One of the best day trips to explore nature outside of Marrakesh - We had an amazing time. Omar was a fantastic guide and went above and beyond helping with photos and sharing really interesting details about the history and culture of the places we visited. Pickup was easy, the bus was comfortable, we stopped often for rest and bathroom, all our needs were met. Breakfast and lunch were both delicious. There were opportunities to buy nice items like the argan oil from the women’s collective but there was never pressure to spend in excess. Everything was very genuine, no gimmick here. We especially loved the hike portion, it was nice to really get out of the city and cover some distance and it was friendly for all fitness levels. It was a long day and Omar filled it with activities. Amazing experience, especially for such a good price.

Girl’s trip with Yasmin our tour guide - We had such an amazing day trip with our tour guide ( Yasmin ) and her uncle the driver (Mohammed Tichka). Yasmin was so patient, knowledgeable and so so sweet. From Our pick up from the hotel and drop off back, we had a great time. We visited Yasmin’s grandmother’s house up in the mountain and had an amazing lunch. The trip was well worth the price and if I could give more stars I would. I will recommend the family run tour and they pay attention to detail and ensure everyone’s need in the group is catered for. Yasmin, you are the absolute best in what you do.

A wonderful day out in the Atlas Mountains. - Our guide was Yasmin who really showed us what it was like to live like a local in the Atlas Mountains. It's a real family business and we were made to feel very welcome. A delicious home cooked meal was prepared with the best potatoes I have ever tasted! A camel ride and an argan oil demonstration are also included so this tour is very good value for money.

Fantastic day in the Atlas Mountains - Absolutely amazing value for money trip and the highlight of our holiday. Our guide Mustafa was so friendly, had excellent English and gave so much information on the Berbers and the local area and was thoroughly entertaining. His brother also joined us for some of the tour and was equally friendly and helpful. Our tour began mint tea and a camel ride which was great fun and Mustafa took some fantastic photos for us. We then visited an Argan cooperative for Berber breakfast, and a demonstration on how the oil is produced & a chance to buy products, which we did, but there was no pressure at all. From here we went on for a walk in the mountains with a stop at a lovely waterfall, before continuing on to Mustafa’s family home, the meal served here was unbelievably good, and with a vegetarian option. The walk itself can be slippy in a few places, Mustafa and his brother were always there to offer a hand, definitely good hiking shoes needed. The best value for money trip we have done, thoroughly recommend.

Phenomenal tour! - Omar was a great guide and host! At each stop he gave insightful knowledge on the cultural relevance of the stop. He was kind and respectful and ensured that all guests were comfortable. The food was amazing. Everything in the description matched what we did that day and I would recommend this tour to anyone. He communicated all the information we needed to know about what to bring and pick up beforehand and we felt prepared. Omar the GOAT fr

Superb must do activity - Excellent day out with lots of culture and history shared by Omar who was a top guide and took good care of the group. Incredible lunch cooked by Omar’s gran. Definitely would recommend. Wear sensible walking shoes as advised as some of the walk to the waterfalls and to Omar’s family house is quite technical.
