Great adventures trip - Really enjoyed the comfortable drive to these different destinations. The monkeys and little hike in the mountain forest was the highlight. Our guide/driver really made sure we had a good experience. We bought some souvenirs and Pedro helped us translate and bargain with the shop keeper. Very funny and memorable, we were a bit late but he made sure we took our time - even during Ramadan, Pedro made sure we visited everything and got home around 5:55pm. Only confusing part of the trip was the cave at a family house, we were a bit confused as what was going on and wasn’t made aware of the tipping culture (maybe best to add this info on the website details) but luckily we had enough cash for this adventure and all worked out at the end. Thank you Pedro and maybe me and my partner will see you again!

A fantastic day trip from Fes to the mid atlas mountains - A fantastic day trip from Fes to the mid atlas mountains with trips to see the monkeys, the "Alps" of Morocco and a visit to cave home and fantastic photo opportunities. Our guide, Muhammad, was friendly, knowledgeable, spoke many languages and made the trip fun for me and my 14 year old daughter. Pick up and drop off from our hotel and a good air conditioned mini bus made the trip fun. I highly recommend this well-organised fun day trip, Russell

Cool activity - Cool activity. Doing it was the best decision of this trip. Getting out of the medina for a day and spending a day getting to know other wonderful places was worth it. All the scheduled activities were enriching. The driver very correct and respectful. The guide, Adil, a charming person. At all times he was on the lookout for us and imparted a wealth of knowledge as we went through the sites. We were lucky enough to be able to go in a van by ourselves, just the two of them and the family. Very comfortable and nice. Recommended 100%. If we were to go to Fés again we would ask for Adil, for sure. And at Get your guide we wish you the best of luck. They deserve it. See you soon.

Nice guy, good driver. Nice ride. - Nice experience, there are many things to do, time is short, but still enough to get an idea of rural Morocco. Our young companion was very pleasant and helpful. He was extremely nice even with our two year old. Professional driver, a great driver. Sami is probably the most professional in Fés, he organizes everything properly, you don't have to worry about anything and he is always available for anything. Super recommended!

Great time! - Great time! Picked up on time and we met our guide who was really super friendly and very kind, if you have the opportunity to be guided by Karim you will definitely have a good time! He is very professional, good to live with and taught us lots of things. The journey goes by quickly and the surroundings are definitely worth seeing! Can't wait to come ski here

In the middle Atlas with a private guide! - My husband and je were the only ones together with Hamza, our chauffeur! We went a hole day in his car and we visited a house in a cave, Wich was the former house of Al Hosseini ( I dont know if I write his name correct) he showed us his home and we had tea, and te sang for us. He explained also the traditional clothing and tatooing in the face of the women in the Rif. After that we visited two cities and a cedarwood with Monkees. The first city illfrane, was very neat and clean and looked not like Marokko at all, more like Zwitserland. The second village( forgot the name ) was the village we had lunch, and that was very traditional and we would liked to be there a little longer, instead of in ilfrane. The cedarwood with the monkeys was a bit shocking to us, a place families come together to have a picknick or be together in a nice area... But what a mess it was, plastics everywhere , nobody cleaning the place, only a man selling peanuts( to give to the monkeys) and the basics left in the woods. No, not our piece if cake. However, that was not Hamza s doing, and he showed us all this and it was very nice to be with him in his car , and drive though the country!! The driving looks very chaotic to je, so I was glad we had such a relaxed and safe driver, who took care of everything!! He photo graphed us on I nive door were we bought some stones , found in the Atlas, and gave me a bracelet. That was so very kind!! We had a lovely day!!
