Ayoube is great - Those guys made the perfect trip for us actually,we started with the pick up from our place with some other people on the bus and directly went to the first pause it was at local coffee there we had our breakfast for 20min. Next tizi ntichka the highest road pass in morocco we took 10min to take some pics . After directly to the qasbah (ksar) we spent 1 half hour (felt kinda tired after but it deserved) after we went to the lunch we had an open buffet looks amazing with view. At the end we went to the city there we saw studio atlas for me bc im a fun of prison break i liked it so much😄so thanks to ayoube our driver he gives to much of his energy to make everything smooth🙏🏻

Wonderful Tour - Wahid, our tour guide was wonderful. He picked us up on time, and dropped us off to a location we wanted. The tour itself was very long, and exhausting (approximately 12 hours). Sites were as described. Only negative thing about the tour is the lack of choice where to eat lunch. They bring you in a restaurant that at western standard is mediocre and quite pricey. Other than this observation, I do think that the tour was worth the money we paid.

Ait Ben Haddou & Atlas Studios - Be prepared for an early start & quite a bit if driving but an absolutely amazing day. There are plenty of stops for refreshment & loo breaks.
We started with viewing a berber village , had a breakfast stop, then went to view the Tizi n'Tichka pass. Breath-taking scenery with the Atlas mountains. Travelling on to the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou. We had a guide take us round , then had a very cheap 3 course lunch. This place was awesome, it's like going back to biblical times. Last stop was the Atlas Studios , also amazing . Our guides & bus driver were all really friendly, fun & informative. Great trip

Avoid, read description - We found the day well in the morning, not well in the afternoon. We drive a lot to finally go in front of an Atlas movie studio where you have to pay to visit. We refused to enter (fortunately because very average in, some his exit with anger regarding the price/performances). We wasted time waiting, we would have preferred to stay longer in Ait Ben Haddou. The title of the day with ouarzazate is misleading because after discussion it concerns the region and not the city you do not visit. When we come from abroad we do not have this subtlety, we do not perceive this difference between the city and the region.
The guide is great.
I think the visit to the studio is not clear enough in the description of the day at the time of booking and the average quality of the studio diminishes the quality of the day that would otherwise be nice. Have a good day to you.
