Additional Information

Start your beautiful day with a pick-up from your location at 9:00 by a professional and friendly driver speaking your language. Ourika Valley is nestled high in the Atlas Mountains. Located south of Marrakech. A trip to the Ourika Valley is a great escape from the heat and noise of Marrakech. For the first thirty minutes, you drive through a rather dull, flat plan. The breathtaking views of Berber villages and landscapes begin. There is a great Monday souk in this roadside village. Setti Fatma is the place to go. One is astonished by the hard labor undertaken by the Berber populations of the area, which did not hesitate to hoist with hillside materials necessary for the construction of small houses fixed on a mountainside or to work the terraces necessary for agriculture in a hostile environment. Ourika’s atmosphere and unique décor are sure to impress! Also, you will have a guided hiking and walking tour to see the nice waterfalls in the village of St. Fadma.

WOW, JUST WOW!! - My wife and I travelled to Marrakech for her birthday and it was absolutely fantastic. We did the full day in the Atlas Mountains with Hakim and the whole experience was simply perfect. All our needs were thoughtfully catered for and we were made to feel welcome, safe and comfortable everywhere we went. The Atlas Mountains were breathtaking and we also visited the Argan oil center and Berber house to get a perspective of local life and culture. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hakim and his company to everybody due to the value and fantastic customer service that we received. Thank you for helping us to create great memories that we will never forget.

Magnificent excursion in the 3 Valleys and the desert - It was an extraordinary experience with the tour of the 3 valleys, an evening in the Agafay desert. A big thank you to our guide Hakim, for his kindness, his smile and his generosity which allowed us to enhance this day with the discovery of unusual places. We recommend this experience

Berber villages - A wonderful full day experience visiting Atlas Mountains to see Berber villages, and experience their way of life. We had an excellent tour guide who was knowledgeable about the area and ensured we had a great time. A second tour guide took us up a steep and windy path to Ouzoud waterfalls, through a Berber village where we purchased a beautiful hand made rug, followed by lunch at the bottom beside the river. We would highly recommend this trip.

Tailor-made trip😍 - I had already done Essaouira with Hakim and Kamal in October and was delighted with the performance. Kamal, who runs the agency, is very serious and always tries to respond to all requests, that's great when you want to do things that aren't just touristy. Real listening for a tailor-made trip. Hakim, his brother who drives, is just as nice and very friendly. The choice of places, the quality of the services, the seriousness in the conduct and the desire to always satisfy our requests is really very appreciable. We feel safe and never scammed, very important. I recommend this agency with my eyes closed. Once again a big thank you to both of you for the great times you gave us. Chloe and her family.😍

Best part of our tour - We booked this tour via the Riad we stayed in and this is one of the best experience we had in our Marrakech trip. Hakeem is very professional and at the same time has a friendly demeanour. His priority was our family’s safety while taking us by car from and back to Marrakech. Camel ride, authentic Tagine tasting , camp fire and open desert where me and my wife offered evening prayer were Unforgettable moments. I highly recommend Hakeem and his tour company for anyone who would like memorable and authentic desert safari.

Atlas Trip - An amazing trip full of breathtaking landscape, local history and friendly locals. Our guides took good care of us and were so kind and met all our wishes. The visit of the Berber house was a high point, with the most friendly guide showing us around and telling us all about their culture. We got to buy local products and crafts made by themselves. We got to eat a lovely dinner, amazing tastes, served by very nice people. All in all 10/10. We could not be asking for a better driver and guide, answering all our questions and meeting all of our wishes for this special trip!

Perfect ! - We had the chance to do 2 excursions with Hakim during our stay in Marrakech: in the Agafay desert and in the Ourika valley. Everything was perfect ! Hakim is kind, smiling and attentive. It's nice to travel the region with a local ready to introduce us to their culture. Bonus: Berber music in the car is great!

Travel with my cool friends - We did three excursions with them. The first was to Ourika and before arriving we visited a Berber market, it was a very cool and complete experience. Then we arrived at Ourika and the trip to the waterfall was great, and then the food next to the river. We went quad biking and then had dinner in the Agafay desert. All this together with Hakim, a great guide and a great driver. The next day, we went to Essaouira with Kamal and Rashid, the driver. Eating in a bar that if I had gone alone I wouldn't have gone because it wouldn't have occurred to me was incredible and the fish from the market. The trip with both of them was entertaining and we felt safe. The last excursion was to the Zagora desert. It was a long and sometimes dangerous road but with Hakim at the wheel it was smooth. The experience in the Zagora desert was amazing, the tent the night.... The dawn in the dunes... I would repeat without hesitation. Thanks to everyone who has made this experience possible.
