Recommended trip for someone who wants to explore the Atlas Mountains one day! - It was a wonderful trip! With a guide who knows the area very well! The food and drinks were fine. In addition, Abdullah Kech is a driver who put everyone at ease, not an easy task given the busy traffic. Definitely recommended for anyone who wants to explore the Atlas Mountains in one day. The walking coach knew the local population in addition to the road.

Highly Recommend Essaouira Day Tour - We recently visited Morocco for the first time and had limited time to explore. Along with visiting the Medina, we booked a day tour to Essaouira, and it was an unforgettable experience.
The tour company we selected exceeded our expectations. Our driver, Abdul, was exceptional—his perfect English and extensive knowledge enriched our journey. Not only did he share fascinating insights about Essaouira, but he also highlighted various charming towns and landmarks along the way, providing a valuable cultural and historical perspective on Morocco.
This private day tour offered us more in-depth learning than we’ve experienced with any previous guides. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Morocco. Thank you, Abdul, for your outstanding service!

Amazing day in the Atlas Mountains - Such a fantastic tour and day out. Was such an amazing experience to meet the Berber families, hike the Atlas Mountains, see all five valleys and meet the women of the argon oil co operative. Ismail could not have been a better tour guide, he made the experience memorable and kept us entertained and informed on every part of the day. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Beautiful day - Very nice day, comfortable car, very careful driver , friendly and interesting.
Visit to a women’s cooperative manufacturing argan oil, precise explanations , quality products, no “pressure” to buy.
Arrival in Essaouira a guide awaits us and visits us, very pro. He advises us a good sea view fish restaurant.
In short everything was perfect. Only small rem: travel time 3h.

MOHAMED EL BAZ SUPER GUIDE - Our super guide Mohamed EL.BAZ showed us his mountain and its waterfalls while telling us about his country and the related traditions. What a fabulous time we had together. Mohamed is attentive to everyone, speaks French fluently and is also funny and charming. We can only strongly recommend it to you.
Thank you Mohamed

Fantastic Day!!!!! - Abdul was incredible! He was right on time to scoop us up from our hotel and made the journey to Essaouria delightful. He shared all of the history, extremely knowledgeable, very hospitable! The tour of the city was perfect. Our guide led us through the city and showed us exactly what we had asked for. The recommended lunch spot was fantastic! If I could give this tour a 10 star I would!! Absolutely perfect! Thank you, Abdul for the best day!!

Don’t miss visiting Essaouira - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Essaouria on 20 September. Our local guide for the walking tour was seriously impressive in imparting her knowledge. It is a beautiful city with a great history. Well worth the journey from Marrakech. Thanks also to our guide and driver.

Seeing Essaouira again! - Returning to Essaouira after 19 years was a great pleasure. Our guide Eunice allowed us to stop often, to take pictures of boats, old walls and to meander through the Medina and around the old walls. Upon request, he took us to 2 art galleries, the thuya and jewellery coops, and found us an excellent t seafood restaurant, Il Mare, with an amazing view of the ocean. Our amazing driver, Ismail, entertained us with facts and stories, making the ride feel shorter.

A different side to Morocco - This was a lovely trip to the coast. There were two main parts to the journey: travelling to and from the coast, and then the town itself. Our journey both ways could not have been better. The 3 hour trip flew by, as our very friendly driver, Iss, told us all about the local history and culture. By the time the trip finished, it felt like we had made a friend.
In Essaouira, we were given a comprehensive walking tour of the town, and learned all about its rich history. We were also given as much time as we wanted to explore, have lunch, or visit the beach.
Overall, we had a fantastic day - thank you Iss!
