Your website is a powerful way of showcasing what sets you apart from the competition. A professionally designed website is crucial for attracting and impressing your preferred clients, and for clearly communicating your brand and offerings. Knowing this, Come To The Sahara approached Hop Studios in February 2024 to update their website to better highlight their unique offerings.

Come To The Sahara is a Moroccan-owned and operated company with Canadian administrative support. They offer one-of-a-kind tours in and around Morocco and the Sahara Desert. Founded in 2013 by Moroccan-raised Imad, Come To The Sahara has been helping adventurers explore and experience the stunning wonders of Morocco and the Sahara Desert. Their commitment to showcasing Moroccan culture and supporting the local economy sets them apart from other tour companies.

Come to the Sahara needed a website that would convey this distinctive passion and attract their ideal travellers. By clearly highlighting their unique selling points, we helped them quickly communicate the exceptional value of their tours.

We began by upgrading their existing WordPress CMS to enhance functionality and improve the overall user experience. This included removing unnecessary plugins, updating PHP from v7 (old, security risks) to 8.3 (current, secure, efficient), and refreshing their WordPress themes. These technical updates not only boosted site performance and security but also simplified ongoing maintenance so their overall annual bill would be lower.  We also provided training for the Come To The Sahara team, giving them, where possible, more ability to manage updates independently.

Along the way, we implemented several smaller but impactful improvements. For example, we widened the tours dropdown menu for better usability and adjusted the spacing between items so users could scroll more comfortably. We also refreshed the tips page, replacing stock images with real photos taken by the Come To The Sahara team—images that showcase their extraordinary adventures.

The site’s layout was also optimized across desktop, tablet, and mobile, so it looks equally great no matter how visitors are browsing.

We completed a design refresh, updating the look and feel of their homepage and tour pages.  While the original photos were beautiful, they didn’t fully capture the authentic, one-of-a-kind experiences that Come To The Sahara offers. Their team wanted to showcase both classic Moroccan sights and those “only with us” moments that set them apart. Bringing their vision to life with imagery of stunning landscapes and mouthwatering cuisine was pure joy for us. In fact, everyone at Hop Studios is now daydreaming about embarking on their own trip to Morocco!

It’s been a pleasure supporting Come To The Sahara with their website, helping to promote the incredible trips they curate. Their passion for crafting meaningful and memorable travel experiences shines brightly, making it no surprise that they were honoured with a Traveler’s Choice Award from TripAdvisor in 2024. If you’re thinking about your next big adventure, we wholeheartedly recommend their tours.
