Day trip to the amazing Atlas Mountains - Abdul took us on a day tour to the Atlas Mountains. Enroute we visited a women’s co-operative for breakfast, a coffee stop by a mountain stream, had a short guided walk through a village (with a local villager) and lunch with a local family with a stupendous view of the highest mountain. Abdul spoke superb English, was very knowledgeable and we had well informed chats with him about the Moroccan culture, politics, religion and culture. Abdul also took a great interest in us and where we were from too. We shared the tour with a lovely polish family of four, who happen to now live in Brussels - so we had really interesting discussions and much humour. Abdul’s people carrier/van was immaculate and he is a very good driver. We too frequent stops to take in some amazing views and interesting sights. This tour comes highly recommended - in a word, excellent!

Amazing Experience in the Atlas Mountains! - We had an amazing experience on the half day tour to The Atlas Mountains. Abdul was an amazing host, sharing some incredible knowledge of the area! We started the day with a lovely traditional breakfast at a local argon oil co-op, where we felt really welcome, and the food and tea were both delicious! After this we travelled to the Ourika Valley, where we were taken on a picturesque hike through the local village and up to the mountains. It wasn’t too strenuous! Our guide was also very kind and allowed us time to stop and take in the views. Overall this was an amazing experience, and our only regret was that we didn’t do the full day tour! Hopefully one day we can return.

Fabulous Tour! - Abdul is a brilliant guide. His English is fabulous, as is his knowledge of the area. He made us feel very welcome. We were well looked after at the women's cooperative. the food was really nice. The waterfalls are beautiful and it is nice to get out of the heat of Marakech into the cool mountain air. Our only regret is not booking a longer tour! ...We will be back for another tour with Abdul.

Our driver, Abdul was... - Our driver, Abdul was amazing, energetic, very knowledgeable and passionate about history, the land, and learning more about you and your country. Our walking guide, also named Abdul, was very knowledgeable, patient, and a great guide (he lives in the village)! We enjoyed our adventure immensely - thank you both for the hospitality!

Great trip - It was a nice stint out of the Centre of Marrakesh. Was the 1st person to the Berber breakfast and walking up the Atlas Mountains up to the waterfalls so it was cool and quiet which suited me. Thanks to Anas who was a great guide!

Get to know the country and people - We decided specifically for this tour because it started early and we were able to escape the flow of the other tourists. Our guide Mohammed No.1 collected us on time at the pick-up point. Our guide explained some important customs and customs of the country and people during the one-hour drive to the Berber people. He did it very smartly peppered with anecdotes and important information. Upon arrival at the Berber people, we enjoyed the local breakfast, with delicious tea and homemade bread as well as sweet spread. This was followed by a tour of the landscaped garden with more information about herbs and the production of argan oil. Then we drove to the second stop of the hike to the waterfall in the Atlas Mountains. The ascent went along a river over stick and stone. A little sportiness is required here. After about an hour we had reached our destination. Once you reach the top, you can rest on a terrace with a cool drink. After our descent we went back to Marakech. This tour is suitable for those who want to briefly escape the mainstream of Marakech.
