Really recommend the tour!

I 100% recommend the tour. It was the best part of visiting Morocco and I'll also suggest to all my friends who'll go to Marrakech. The camel ride was super fun and it was very interesting to see how argan oil is made. But my favourite part was lunch! We went to the house where the tour guide lives and his family made the most delicious tajine I've ever had. Much better than the ones I tried in restaurants. The guide will tell you so many interesting things about the culture, religion and history. My friend and I loved the tour! ...Show More --}}

Atlas one day trip

Absolutely recommended day trip. You really get a real insight of how Berbers live in the mountains, we got an amazing lunch and tea at the guide’s family that was one of the best experiences. The Tajik we had for lunch was completely hand made traditionally ans was the best we had. ...Show More --}}

Superb experience!

I don't know how to explain this experience - it was superb! From the very beginning to its end, it was very well organized. Transportation was precise; locations were beautifully selected; food was tasty. We would like to thank our driver Omar, guide Rachid, camel rider Mohammad - and, of course, organiser Ahmed. Every stop was just fantastic. However, for us, there was one special point to raise here: You will see and feel how the Berbers have collectively built a lovely community in Imlil Valley at the skirts of Atlas Mountains. This trip definitely motivates us to come back here again and re-live it from the start. ...Show More --}}
