Excellent day. Lots of things to experience 😀 - The meal and camel ride great and also the walk to the waterfall. When our guide explained that it was his family that were involved with the experience,cooking the delicious meal we would have liked to know this before the meal to appreciate and thank them Guide was lovely, but again didn't introduce himself by name to the group! But thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Perfect excursion from the beginning to the end of the day - Welcoming at the top, I advise with my eyes closed! From the camel ride, to the meal to finish the discovery of the waterfall we had throughout the day a great host.

10/10 - The camel ride was so fun, and we were given plenty opportunities to take photos. The van that took us around was air conditioned and we were provided lots with water. There is a lot of walking involved though, so wear appropriate shoes!

This blue dream - It's a new color world. Wake up in the morning 9:00. After a first day spent at the souk and legs ready to sign their death notice, I almost commit to a day that I will not know until much later, will probably be the best of my stay in Morocco (behind the day back by plane with stopover in Lisbon). From well-treated camels with wet truffles to the apotheosis of the day of drinking mint tea (offered!) on top of a hill overlooking the desert, everything was perfect. A special mention to Ibrahim, our guide, who was able to inform us about the history of the country, its customs and welcome us home to eat the best grilled carrots on this side of the Sahara.

Unforgettable - Amazing day and incredible guide! A huge thank you to Ibrahim for making us live one of our most beautiful days in Marrakech. From a camel ride, to a meal in a Berber family, to hiking in the Atlas Mountains to end up on tea in the Agafay desert, everything was perfect! We leave with memories full of heads and stars full of eyes. I recommend 100% and especially for a group of 10 like us that day.
