Great day trip from Marrakesh - We went on a day trip from Marrakesh to The Ourika valley and Sti Fadma. Our guide and driver was Jamel. We had a wonderful day - amazing views across the snow capped mountains and through the surrounding valleys. We had an excellent lunch sat down by the Ourika river - amazing location for lunch. Jamel was a very knowledgeable guide but also a very, very nice person. His English was perfect and he was great fun to be with for the day. A very charming man. We can thoroughly recommend this trip for families and groups of friends.

Jamal, our patient, kind and knowledgeable guide - is there anybody or anything in this region he doesn’t know? - The heading says almost everything you need to know about the service and our excellent driver and tour guide Jamal . We had a really great day in his company and learned so much about this region that was spoken with knowledge and understanding as a person who had been born and grown up here. He was sensitive and thoughtful to allow us time to ourselves at points along the journey. The vehicle provided for the trip was suitable for the terrain and well driven by Jamal, so we always felt safe. In short, if you are planning a trip to this area then this company are highly recommended - we are planning to return to Marrakesh and will be using them to explore further…
