Thanks to the whole team for the great day we had. Jawad was very friendly and we shared good times throughout the trip (music, jokes, etc.). Abdou the guide, taught us a lot about traditions, interpersonal skills, was interested in us. It's a real pleasure for us to travel, to meet people like them. Thank you for everything !

Abrid was our driver and throughly looked after us from start to finish, making sure we enjoyed ourselves, was really educational in his tour but also very patient ensuring that we had a 5 star day. He took us to the Ourika Valley, drove us through the Atlas Mountains and then ended the day at a Bedouin family owned restaurant. Thank you Abrid.

The especially polite, very friendly and humble guide would certainly repeat it again. If you have doubts, take it without thinking twice because it is spectacular.

It was a very nice experience. We have discovered incredible places in Morocco that we did not know or existed. The guides very nice and very predisposed to everything. We've been looked after phenomenally. We would certainly repeat with them.

Mustafa, a very good driver, drove us for a day to Ourika in the Atlas at 2300 m. He comes from this place and knew very interesting ways to get there that you would not otherwise experience. Stops and stay he came immediately to . Also the return trip to Marrakech he had chosen great ! Really recommended !!!
