A huge thank you to Omar for organizing everything so smoothly and making us feel so welcome. A special thanks to our hiking guide, who was incredibly helpful and patient throughout the hike—especially for me as a first-time hiker. The lunch by the river was such a lovely touch, surrounded by nature and great company. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Marrakesh. It’s an unforgettable experience!-Andrea

Altas mountain hike & riveraide dinner - First Abdullah (the Driver) was on time at the Hotel for the pick up. After 45-60min we arrived at the first panoramic place. We took some pictures and if you want, you can buy some souvenirs. After that we went to this place where they make argan oil products. Everything is explained by the ladies that works there. Next was the tour guide (Kamal). He brought us all the way to the waterfall. Buddy was very kind and helpful. Because the climb is NOT for those with knee problems. The climb was about 1,5 hours. Just enough. Underway you will get some souvenirs shops i that's your thing. When we finished the descend, it was time for food. Food was good. Drinks are not included. All by all 4,5 out of 5 stars.

We really enjoyed the trip and can highly recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the Atlas Mountains with a professio - Our trip to the Atlas Mountains was an absolute highlight of our stay thanks to our fantastic guide and driver. From the beginning, the organization was excellent, and we immediately felt in good hands. Our guide was not only extremely competent, but also passionate about the matter. He not only showed us the familiar highlights, but also took us to remote, picturesque places we would never have found on our own. Our driver, Moncef, was also outstanding. He drove us safely and comfortably through the mountains, where the roads are often narrow and winding. With his calm, experienced driving style and friendly nature, he made us feel safe and comfortable at all times. A special highlight was a visit to a traditional Berber house. The guide also let us share in the hospitality of the family. It was a unique insight into life off the beaten track, and we really felt welcome. Moncef always had a smile on his lips and was always available for a little chat in between, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The breathtaking views we were allowed to enjoy on the tour were only even more intense due to the excellent support from our guide and Moncef. A huge thank you to our guide and Moncef – you made this tour an unforgettable experience!

Einfach unvergessliche Reise - I had an amazing experience in the Ourika Valley, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable adventure. Our driver, Moncef, was incredibly helpful and spoke excellent English and French, making our experience even more enjoyable. He went out of his way to ensure we had a great time, even taking beautiful pictures of each of us. Moncef took us to a traditional Berber house and a women’s cooperative, where we learned about their way of life and saw how they produce argan oil. The scenic roads were stunning, so make sure not to fall asleep during the drive! Afterward, we had a delicious lunch by the river, followed by a hike to explore the area and visit a waterfall with a local guide. Moncef’s guidance and knowledge made the experience unforgettable. I highly recommend Moncef to anyone visiting the region.

Outstanding Tour!!! - This was my first trip to Morocco and I absolutely love it! One of the reasons was this Fantastic tour, from the moment of pick up at our hotel , couldn't fault it You see so much of the locals daily life, camels by the road side, some donkeys used as transport but looked well looked after. The scenery was amazing, stopping at panoramic views to take photos and our tour guide/driver Moncef didn't rush us , allowing us time to browse and barter with the local Berber's craftsmen! We stopped at the dwelling of where the Berber women made the argan oil and they made us tea and explained all the different oils and what they were used for. After that we headed to the mountains and driving along the river it's hard to believe you're not in the rocky mountains of Canada! We arrived at the village of Ourika which was unbelievable, the colours are amazing, the people friendly, I couldn't fault it, the only thing I will say it is a very steep incline to see the waterfalls, rocky terrain and high ' steps'. I didn't quite make it to the top but halfway! Make sure you have warm clothes and good shoes for climbing! After the waterfalls we had our lunch sitting next to the fast flowing river which was awesome 👍 Once again our driver/guide Moncef was amazing,he was so helpful, explaining everything to us. Moncef was also a very good steady driver making the journey such a pleasure. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour you will not be disappointed! Jenny UK December 2024
