Great day trip out with our guide Mr Abdul to the Atlas Mountains! - We very much enjoyed our day trip out. We started out around 9am and returned by evening. We visited several spots including markets, cooperatives, rivers and family run restaurant high in the Atlas Mountains. Lovely views, weather was good, sky’s were clear at the time. Our tour guide Mr Abdul was very knowledgeable on the tour and helpful in his explanation and could speak several languages.. He drove safely and helped us negotiate prices for products we wanted to buy in the shops. The transport vehicle was comfortable with air-conditioning.

A unique moment - An exceptional day with our guide Youness! He introduced us to beautiful places and exceptional people, from the argan oil cooperative, tea by the Ourika River, to a meal at a Berber family home and the many photo breaks. Thank you, Youness!

A day in the mountains with a more than professional guide Abdul - Thanks to our dear Guide Abdul, we spent the most wonderful day..A very great culture, we learned a lot about the past of the Berbers, and every question, an answer. Great discretion also. The meal at 2000m, tagine, couscous.... excellent. Thank you Abdul for your kindness, your cultural knowledge, your impeccable conduct. Isabelle and Rodolphe

The three valleys - My daughter and I had a wonderful day. Beautiful landscapes between ochre and greenery, peaceful places, at the bottom of the valleys, where we took the time to have tea, a delicious lunch in a Berber house... Thank you to Abdul, friendly, smiling, who knew how to guide us and explain us a lot.

Nice day trip with the best tajine we ate during our holiday 👌 - Nice day trip, Highlight is lunch in a Berber home! Our driver Cherif drove us all day safely through the area and prepared a great day with lots of information. We felt very comfortable with him. The stops for great photos were well planned, Cherif also always left us the time we needed and we could see a lot of the surroundings! We particularly enjoyed the stay at the Berber-Haus! We definitely ate the best tajine there 😊!! - as promised by Cherif! Overall we liked the day very much!!; Only the visit to a women’s cooperative for argan oil has a somewhat “oblique” aftertaste - as great as the location there was, the lady who explained everything to us has been very nice, you still can’t help but think that this place is specially designed for tourists.... because with every new arrival group everyone sang and drummed again, etc ...you don’t get to make oil ....😉😉 But all in all a great day and certainly more than recommended!
