Had a fantastic day going to the Atlas Mountains and the villages! Topped off with beautiful views, an amazing lunch and camel ride to finish off the day. Ibrahim was a great guide and made our experience even more enjoyable. Would highly recommend!

Great day out

Muriel_S, Mar 2023

Great day out. Ibrahim was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We stopped at an argan oil cooperative on the way and were served breakfast on the patio, which was a nice surprise. The walk up to the Waterfall was amazing. The landscapes were truly stunning! The camel ride (approximately 20 min) was fun and the animals looked like they were well looked after. Lunch was absolutely delicious (optional but essential and very cheap). Overall, a great day out and great value for money.

Highly recommended

Mohamed_G, Mar 2023

Fantastic tour highly recommend

Chris_C, Nov 2022

Highly recommend booking this tour if staying in Marrakech! Great value for money especially since hotel pick up is included. You get to experience so much in a short space of time (tour was from 9am until 6.30pm). Lahcen was an incredible guide. He was really friendly and happy to assist with anything you needed. Since he is from the berber villages he was very knowledgeable.

Amazing day

Nour_C, May 2022

well worth a visit a must do go

richard_b, May 2022

A great day out very informative by our guide on his culture A lovely camel ride before a walk to a waterfall at the atlas mountains and a great meal for lunch Many thanks to our guild and driver who were fasting for ramadan at the time Well worth the money so do tip them very well organised from start to finish thankyou again for the lovely memories of our time with you

Great time!

Jason_B, Apr 2022

After taking a few day-trips from Marrakesh, I can say that this one was much better quality than most. Issmail, our guide, spoke great English and genuinely wanted us to learn and have a good time. The activities were fun, the mountains were beautiful and lunch was great.

Zain_K, Mar 2022

On the whole it was a very good trip. It includes tea, a very good lunch (extra €6 pp), guided tour of mountains and waterfalls and a 20 minute camel ride where you dress in traditional clothes. Our guide in the mountains was Mohammed Babala who was knowledgable, spoke very good English and was very helpful and polite. The mountain lunch was a delicious chicken tagline. The best one we’ve had. They have vegetarian options. We asked for hotel pick up. Unfortunately they did not register our booking. We booked at 08:30 for a 09:30 start. We waited for an hour and in the end we called them and they sent someone to pick us up 30 minutes later. Because of this we ended up getting a private mini van to ourselves which was good. My advice is book the night before to ensure your booking is registered. If they don’t show up when you are expecting them to, give the Moroccan number a call. They answered straight away.

Mountain Experience

Angela_O, Jul 2021

The water falls was my best part. After so much walk, it was refreshing to step into the ice cold spring. The tour guide (Potato) was amazing. Very friendly and fun to be with.

Definitely worth the £17

Humma A, Aug 2017

The tour guide Karim was extremely helpful and polite. He was very knowledgeable about the different areas of the Atlas mountain. He made the experience very exciting and also gave us options whether we wanted to walk or use the mule. We enjoyed the walk and allow us time to have rest breaks too.

Tour emotivo

SandraPaola_C, Sep 2023

A pesar -y a raíz- de las circunstancias (viajamos tras el terremoto de Marrakech) ha sido un tour muy especial y emotivo. Bien organizado y los guías maravillosos. Dios ayude al pueblo marroquí a sobreponerse de esta terrible situación.

La otra Marruecos ….

MariaEsther_L, Jul 2022

Muy puntuales. El guía muy eficiente . El lugar para almorzar fue adecuado y los sitios que vimos son un contraste muy interesante con la ciudad de marrakech

Arnaque totale
