This is the 2nd tour we have booked with this company. On this one, Younes built us a custom package that took us from the waterfalls of the Ourike Valley to a luxury overnight camp in the Agafay Desert. It was nothing short of magical. The attention to detail and our wishes cannot be matched. It is like having our own personal genie. Absolutely the best tour company in Morocco. We cannot wait to return and travel with them again!
We went as a large of friends and wanted to experience Marrakesh completely. We were not disappointed. The tour guide was very friendly and accommodating to our needs. He delivered a fantastic service and I will be using him again. We all felt like He was one of us. Will be recommending to my family and friends also.
The excursion to this globally valued place is essential, because it is our case, apart from stopping our guides in excellent places to see and photograph the landscape, the visit also consisted of a visit to a Berber village, and entering a house where they showed us all their rooms and rooms, to finish in a long room of tea, where they took out an Arab teapot and prepared a delicious and hot mint green tea, while in English we partied about life in these places, to then go to a typical Moroccan restaurant, to then return to see the different villages that exist there, we even hiked through a river and coincided with the walnut stranding by the locals.
<p>Excellent tour picked up by sherif on time from our riad, who gave us info on the way to the valley, also stopped at an argan oil cooperative, so could see how made . Was handed over to the very lovely adil our guide was excellent, wear proper boots, difficult hike but worth it, Waterfalls fabulous</p>
<p>Good trip, great way to see real life in Morocco. Take good shoes though, there is a trek up to the waterfall which is amazing but I was unprepared in sandals and it spoiled the experience a bit.</p>
<p>Brilliant tour and guide, Younes! We went to the waterfalls and valley of Ourkira. It was a lovely trip taking in a visit for breakfast to a Berber house as well as lunch by the river in the sunshine next to the mountains. Younes made us feel safe arguing with a local when he gave us bad water! 5*</p>
