Excellent interesting day with lovely driver - Samir 2 our driver was a delightful and kind host who looked after us with good natured charm especially as getting all our group back together was like herding cats! It was a lovely trip to the Atlas Mountains on some scary roads but Samir was a very good driver so we felt safe. Would thoroughly recommend taking this trip with Samir2

Rich in emotions - Day in the Atlas Mountains ✨ Today we took the road for three hours through the sublime Atlas Mountains, accompanied by our guide Abdullah. Upon arrival at the meeting point, the welcome was warm and kind. We started with lunch in an excellent restaurant: a person of great kindness, attentive service and tasty cuisine — a real moment of sharing. The day continued with a visit to the Atlas Studios, impressive for their history and cinematic atmosphere, then with the discovery of the Kasbah Aït Ben Haddou: breathtaking landscapes, a passionate guide, and a deeply human experience. Throughout the journey, the welcome was sincere, warm, and the scenery was simply beautiful. I would definitely recommend Abdullah for his kindness, professionalism and quality of experience.

Great activity from Marakkech - If you have just a few days in Marakkech, this activity is the best choice, as you get to see the Atlas Mountains, the beginning of Sahara desert and a berber village in just one day. The guides, Jamal and Mohamed were very friendly and accommodating and the information about the berber way of life was really good. We definitely recommend this trip.
