This day trip from Marrakech into the Atlas Mountains was a great introduction to the area. Our driver (Fadil) and our hiking guide (Abdeloiahid) were both great, and both were clearly committed to us having a wonderful experience. They were friendly and welcoming, and eager to tailor things to suite our interests and our pace. The drive is just about an hour and very scenic. The hike was clearly a well-beaten route with many other visitors and plenty of amenities. At about 7 hours total, it was the right length for us and an easy day trip from the city. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much! 🌟😊 Glad Fadil and Abdeloiahid made your Atlas Mountains trip friendly, enjoyable, and perfectly paced 🚗🥾✨
Despite overcast weather, we had a great day! Thank you to our guide and driver Jalil for his explanations and kindness.
Merci pour votre retour 🌟 Heureux que Jalil ait rendu la journée agréable malgré le temps 😄💦
Amazing trip. Our tour guide Yasine was very knowledgeable and good communicator. We enjoyed visiting a berber house and argan oil cooperative. The walk to waterfalls was slightly demanding but a professional tour guide was arranged and the guide was very helpful. He managed the whole group including kids and elderly people. Overall it was very enjoyable tour with pretty good views. It was well worth the effort.
Thank you! Glad Yasine made your tour enjoyable and smooth for everyone 🌊🏞️😊

Oman was a great guide, he made the schedule flexible and adjusted it to let us have time to explore ourselves if we wanted.

Omar was great, very friendly and cooperative. Was lenient with time offering to let us stay longer if we needed to! All around would recommend.

Superb outing from Marrakech. Breathtaking scenery. Guides who adapt and are very attentive. Thanks also to Karim for the ride
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié les paysages et l'attention de nos guides. Karim est en effet un excellent chauffeur, toujours là pour rendre le trajet agréable. À bientôt pour de nouvelles aventures ! 😊
Absolutely the worst trip I had in Morocco. The driver barely spoke any English so it was very difficult to communicate. Then at the lunch spot, we forced to bave lunch at the restaurant they had a tie up with, despite there being nicer, less crowded restaurants around. The driver was driving recklessly and ran over a dog, and despite asking him to turn on the AC multiple times, he did not turn it on. If you are at the very back of the car, there are no windows. Towards the end, it became difficult to breathe and we had to get off before our hotel.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations and that several aspects of the trip caused discomfort. We take your comments very seriously, especially regarding communication, comfort in the vehicle, driving safety, and the handling of your concerns during the journey. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we sincerely apologize for what you experienced. Please be assured that we will investigate this situation internally with the team involved, including the driver, in order to understand what happened and take the necessary corrective actions. Your feedback is very important in helping us improve our services and prevent similar situations in the future. We are also sorry for the discomfort you felt regarding the lunch arrangement and the conditions inside the vehicle. Guest comfort and safety should always be a priority. We truly regret that your trip left you with such a negative impression, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
The guide and the driver (rather a driver so difficult to drive in the alleys of Marrakech) were friendly and smiling. The return to song in the minibus was exceptional in kindness and sincerity. Very good time spent with them and our friends. Very good service. Good job.
Il semble que vous ayez passé un moment mémorable, à la fois grâce à la gentillesse du guide et du conducteur, mais aussi à l'ambiance chaleureuse créée pendant le trajet. C'est une belle expérience de partager des moments de convivialité et de sincérité tout au long de l'excursion. Félicitations à l'équipe pour avoir rendu votre journée encore plus spéciale!
