A well-organised tour from start to finish with friendly, knowledgeable guides! Both our driver and our guide in the mountains were fabulous - couldn't have asked for better hosts. The day started with a pickup from our Riad followed by a camel-ride and visit to an argan oil cooperative. We then drove into the mountains the guide led us up to the mountains, through waterfalls and fantastic scenery, all the while giving us an insight into Berber life and culture. We stopped off halfway for a mint tea break before reaching our peak. We then began our descent to a Berber guesthouse where we had a yummy meal on the rooftop terrace accompanied with a stunning view of the mountains. All in all, it was a great experience and a must-do, if only to get away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech.
I rate the attraction very highly. Everything looked like the description, and the whole tour lasted even longer than we expected. Our guide was just perfect and very caring. Great experience!
Fantastic and insightful. Camel ride a bit obvious but fun. Went to a traditional market which was completely eye-opening and real education. Great hosting by our guide with great insight into the community and culture which I had no idea of. Felt both humbled and enlightened at the end. Definitely, recommend.
I can't say enough kind things about the guide. The whole day itself is amazing - the views from the mountains, the smell of fruits and spices in the Berber market, the great conversations had over mint tea and the best tangines we had in the village-The camel ride but our guide went above and beyond to make us comfortable.
Great experience! Our host was a very good guide. The mountain was beautiful. I had a very good time.
It was a beautiful trip. Our guide was brilliant. Very helpful and nice. The whole thing is well organised and truly a great experience.
Incredibly friendly and enthusiastic workers. All previous reviews about how great it is are true. Lots of different elements, lovely food and is exactly as described; we had a camel ride, saw the waterfall, trekked, had lovely food and learnt a lot about the Berber culture.
