A trip that was out of this world! Great insights and experience! - This was such a great day trip. The value from this trip was extraordinary! Our guide Hassan was fantastic and was able fit in a myriad of things along our route. So the value for your money is excellent and also we had food covered with a Berber Breakfast along with the visit to the Argan Oil C-operative run by women. We also had great fun on the camel ride, visit to a very local market in Asni and then on to the higher Atlast Mountain to trek to a cool clear stream.
Just a fantatsic trip! Well done and keep it going...

Totally worth it - Oh my goodness this was an incredible tour. Such a lot packed into the day for such a reasonable price. The camel ride was a fun experience, we really enjoyed visiting the feminine cooperative where they make argan oil products. The walk to the waterfall through atlas mountain villages was lovely and then an amazing lunch. DO THIS TOUR!

Loved loved loved this tour! - Youssef was amazing and his driving team excellent. The bus could have had a mic so we could hear better, and youseff was great at letting people know what was coming next. We appreciated the hospitality, the lunch, views, walk to the waterfall, villages, life experience that this tour covered. Well done and highly recommend! They call you that morning so do not stress that you do not know much in advance. They came to a nearby location and had with other travelers as well. Thanks for making wonderful memories in your lovely country.

Fabulous day trip - What a great day excursion. Was picked up from our hotel by Marwan our guide who had been in touch the night before to confirm the pick up details. Throughout the trip he was funny, informative and considerate. Went first to the Atlas mountains via a stop for breakfast at a woman's Argan Oil cooperative. Delicious and informative and gave us a chance to get to know our fellow travellers. Went on to the mountains with a great commentary by Marwan. Stopped at a village for lunch. Left the van and walked to the restaurant with Marwan pointing out the best views and interesting facts. Lunch was served with an amazing backdrop of the mountains and was hot and very tasty. After lunch we walked to the waterfall which was breathtaking. It was quite a long walk and a little bit tricky at times but Marwan was great, checking everyone was ik and helping us if we needed it. Back on the van we headed for the dessert, about an hours drive away. Again stunning scenery and great commentary. Arrived at the camel farm and enjoyed a 20 minute camel ride which was great fun! Finally back on the can to be dropped off back at our hotel.
Great value for money (booked through Getyourguide) and a real insight into the different regions around Marrakech.

5* - We had an amazing experience, guided by Rachid Mazik (our tour guide), which gave us a 5* star service, explaining everything so clear and always ready to help us and answer our questions!
During our trip, the driver, Ebrahim Igdem, was very friendly and had a safe driving.
After visiting a women’s cooperative, walking throughout a berbere village surrounded by the Atlas Mountain, having a delicious tradicional meal (tagini) with a beautiful view to the village and passing by a few breathtaking landscapes we arrived to Agafay desert. Waiting for us was a group of people who quickly helped us to dressup the traditional clothing for the desert in order to ride the camel. We have to give a special thank you to Ahmed and Abdelatif, which guided and helped us with camel riding.
It was a beautiful day, maybe the best day we had in Morocco! We really advise!
