The tour part was a long drive through the mountains with tourists stops where they want you to purchase. We have done 6 Viator tours so far in Morocco and found that every tour takes you to these places. Ait Ben Haddou and the Atlas studio was awesome. We had a nice gentleman at Ben Haddou as a guide. He spoke some English but he couldn’t understand our questions. Movie studio was very interesting and fun. The guides very knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. The reason we are only giving this 4 stars is although our driver was very nice and picked up at riad on time He didn’t speak hardly any English. We booked an English private tour. Also the drive through the mountains was harrowing to say the least. He drove extremely fast passing all other cars even on the hairpin turns. We felt very unsafe. We had done two other tours in the Atlas Mountains and did not feel unsafe on any of the prior tours.
Many thanks to our driver Youness who gave us a lot of information during the journey. Moreover the visit of aït ben haddou is really interesting. Not to be missed Do not hesitate to do even if a little far from Marrakech
My driver, Mohammed, was amazing throughout the entire day. He was punctual, very friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about Ouarzazate and the Atlas Mountains region. The guided tour in Aït Ben Haddou was excellent, the food was incredible, and the scenery was truly spectacular during the whole day. I highly recommend this experience.
This tour was a rich cultural experience for my husband and me and it had everything to do with our driver, Youness. Yes, the tour was everything described. But, Youness took it to the next level for us. You will spend a lot of time in the car with your driver. Youness talked with us about the Berber culture and language as we drove through the Atlas Mountains to Ben Ait Haddou. We stopped along the way to take pictures. He took care to make sure we were in the very best location. Our trip occurred during Ramadan. Later at sunset, Youness invited us to join him at a roadside cafe to break his fast. He insisted on sharing his food and tea with us, and we spent the evening discussing Islam and the similarities between our respective religions. This genuine human connection was one of the best experiences my husband and I have ever had while traveling abroad. It served as a powerful reminder of how much we have in common as humans. It was something we will never forget. Thank you, Youness for being so kind and open in sharing your culture with us.
We had a great day on this tour. Our driver Youseff was very professional and nice. The drive through the Atlas Mountains was incredible views. We stopped and took some good photos. Youseff was flexible with stops for whenever we needed a coffee or toilet break. The guides at both Atlas Studio and Ait Ben Haddou were knowledgeable and personable. We personally liked Ait Ben Haddou the best and would probably rather to cut Atlas Studios out to shorten the length of the tour as it is a very long drive however that is all a personal preference and we still enjoyed our time at Atlas Studios. I am glad we chose the private option for the tour as it offered more flexibility and would have been shorter than the group option time wise. The food at the lunch stop was also lovely and it’s a cool vibe at the terrace restaurant. I would definitely recommend this tour to others!
Ait ben Haddou was fabulous! It is worth a visit for sure. Due to weather and road closures, we had to postpone our tour and the company was accommodating and responsive. Our guide was more of a driver than a tour guide so the information provided was very limited. However, he was personable and willing to do whatever we liked. Overall it was a fine day. Long, but great to get out of the city and see the Sahara.
Great tour but a very long one with our wonderful guide Youssef. We visited two sites, had lunch and made several stops in interesting places. Highly recommend it.
Divine experience, amazing landscapes, very helpful and lively guides, I recommend the agency, very organized and great management, 5 stars
the day was wonderful! The driver, Yunes (I hope it's spelled that way) had the patience to wait for us due to a slight delay due to a problem on the location, despite this he was from the beginning very kind. I would add with pleasant surprise that he was also very cultured because during the scenic tour he told us a lot about the territory and history with many details. This made our tour fantastic and constructive. Overall, the visit to the studio atlas and Ait ben addou was also really satisfying. Great experience!
Just wow ! It was unique experience i ❤️❤️❤️❤️ i strongly recommend I CAN SAY THAT IT WAS MY BEST INVESTMENT Thank you 💕 !!
