Fantastic tour - Kamal was an excellent guide for our tour and also Abdul for the Ourika waterfall hike. Very interesting to visit a Berber home, great lunch location beside the river and fabulous views of the Atlas Mountains on our hike. Everyone involved was welcoming and generous and would definitely recommend this tour.

Amazing day with Aziz in the Atlas mountains - The best decision was to book this tour with Aziz, he is extremely passionate and shows the real, authentic side of people living in the Atlas mountain. Also perfect in English for those whom dont speak French, highly recommend.

Ourika Valley - Booking this tour with Aziz was definitely the best decision my friend and I made. By far my most favorite part of my trip to Morocco. We were able to visit Ourika valley where we were able to experience everyday life with the Berber people. We sat down in a local family’s living room in which we broke bread and had the best tea of my life. We then traveled further up the valley to purchase pure Aragon oils by a shop run by ladies who are either widowed or divorced. This was special to me being that I’m a young widow myself and it was nice to see a supportive sisterhood of women. We then took an hour hike to see a great view of the waterfalls followed by a delicious tajeen lunch on the river bank. It was such a pleasure to spend the day with Aziz and learn so much about his culture and the land he loves. He made us feel right at home and I will definitely be visiting again! Lerice & Risha

Marrakesh ‘s finest Guide - We spent two days with the wonderful Aziz as our guide. Day 1 we did the 1/2 day Jewish heritage tour where we visited the Jewish quarter and synagogue and cemetery. Aziz had amazing knowledge and navigated us around the area smoothly. After , he took us for a guided tour around the souks and was very patient while we shopped . Day 2 We were collected from our hotel and got to experience the Atlas Mountains. On route we stopped at a Berber home where we got to experience how they lived . We were treated to the most tasty breakfast and mint tea and were made to feel very welcome. Next we stopped at an Argan oil demonstration, and if we wanted we could buy the products . After we went on our mini hike up to the stunning waterfall . It was a little challenging at times when the rocks were wet but trainers are perfect ri wear. After, we had lunch and had a tasty vegetable tagine and chicken skewers. Aziz was the most knowledgeable guide and warm and friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone and he was lovely to spend time with .

Thank you Azziz!!!! - We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have met Azziz, he is such a warm and knowledgeable individual. We had a wonderful day tour with Karim one of the guides in his network/ team who he recommended for us. It was all quite last minute and he was incredibly gracious about helping us and making arrangements for us. Karim was absolutely charming, a true pleasure to spend time with, and extremely learned about all things Moroccan. He is of Berber origin and obviously very passionate about telling the story of his people and culture and we feel privileged to have spend time with him. Thank you Azziz and Karim to you both!!

An amazing contact to have to help you get the most from your trip - We were recommended to Aziz by a couple of friends. What a great recommendation. Before we arrived, Aziz was on hand to help us plan the 4 days we had there. He even recommended and made some restaurant reservations for us. Out trip to the Atlas Mountains was incredible and led by Kamal who knew exactly what to show us. The medina experience was perfect with Aziz carefully navigating us around the labyrinth of small alley ways and streets that I doubt we would have found by ourselves. I have no hesitation in recommending Aziz and his team to anyone. He is professional, friendly, courteous, a great communicator and efficient.

AZIZ IS THE BEST !!! - We found AZIZ through a Facebook group and what find it was! Full itinerary was arranged from meeting us at the airport to arranging each day while we were away Marrakesh for a long weekend. We did a number of tours locally in and around Marrakesh and also a day at the Atlas Mountains. AZIZ - apart from being a really really nice guy was very friendly and very knowledgeable and very professional. Everything worked like clockwork. We cannot recommend him highly enough !!!
