Lovely day out - We had an amazing day out with our guide fozia, camel ride was amazing. Food at fozia family home was delicious. Berber market was bustling with amazing wares, I myself bought tajine to cook at home. Fozia was full of interesting information about the lives of Berber people and their history. I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone who goes to morroco.

Time to Chill - Abdullah was amazing, taking a group of us to the Berber Villages. Wealth of information he explained about The Berber & Culture. The highlight was that he took us to his family home for lunch and the food was soo good. Then the water falls was a treat, it was a good trek . Thank you

Driver and activities are great but beware of location changes - I am giving this fiver stars because of our drive, Abdul. He was kind, informative and just a really nice person. He took us to see his beautiful berber village where the food was incredible and the people very friendly. The hike was easy and relaxing and the camel ride was also very fun. I would suggest that the tour operator do a better job supporting their drivers though. The tour operator suggested a location to collect us on WhatsApp the night before the tour. We said that was fine. The same person then contacted us on a different WhatsApp number shortly after with a different pickup location closer to our hotel. We said okay, that's fine. We got to the second location, in time the next morning and texted them to confirm this is where we are. They reacted on WhatsApp with a thumbs up to the message. After 20 minutes the operator rang to ask where we were and told us we were in the wrong location. They sent screenshots of the first conversation we had and tried to make it look like it was our fault. We were not having that so we sent screenshots of the second conversation back to them and they said our driver will try to sort something. Basically they completely passed the responsibility to Abdul and tried to pass the blame to us. So we are giving this tour 5 stars because Abdul was terrific. He saved the day and the activities were great. But the owners should really not use two numbers, cause confusion and then blame the customer. Thank you Abdul for a great day.

Amazing day adventure ! - An incredible and very interesting day! The drive itself was comfortable, big windows in the van and scenic. Had fun stops along the way including a traditional breakfast, coffee stop with a view and an interesting hike to beautiful cool pools and optional refreshments. Lunch at a Berber home was fantastic and the drive back to Marrakech so interesting & beautiful in a very special way. Ismael was a great guide and the driver Abdul knew just the right speed to take the curvy road up the mountains. Ismael had some interesting historical information that really deepened our understanding of the culture and context. We did this tour on our last day and would absolutely do it again. My husband and I, and our daughter thoroughly enjoyed our day. Was a lovely way to get out of the city, breathe some fresh air, and see the beautiful countryside and Berber villages. And What a great value!

Nice day tour from Marrakesh - A nice day trip for the ones who want to explore more than Marrakesh and its surroundings. The tour itself is very well organized. A recommendation for a guide called Ismail.

Great Day Trip to Atlas Mountains - Nice trip in mountains with camel ride and dressing up in Berber cloths on the way which was fun and broke up the journey. We stopped at Argan oil shop where we would prefer to see more of mountains and local village life. Went to village home for lunch with great views of mountains from the terrace. Great day with very knowledgeable and friendly guide.

10/10 Atlas Mountains Tour! - This trip was what we wanted and more. The driver arrived very promptly to collect us, we headed into the mountains, wore traditional dress for a camel ride, had Moroccan tea on a rooftop, headed further up the mountain and stopped to take in the views, had breakfast (delicious bread and oils) at the women’s cooperative, where they make the oils, headed to Imlil, did a short hike (2.6k) to the waterfall and then had lunch, with the peak of the Atlas mountain in view, all expertly guided by Omar Imzilen. He was very informative, helpful and hospitable. A very memorable day, thank you to Omar and our driver!
