Beautiful day - A whole day on the road with driver Abdou to the Ourika Valley. Along the way I got a lot of information about Marrakech itself and its inhabitants. He was always waiting for us everywhere and provided a beautiful day with lots of information. Definitely recommended!

Ourika Waterfall - We were able to enjoy the waterfall of Ourika. Abu our guide allowed us to discover the country and explained the customs and allowed us to meet the Berber people. We recommend this very interesting walk. We warmly thank Abdou for his explanations and the transmission of his knowledge. Moreover it is very careful on the road. With our thanks Sonia and Didier

Highly Recommend - My friend and I went on a private day trip to Ourika with Abdou and had the best time. Abdou is super professional, knowledgeable, generous, kind, and was such a delight to spend time with. We learned so much on our trip and felt the value was well worth the experience. Abdou went above and beyond to ensure we had a good time, even making time to make additional stops at our requests. We had such a short time in Morocco, but absolutely loved our time and experience, and want to come back. When we do, Abdou will be the first person we call!

This is Morocco. - A culturally immersive drive, filled with stops showcasing Morocco’s artisanal prowess as well as their unwavering commitment to preserving their Berber heritage- as you will walk through an actual Berber home and discover how they go about their day-to-day. Abdou is a charismatic and accommodating driver who will make sure you get the full experience. A perfect full day excursion that also includes food by the river bank and a mountain hike that renders breathtaking views.
