“Charming Atlas Mtn Tour - This was a one day tour to the Atlas Mountains with lunch included, followed by a drive through the Agafay Desert. Omar Mesakouk took us on a private tour through Toubkal /Imlil area, and into the Atlas Mountains to a beautiful waterfall, then back down into his village to give us a full view of Berber life. Omar was so very kind, considerate, helpful and absolutely charming, making allowances for the fact that we are not as fit or as spry as we could be. We would highly recommend using Omar for this adventure. He gave us some real insight into the region and how those ancient communities have had to evolve to survive these modern times.” - Reviewed on 2024-09-13
