Beautiful experience - We had great experience on the beautiful Atlas Mountains tour, the berber family where we had lunch was absolutely accommodating Highly recommend. Our tour guide abdoul was a great guide, very informative and patient with us. Even when another guest was extremely rude to him. He remained professional and polite. Would advise if you don't like walking this tour is not for you as it's about 1 1/2 hour walk to the waterfalls.

Tour up to expectations - Beware of buying stuff thats unnecessarily overpriced, but other than that everything is enjoyable, loved the mix between desert and mountains. Especially thanks to Bourhim and Khalid!

Unforgettable experience - Our guide Hussain made this a memorable experience. Very knowledgeable, kind, patient and a great photographer. I was travelling with my 66 year old mum and he tailored the experience to suit our needs, we even went on a detour to find some authentic fresh olive oil which was a success. The mountains, Berber village, food, tea, and service at each stop was incredible. Special thanks to Kamal also who accompanied me on the mini hike to the Berber village. Unforgettable experience and highly recommend for all ages.

Amazing views!!! - Wow! Despite reading the description, this trip exceeded my expectations. The driver was very helpful and we travelled in a nice air conditioned vehicle. The camel ride was amazing! The argon oil demo was so insightful and the walk around the mountain village of Imlil was breathtaking. Our tour guide was the nicest and made sure we were all okay when we walked on the mountain. The lunch at the end was incredible. This trip is amazing value for money. I will never forget this trip and recommend it to anyone considering it!

Awesome - We had a wonderful day our driver and guide were excellent I really don’t know how they do it for the money
We had breakfast sightseeing a wonderful lunch and camel ride just 7 of us
My friend had a problem with her foot and we didn’t realise how far we would be walking but our guide helped her all the way so we didn’t miss seeing the waterfall
I would def recommend this tour but be aware a lot of up hill walking over sometimes difficult terrain but well worth it

Great Value for Money - Amazing Day Trip! - Exceptional value for money, this trip includes so many activities for the price. Jamal the driver was very friendly and drove us to all destinations, stopped to let us get pictures of the amazing landscapes, and picked and dropped us off at our hotel.
Mohammed the tour guide on the hike was lovely, very knowledge and let us stop for breaks (as it was 36 degrees!!) and helped me up and down the rocky terrain in parts. We had a lovely lunch which was included and it was excellent and there was so much food as well we were so full afterwards. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Marrakech!!

Excursion to the Atlas Mountains - We had a great day on this excursion. Our driver Hussein Lhossayn picked us up right near our hotel and accompanied us well on this journey. This excursion is very busy, we do not see the day spent (hiking, Berber village visit, making argan oil, camel, etc.)
The lunch is very hearty and delicious. The atlas hike was very well organized with our guide.

The sweetest people and amazing views - Great tour to know the atlas mountains, the waterfalls and the berber villages. As well as the Agafay desert. Amazing views and super nice people. The driver and the guide were super nice and helpful. The wheather is much cooler in the mountains so if you are trying to escape the heat of Marrakech, this is a great way to do it! Karim and is wife let us in to their home and treated us with tea and biscuits. Super nice and humble people.
However the tour is a bit desorganized but its still worth it!

Karim tours did not show up to collect us. - We did not go. We waited at the pick up point for over one hour. Karim tours did not show. We called a number on their website, but the lady that answered had no connection with Karim Tours
