Hi, We're going to Morocco for Christmas and wonder if any of you can tell us how easy it would be to organise our own 4 day, 3 night tour of the dunes at Merzouga from Essouira, returning to Marrakech. I know it's a quick trip with a lot of driving but thats all the time we have available. I've had a few quotes from tour companies online and they seem pretty expensive, but I don't want to get there and have hassles, be ripped off, etc(although I'm sure that will happen at some point in the fortnight!). We'd like to spend a night in the desert if possible. Can anyone recommend any non-dodgy guides or operators? Thanks
