Excellent service and family friendly service. Felt like someone from local family was with us and guiding us at every step. Thank you Ahmad and we will use your services again.
I recently had a wonderful experience Ahmed, and I cannot recommend his services enough. He is incredibly energetic and funny, and his deep knowledge of the City and Country – along with all those historical facts – was truly impressive. His storytelling skills combined with his hospitality made for a memorable experience. My friends from CALIF highly recommended him, and I will certainly be recommending him to anyone looking for an engaged and personalized experience. I also really appreciate how responsive was to all our communications, which was very helpful throughout the planning process. I will definitely be calling him the next time I’m in Marrakesh!
We had the most unforgettable experience with Ahmed as our private tour guide. From start to finish, he made our trip truly special. He took us to see the desert where we enjoyed a magical fire show and a beautifully arranged romantic dinner under the stars — an experience we will never forget. Ahmed also guided us on a scenic hike through the Atlas Mountains, complete with a delicious local lunch and a refreshing stop at a stunning waterfall along the way. His hospitality was amazing; he is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and caring, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. If you’re looking for a guide who goes above and beyond, Ahmed is the one. Highly recommend his tour — absolutely worth every minute!
Thank you so much for this wonderful 5-star review! 🌟 It was truly a pleasure to guide you and be part of such a special journey. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed the desert experience, the fire show, and the romantic dinner under the stars — those moments are always magical, and I’m glad they became unforgettable memories for you. The hike in the Atlas Mountains, the local lunch, and the waterfall stop were also a great time, and I’m delighted you enjoyed discovering these beautiful places. Your kind words about my hospitality and care mean a lot to me. Thank you again for your trust and recommendation. You are always welcome back to Morocco, and I would be honored to guide you again in the future. Warm regards, Ahmed Guided Desert Morocco
We had a great day with our guide and driver Ahmed. We went to the Ourika valley. We stopped at a real berber family and had tea and nice bites. After we made a great walk in the mountains, showered under the waterfall and hat a nice lunch at the river. We really enjoyed the day. Even the heat in august was not bad in the mountains, which was a plus😅 And also important Ahmed was a quite driver, we felt save😊👍
Thank you very much for your lovely review 🌟 I’m really happy to hear that you had such a great day trip to the Ourika Valley. Sharing tea with a local Berber family, walking in the mountains, enjoying the waterfall, and having lunch by the river are special moments, and I’m glad you enjoyed them all. It’s also great to know that even the August heat felt comfortable in the mountains — that’s definitely one of the advantages 😅 And thank you for mentioning the driving; your comfort and safety are always very important to me. Thank you again for choosing this experience, and I hope to welcome you back to Morocco for another adventure in the future 😊👍 Warm regards, Ahmed Guided Desert Morocco
The tour company we used were very attentive and made our trip a memorable one. The staff were professional and nothing was too much trouble. The trip is suitable for families with older children. The Berber Women’s co-operative was an interesting visit and worthwhile visit

Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you again in Morocco for another wonderful experience in the future. Best regards, Ahmed Guided Desert Morocco
Our bus was on time and nice and comfortable. Our guide was helpful and friendly. We got to see a Berber village and the Imlil waterfalls
A big thank you to Ahmed for taking care of us and meeting exactly our expectations, from France then to arrival and return from the airport. Accompanied by Mohamed, our prudent and adorable driver on our family journey, Ahmed made us live a magical moment in the Agafay desert, camp and incredible landscapes but also in the beautiful valley of Illil where in this month of April rub shoulders with snow-capped mountains and blooming fruit trees. But we must not reveal everything, we must go, our eyes closed thanks to Ahmed and his team! We'll probably be back...
This was a lovely scenic trip and would recommend it. Bring your own drinks and snacks for the travel.
Ahmed and his companions are completely trusted to have them as guides or as transport through Morocco, we did great.
Wow this trip was absolutely amazing Ahmed has great energy making us feel at ease and treated us like kings and Queens. He is very professional , welcoming with a warm smile on his face . Redoine was also very welcoming and picked us up from our residence. With good enery too. We went to the village and learnt how to make pottery and see the hard work which is put into making it. The family was absolutely lovely and honestly we had a brilliant time. We then went to the Agafay desert and rode the camel the scenery was unreal . Breath taking . We then was brought to an area to have freshly cooked food which was so tasty . This trip made our adventure in Morroco worthwhile and I will be back every year just because the people , the culture the love is everything. A peaceful outstanding country.
