Amazing staff!! Great quality trip, lovely experience
Very well organised day - views are spectacular , guide was very knowledgable , food was fab! Great hike to the waterfall - out teen son enjoyed it all! ( just a note , ‘breakfast’ wasn’t till 3rd stop at 11.30 - so best to grab a drink/light bite at hotel if you can’t wait that long!)
A highly recommended excursion. We really enjoyed all the activity of the day. The walk to the waterfall very well. The guide very well
We took this excursion shared by the good reviews, in our case we were unlucky to coincide with a large family of Portuguese who kept screaming and the experience was quite deteriorated by it, it could have been somewhat relaxing in nature but it was a continuous bustle The food wasn't very plentiful and they wouldn't let you choose even between a tajín or another The guide Abdou was very friendly Some wake-up call to the group would have been helpful
Our Atlas tour guide, Sarah, was fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable. The timing of the tour was spot on, and she made sure to give us plenty of time for questions, ensuring we covered everything promised. The waterfalls, valleys, and 15-minute camel ride were definitely the highlights! I’m giving this 4 stars instead of 5 only because of a discrepancy on the website. The description implies lunch is included, but we were required to pay 70 Dirhams. Also, website suggests that this is 6 hour trip, while it is 8.5 hrs trip. Aside from the need for a website update regarding costs, I’m a very happy customer. Thanks
It’s a must do trip if in Marrakesh. It was superb, fantastic scenery amazing views and really gives you a feel for life in the Atlas Mountains. Our tour guide REDOUANE was so good. He was patient and very informative he is from the local area and answered all our questions, it was such an intresting trip one I would do again tomorrow if I could, thanks to redouane for a worthwhile experience 😊
Nice experience with several stops that help break the length of the road. The driver picked us up in the morning (contact the night before). 1 stop at a small shopkeeper, the second at an argan oil production cooperative (breakfast), third stop for a small hike or see a waterfall (the descent after seeing the waterfall is a bit sporty, provide good shoes, be careful if you have children). Meals in a Berber restaurant, although it is marked lunch, expect to pay 70dirhams per person, free for children (a little surprising, but flat starter and a cupcake with tea for this price...), end of the day in a plain down the Atlas before the return. Pretty complete excursion, good value for money.
A great experience, we had an amazing day thanks to our guide Abdou Ahansal. If you have a free day, do not hesitate to hire the activity.
We really enjoyed this trip! Our driver, Issmail, was very accommodating and knowledgeable, everything went smooth. The lunch spot also had an amazing view!
Pick up was on time, we did everything that was in the package. The food was very good, I just wished I had layered up it was freezing by the mountain. Overall it was a great experience and worth the price
