Best Marrakesh Day Trip
Fantastic day trip, Omar was so knowledgeable, kind, and open to additional questions.
Wonderful day with camels, hiking, lunch
We had an unforgettable experience exploring the Atlas Mountains, thanks to our wonderful guide, Hassan, and our excellent driver, Said. From start to finish, the entire tour was smooth, informative, and full of authentic moments. Hassan was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing local history, culture, and traditions in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand. He made every stop meaningful and never rushed us, allowing us to truly appreciate the landscapes and the people we met along the way. His warmth and genuine passion for the region made the journey feel personal and special. Our driver, Said, was equally impressive—skilled, patient, and always ensuring we felt safe and comfortable on the winding mountain roads. His calm and friendly presence added so much to the experience. Thanks to Hassan and Said, our day in the Atlas Mountains became one of the highlights of our time in Morocco. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable adventure.
Wonderful Cultural & Nature Experience!
This excursion was absolutely amazing, a perfect mix of stunning nature and authentic cultural discovery. Our guide, Nezha, was fantastic: knowledgeable, kind, and so attentive to everyone in the group. I learned so much about local traditions, especially Berber culture, while enjoying the beautiful landscapes. A big thank you to Hassan, the tour operator, for his exceptional support before and during the trip. He made everything easy and smooth from start to finish. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Marrakech who wants something truly special!
Amazing day. Great value and a brilliant guide
Amazing day out for such a good price. We were collected and taken for a 15 min camel ride dressed in berber outfits. Hassam was all the time giving us great information and the history of places and traditions. He also spent ages using our cameras to take great pictures and videos of us together which you normally dont get . We then went to the ladies argan oil place . We hiked up the mountain which for us was fine as we are generaly fit but some could find it tough. ( i only had sandles which were fine but recomend trainers as some really steep bits which loose stones) He however waited and helped anyone struggling. We learnt so much and saw amazing views. We went to the small waterfalls ( i thought it was the big ones so disapointed but that was our mistake) we had lunch at the guides family resturant. So much food it was delicious. Was taken back to our riad around 6.30 pm so a long day but totally worth it. Only cost £30 odd english pounds. The guide Hassam was brilliant The day was great fun and we learnt and saw loads Really recomend this company
An amazing day trip to Atlas mountain ….
Omar was very very kindly and helpful more than I expected. He ask me all times if I want to take more pic or video. The price was very very good We get a ride of Camel for 15min We visit and tried a tropical Berber breakfast And we learn much about culture and information about different village We had an amazing lunch with our group. We walk hiking about 2-3 hours I think we raise to 1700m over the sea. So I was very satisfied with our trip ( I will not be able to do anything if I stayed in the Center of Medina and it will cost me more times ) I recommended Omar 100% I will make editing and make a video about that on YouTube ( Wesam Shaya )
