Overview

We are Ella and Omar - from the UK and Morocco - and together we run unique tours around Morocco! Itran Travel is family run business born out of our love for Morocco and a desire to share this beautiful country with travellers looking to discover the real Morocco.

This trip will take you to the Sahara that you have not seen before, away from the touristic routes and camps, to explore parts of the desert where the nomadic way of life remains largely unchanged.

The highlight of the trip will be spending the night under the stars in a completely secluded spot, away from any camp or tourist areas, where you will enjoy a candlelit dinner and the silence of the desert.

You will be accompanied by a guide who grew up in a semi nomadic family herding animals across this region of the desert, who will share with you stories of this way of life.
