A must do while in Marrakesh! - This is a must do excursion while in Marrakesh! Mustapha is an amazing hist and he knows his stuff! There isn't a better tour out there, with all you get for the price is insane. Don't think about it just book it you will NOT be disappointed. I am a solo female traveler and I throughly enjoyed ever minute of it and felt very safe and protected the whole time. 10 out of 10.

Brilliant experience, amazing value! - We had an incredible day out with Mustafa on this tour. We were picked up from a parking place near our riad, and collected 5 other people - so it was a lovely small tour group! We drove to a beautiful view of a Berber town and learnt about Berber traditions and way of life. After, we went to an argan oil cooperative and had a demonstration, and a snack of bread and oil (with a very cute cat pestering us for scraps!) The hike to the waterfalls was lovely - it's quite a steep uphill to begin with, so make sure you bring appropriate shoes! We walked about 2 hours and went to a beautiful little restaurant with views of Mt Toukbal. Mustafa had asked us in the morning about dietary requirements and a very tasty vegetable tagine was provided for me! The others had a chicken tagine. After this we walked back to the car for our drive into the Agafay desert, where we took a short camel ride. The camels looked reasonably well cared for - they weren't muzzled and they weren't spitting, and they had clear eyes so I felt comfortable going for a short ride on them! On the way back we stopped off for a stunning view of the desert at sunset. I can't believe the value for money this tour was - so much included (I didn't get my purse out once!) and a really fabulous knowledgeable guide :)

Mustafa is the best - Mustafa’s tour was the highlight of our trip to Marrakech. It felt like we did a weeks worth of activities in a day! Mustafa was the perfect guide, made us feel comfortable throughout and even helped carry my 3 year old during the tricky bits of our hike. The lunch restaurant was in a stunning mountainous range and the tagine was the best we’ve had during our trip. Superb value for money and we wholeheartedly recommend this tour!

The most authentic cultural experience - The most hospitable and lovely people i have ever met in my life, they made my birthday the most special birthday ever. The food was delicious, fresh and full of flavour. They gifted us many things such as a present for my birthday and 3 (yes 3) birthday cakes + drinks for me and my friends. They gave us many local facts and it felt very authentic to the real lives of moroccans. Transport was also included from our villa to all destinations and back to our villa. All for an incredibly cheap price. Definitely book!!!

Our driver played dual roles and was also the tour guide. He was excellent and well knowledgeable. We enjoyed it! - The most memorable part was getting to the waterfall after the long walk up hill and also admiring the river flow.

Moroccan must see — great day trip to the beautiful Atlas Mountains! - Highly recommend this excursion! Hassan was a great tour guide. We explored the scenic Atlas Mountain with a hike to the waterfall, had delicious lunch in a great spot, sampled Argan oil with breakfast, learnt about the Berber villages, had a camel ride with Moroccan tea. Hassan’s description were so detailed and his English was great. Perfect for everyone; families, friends and couples.

Amazing Experience!!!! - My friends and I loved this so much! It was one of the best highlights of our trip! We made tagine with locals and it tasted amazing. The scenery from where we ate was also very beautiful. Hassan was also lovely and took us around the village and through parts of the mountains whilst the foo was cooking! 10/10 experience!
