物で、まさに魔法のようでした。 長期間のツアー予約には少し不安もありましたが、出発前の旅行会社とのやり取りは素晴らしく、質問には全て迅速に対応いただき、大きな安心感を得られました。マラケシュでのピックアップ時から、私たちは信頼できる手配に預けられていると実感しました。 この旅を特別なものにした大きな要因は、ガイド兼ドライバーのモバラク氏です。彼は単なる運転手ではなく、旅を真に彩る素晴らしい同行者でした。ハイアトラス山脈からサハラ砂漠に至るまで、通過した各地域の歴史、文化、ベルベルの伝統について驚くほど博識でした。息をのむようなパノラマスポットでは喜んで停車し、写真撮影に付き合ってくれただけでなく、思い出に残る一杯のお茶に招待してくれ、有名なモロッコのホスピタリティを垣間見せてくれました。 旅程はドライブと観光の絶妙な組み合わせだった。確かに長距離移動はあるが、緑豊かな渓谷や劇的なトドラ渓谷から映画のようなアイット・ベン・ハドゥのカスバまで、息をのむほど多様で美しい風景が時間を忘れさせてくれた。間違いなくハイライトはメルズーガ砂漠への到達だった。夕暮れ時のエルグ・シェビ砂丘へのラクダトレッキングは、まさに絵に描いたような、しかし実際はそれ以上に圧倒的な幻想的な体験でした。星空の下で美味しい食事と生ドラム音楽を楽しみながら砂漠キャンプで一夜を過ごすことは、決して忘れられない思い出となりました。 アート・デザート・ツアーズが手配した宿泊施設は最高級でした。リヤドやゲストハウスは清潔で快適、魅力にあふれ、砂漠キャンプも驚くほど設備が整い、素晴らしい食事ともてなしが提供されました。価格に見合う価値を十分に感じました。 個人的な気配りとプロフェッショナルなサービス、そしてモロッコ文化への深い理解を提供するツアー会社をお探しなら、アート・デザート・ツアーズ以外にありません。私たちのグループにとって10点満点の体験であり、すでに次回も同社での旅行を計画中です。一生の思い出をありがとう、チームの皆様に感謝します。

    amazing weekend Experience in Morocco

    Booking our art tour with Art Desert Tours was incredibly smooth and efficient. Their website was clear, and the staff was responsive to our questions. The tour itself was the highlight. Our knowledgeable guide blended the stunning desert landscape with fascinating insights into local art and culture. Visiting remote artist studios and witnessing a sunset over the dunes was a truly unique and inspiring experience. It was far more than a simple tour; it was a deep dive into the creative soul of the desert. Highly recommended for art lovers and adventurers seeking something authentic and memorable.
