Atlas mountains and private guide - Great views across the mountains, had a private guide and a fabulous lunch. The food was local fresh produce and the flavours were amazing. The sounds of people, birds and animals appeared to travel throughout the valleys. This trip must be top of your list

A perfect day trip out of Marrakesh - Great host, comfortable transport and lots of interesting stuff to see and do (and eat). Perfect way to see the countryside and local life outside Marrakesh.

Fantastic Atlas Mountains Hike - We had a fantastic day trip hiking in the Atlas mountains and we got an insight to the Berber community. They are still recovering from the major earthquake and the damage to homes and roads could be seen but they are a very resilient people. Our two Omars, Omar our driver and Omar our guide for the trek were wonderful and most helpful. We also enjoyed our lunch in a Berber family and were well looked after by our host Mohammed. You need to wear appropriate footwear and clothing as some the trails were quite rugged and very dusty. Highly recommended.

Berber Beauty - Brahim and his cousin Mustafa were amazing tour guides and Berber locas, growing up in the Atlas Mountains. A highlight for me was drinking the sweetest freshest orange juice of my life by a waterfall. Also the food Mustafa’s family cooked for us was truly tasty! I would highly recommend taking this tour!

A Great Day in the Atlas Mountains - Hassan and I had a great day together. He is knowledgeable and extremely pleasant. He is also from the area, so he pretty much knows everyone. I also like that it was easy to communicate with him before and during the trip. The trip to the Atlas mountains was a welcome trip out of Marrakech. While the climb up the mountain may not be for everyone (if you are scared of heights, I would not recommend), but I liked the exercise and I am very glad that I did it. I also liked that Hassan took me to see different and more remote areas in the mountains. I would highly recommend Hassan as a guide.

Outstanding Atlas Mountain Experience - Hassan was an absolutely amazing host for two uniquely spectacular outings during our visit to Marrakesh. Our first outing with Hassan was a full day trek to the Atlas Mountains. We started the day with an easy pick up in his very clean SUV where two cold waters awaited us. We connected with him immediately and within five minutes knew we were going to enjoy our day with him. His knowledge of Moroccan history and ability to share cultural information was incredible. He never tired of our questions and the conversation flowed easily. In addition, his sense of humor was great fun! We can honestly say we feel we have a new friend in him. As we made our way to the Ourika Valley and waterfalls, we stopped along the way for some successful shopping and also enjoyed a typical Berber “second” breakfast that was delicious! All of the stops we made were in very clean and well run places. We appreciated that greatly. When we arrived in the village of Fatima for our waterfall hike we met Amzil who was the guide to the falls and to our lunch in a typical Berber home.-which is something we will remember always. On our way back to Marrakesh, we stopped to ride camels-another unforgettable experience! Hassan even made a requested additional stop at a local mall when we told him we needed to purchase one more small suitcase. After such a perfect day together, we made sure to plan a second outing together. On our second outing, we went to Berber villages and sights we would have never seen on our own which included the mountains, desert, a lake, a delicious lunch at a beautiful lakeside restaurant, and an opportunity to meet local Moroccan people. One of the highlights of our day was sharing cookies with the children in the small villages we drove through. Once again, Hassan was a wealth of information and our time with him flew by! He even made sure we got to the airport directly from our tour with him. We can’t thank you enough for all that you did to make our trip so wonderful! Tenmirt, our friend! We look forward to more adventures when we return!

Decent excursion from Marakesh - My guide was knowledgable, professional and above average. The sites on the tour were just average. The visit to local village house was slightly interesting but lacked authenticity. The waterfall was disappointing and overrun with tourist. Drive into the Atlas Mountains was impressive with jagged snow capped peaks. That was unexpected and probably the highlight of the day. The tour was overpriced at > $200 US Dollars.
