erg chebbi tour
 
Hi All
I am looking into the 3 day desert tour to erg chebbi from Marakech. The tour via viator is 130 euro and via desert majesty tours is 300 euro per person
1. Is there a huge difference in quality ? From + reviews and similar itinerary(same spots, tents), the tour groups of viator and desert majesty look like carbon copies. Other than the price I am not seeing the difference. I guess fellow fodorites experiences with these tours in the dunes will decide for me.
Suggestions?

best,Jseneca

I know Desert Majesty and they have a good reputation. Viatour is an agency that operates in many countries and subcontracts to locals.

You've not provided any information on the Viatour offering but I can imagine it's what I call a 'sardine minibus' tour similar to those reported in the links below. If this is OK for what you want I'd suggest you wait until you are in Marrakech and book it on the spot, the minibuses leave every day.
