Wonderful Day Trip to Atlas Mountains - This was a wonderful day trip. In the morning, we were picked up nice and early, on time, and had the opportunity to have breakfast as part of the experience at a Berber household. As we were the first ones, we got to experience their hospitality without interruption. The breakfast was great and the family was so warm and welcoming. Our driver, Oualid, was also excellent. He was so kind and respectful, stopping at places to allow us to take pictures and giving us the time to explore at our own pace. He also was very accomodating to a disabled family member we had with us. The rest of the day trip was also amazing as we had a lot of time to explore the area, buy items from the locals and had a wonderful lunch by the river.
The communication with the company in regards to booking was also great. They responded quickly and comprehensively, giving us all the information required to book. They were very trustworthy and I would definitely recommend them for a day excursion to the Atlas Mountains, especially for first time visitors to Marrakech.

Amazing tour with Oualid - We had a great time with our family, 2 adults and 2 kids ages 4 and 1. Oualid is an experienced driver with lots of good insights about the Berber people and culture. He showed us all the major attractions and stopped at some shops for us to buy locally sourced products like Argan Oil and a Tagine. We had a great experience and he took great lengths to take care of our kids, even helping us hold our daughter and son throughout the trip!

Excellent trip - Our driver Mohamed arrived exactly in time and was very good all day. The experience was fabulous and this was made easier with such a knowledgeable driver who we felt really wanted to look after us and was very respectful of our requests.
We went for a traditional breakfast in a house which was really interesting and didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Then we were able to ask the driver to stop for pictures of the mountains wherever we wanted.
We went to an Argan oil cooperative which again was interesting, there is zero pressure to go or purchase but we found the place and products fabulous and made some fabulous purchases. We can stock up online after we have gone home also. The cafe by the river was great with excellent photo opportunities and views.
The trip to the waterfall on our final stop was really lovely with loads of good photo opportunities. The walk up is fine, but would not be suitable for anyone not steady on there feet or not able to manage some larger steps/rocks. We hired a guide for the walk but not really sure it was needed. We went at midday and it was quieter for people but on the way back down it was so much busier. Passing places thin in some places so there was a wait for people going up to go past at certain points, would not have been as good if far more people. There are some shops on the way up to the waterfall and toilets are half way up (closed when we went past) and also a drink cafe at the top but no toilets there.
Overall we loved this trip and would highly recommend. I would highly recommend Mohamed as a driver if you can request.

Wonderful Private Guided Tour of Ourika Valley - Our private guide, Mohammed, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and flexible, in addition to being a great driver. The trip was full of beautiful scenery, and included a traditional Berber breakfast with a local family. The hike to the waterful (with an additional guide) was well worth the effort, and lunch was a great experience along the river.

Trip to Atlas Mountains - Brilliant experience driven by our most courteous and obliging Mohammed. He is so kind and makes sure everything goes smoothly. It is a great way to experience tea with a berber family and be driven safely in the beautiful scenery to the Atlas Mountains. Abdul was our guide up to the waterfall who made sure we got there safely. The colours of the stalls and cafes nestled by the river are stunning. I would thoroughly recommend this trip.

Great day out to experience some Moroccan culture - A great day out and all went smoothly. A perfect opportunity to experience some Moroccan culture and have a bit of fun riding a camel.
Zaki was our driver and guide for the day and was prompt in picking us up from the hotel and provided lots of information throughout the day and was always polite. Lovely air conditioned people carrier.
We had read the reviews about the challenging hike to the waterfalls so we ended our day after having lunch by the river at Setti Fatma village. As this was a private tour we could go at our own pace and we were never rushed.
Moncef at Atlas Excursions was prompt in replying to all my questions and was very patient with me and provided all the information we needed and, as mentioned, was happy to tailor the day to our wishes.
Thoroughly recommend this company and this tour.

The most kind and caring guides on this planet. ❤️ - Unis and his staff are beyond amazing. Words can't describe how wonderful these gentlemen are. My wife accidentally broke her foot and they were with us from beginning to end. At the hospital, pharmacy, hotel, and airport. I have so much love for these kind and warm friends. God Bless them and Thank you.
