The trip with Ahmed to the High Atlas gave us the impression of moving forward on "a red carpet". Bravo & Thank you Ahmed! - The excursion in the High Atlas was extraordinary, very pleasant and relaxing thanks to our escort Ahmed who was more than professional: Really nice, patient, considerate , excellent organizer and that ... always with a generous smile! I am happy to write this review for him because Ahmed thoroughly deserves it and made our stay in Morocco an unforgettable experience. Guy

Stay in Marrakech - A big thank you to Ahmed thanks to whom our stay was breathtaking. He introduced us to various aspects of Marrakech and answered our many questions precisely. We also went to the Ourika Valley with Ahmed who made the excursion more than pleasant: stop at a women’s cooperative for argan, lunch by the water and a short hike to admire the waterfalls, photo breaks... Your kindness, your sense of hospitality and your professionalism will make us call you as soon as we return to ensure a perfect stay 👍🏼 Thank you 😀 Emmanuelle

Beautiful Berber mountain excursion lead by a great and amazing Guide! - Amazing trip! Hicham picked us up from our Riad and while driving to our first destination he shared lots of local knowledge with us which made us understand the culture even better. First stop was at a women's cooperation where we enjoyed a nice breakfast with the infamous Moroccan mint tea (must try!). After that we went inside where the women showed us how they distract argan oil and use it for food and beauty products. We then proceeded to visit an original Berber home where a family member showed us how they live. A real eye opener and amazing experience. We then proceeded to village where we took a walk to visit the first waterfall (of 7). The walk was amazing. We were enchanted by the little restaurants situated along the river, all the way up to the waterfall. After that we enjoyed a lunch literally next to the river. Hicham is such a lovely person and he treated our daughter like a true princess. He even bought her a beautiful ring. We can't recommend this excursion and Hicham enough. He truly was a great guide and catered for our every needs! I highly recommend this excursion and experience!
