Great Day out in the Atlas Mountains - This was a great well organised all day experience. Pick up was on time and our driver/guide for the day was friendly and informative throughout. We were taken to all the valleys and had an excellent Berber lunch at a traditional house. The scenery was amazing and it was interesting to see the real Morocco beyond the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh.

Atlas Mountains tour - Our tour guide, Marwan, arrived to pick us up from our hotel on time and then picked up other guests on the way. He was polite and informative from the outset explaining local culture as well as giving us interesting pieces of information along the journey. Some of the roads in the mountains are narrow but we felt safe in the vehicle. The stops along the way were nice and really good opportunities to take photos (and use the restrooms). There is a short walk included (30 minutes) which again was a good opportunity to take photos. Note: the air felt thinner up in the mountains and it was chilly in the shade. Lunch was really tasty. Marwan described it as being made with love and I’d agree with a perfect view to match.

It was worth the... - It was worth the money.Marwan a good guide. Probably he need to have internal sound system so that people sitting at the back can hear him clearly.

Small group day trip to the mountains - Fantastic day out to see the beautiful scenery and culture of the Atlas Mountains and Berber life.
Marwan was a knowledgeable, friendly and competent driver/guide who was passionate about the traditional culture, language and lifestyle of the Berber people. He took us to places you would never go or even get to on your own. Our lunch stop was in a traditional Berber home involving 3 delicious courses of soup, chicken and vegetable tagine and orange dessert. The view from the open-sided dining area was spectacular, across the valley.
It was humbling to see the earthquake damage in the houses and roads.
The weather was unseasonably mild for December, normally there would be snow on some of the roads.
The view of Mount Toubkal was amazing.
Marwan was a very safe and capable driver. The van was comfortable and secure.
The trip was excellent value and we would highly recommend this tour and the company.

Definitely recommend because of the driver and guide - Abdul really made the trip 1000x better. It was quite a long drive but he had so much knowledge about everything Morocco related! He filled in the time between the valleys so well with his charisma and amazing way of talking with all the passengers, learning all 7 names within minutes and really caring about our individual needs.
I highly recommend this trip and i think Abdul deserves most of that praise. Without him I'm not sure i would have enjoyed it the way i did now.
Abdul you are the best <3

Great landscapes and chance to meet the locals. - Amazing experience overall. It's a long day but organised very well so you don't feel tired or bored. Our tour guide Ahmed was very experienced and knowledgeable, he kept the journey interesting. We stopped at many view points for photos. On time pickup and very comfortable car journey.
Lunch was very good, they cater for vegetarians too.

Wonderful - We had an amazing trip to the Atlas Mountains with Marwan, who was an excellent local guide with fluent English language skills.
The views were breathtaking and the meal we ate in a house in a small village was the best we had during our holiday.
Punctual pick-up, informative guide and wonderful scenery makes this a must do trip from Marrakech.
Thank you Marwan!

Highly recommended! - An incredible tour! Not only were the views of the mountains and valleys incredible, but Abdul was the most knowledgeable and interesting guide, giving us insights into different sights and history that kept us engaged for the entire trip. Abdul truly made it special for us. I’ll add that the food was amazing as well, it was a large portion and the best tagine we had in Morocco, with beautiful views of the mountains while we ate.
