    Thank you Lahsen, I walked up a mountain!!!

    Lahsen is fantastic!

    Loved this day out. A day of firsts for me. I rode a camel and…

    We climbed the Atlas Mountains by road. We got to a point (very high) where we got out of the bus and went on a little ‘walk’. I am terrified of heights. At times the road has a sheer drop to the side. Just the feeling that I was that high was not good to say the least. It was all I could do to not sit on the floor and cry 🤣). Lahsen held my hand, took it painfully slowly whilst I clung to the mountainside and encouraged me. He even offered to take me back down and then walk back up the path to rejoin the group! We persevered and although I could not walk around to the actual water of the fall I did get to the top to see it! Celebratory air punch! Thanks Lahsen! I can’t believe I walked (was dragged) up the side of a mountain! Thank you so much. I will never forget this day.

    I would highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Marrakesh!

    We’ve had 4 other tours in Morocco but this is our favorited one. Merry was kind and humble. she shared her culture with us. Also, the views were amazing, requires a light hike but its easy. The tour felt safe. I would highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Morocco!

    Agafay and Atlas Mountains day trip

    I have travelled with my 3 kids and we had an amazing time throughout the trip. We were picked up on time and started our journey to Agafay desert where we rode camels and had a tea. Then we continued to Atlas Mountains. We had great time there too, Ibrahim our guide was very thoughtful and knowledgeable. He made plenty of stops so we could take photos and to see snow on the mountains was just cherry on the top:) we had lovely lunch in the village too with views of Atlas Mountains. I can highly recommend this day trip and Ibrahim as a guide:) thank you very much for experience and memories 😊

    Amazing experience from beginning to end

    An amazing experience from beginning to end!! Really well organised and our guide Ibrahim went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time possible. My personal highlights were the opportunity to try local foods (in particular a wonderful tagine) and the waterfalls which were beautiful.

    I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Marrakesh

    Great informative tour

    Mohammad and Brahim were fabulous! The tour was great, very informative guides! Stoped for plenty of photo opportunities (the guides were especially good at getting the perfect angles), and learnt a lot! Lunch was great with a view and worth the extra, waterfall is amazing, and the argon oil was super interesting too.
    Camel ride was also good with tea after, but I would probably do a tour without it next time (just personal moral preference).

    Beautiful

    Beautiful experience!
    The guide was super available.
    After the desert we stop for a little breakfast and it was so nice!
    A little advice, wear comfortable clothes because you will go for a walk in the Atlas Mountains!
    overall a beautiful experience

    A day to remember

    What an incredible experience. The breakfast at the local cooperative was such a treat – wasn’t expecting that. The guide stopped at several beauty spots for photo opportunities and was a fountain of information. We stopped at a little village high up in the snowy Atlas Mountains and hiked up to a stunning waterfall. We were allowed adequate time for a drink and rest break and stopped at a number of viewing spots along the way. We returned to the village and went for a superb Berber lunch. Our local guide then took us to his house and we sat on the roof and had peppermint tea. The view was breathtaking. Back in the bus and on to the Agafay desert for our camel ride. Much longer than I expecting and dressed up in local garb. The whole day was delightful and beyond expectations. Diversity of the mountains to the desert. An amazing experience, but would be a bit of a hike and strenuous if not fit. Highly recommend and excellent value for money

    Perfect trip

    We’ve been picked up by Mostafa exactly at arranged hour, he was taking care of us with such a professionalism. Our guide Mohamed Larbi was amazing, friendly and in the same time with a such respectful manner. We really enjoy our trip with the best team!
