We were very well received by Abdul at first and then taken care of by Adnan, the very kind driver. The afternoon with Mohamed, our guide, also went very well. We thank SAFARI MARRAKECH and during our next trip, we will return to see them. Sylvie and Christelle
Great day with Safari Marrakech Departure 10am to the Ourika Valley. Lunch by the water then a short hike of 1 hour to see the waterfall. The fresh mountain air feels good! Mustapha our driver was on top!
Safari Marrakech is the best. Mr Rachid who is the responsible and managing director is an excellent man, very knowledgeable helpful! He arranged two trips for me I really enjoyed it. 100% recommend. Thanks Mr Rachid for your best service.
Our trip to the Ourika Valley was absolutely incredible! The views were truly breathtaking — every stop felt like a picture-perfect moment. The service from start to finish was outstanding. The person who organised the trip was extremely friendly, helpful, and professional, making everything smooth and stress-free. Our tour guide was just as amazing — very polite, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every part of the journey. I couldn’t recommend this experience more. A perfect day out in Marrakech with exceptional service and unforgettable scenery!
Rachid was very professional and with a lot of good humor! We recommend this agency and also this driver. Thank you!
Superb day with Ishmael to discover the three valleys! Very beautiful landscapes, especially the waterfalls! Busy day!
