        • 1
          We begin the day’s journey at 9 a.m. when we will transport you from your accommodation in Marrakech to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains. Following the road running along the Ourika Valley, we come to a series of picturesque mountain villages that seem to defy gravity as they hang from the steep mountainside. The scenery is rugged, lush and exotic, revealing the stunning landscape awash in a variety of vibrant colors. We will first visit the home of a native Berber family who open their house in customary fashion to visitors. Here we will share tea and breakfast, which typically consists of homemade bread, honey, butter, and olive oil. The day trip will offer you the chance to do some camel trekking for a half an hour deep in the heart of the valley. Later in the day we will visit the famous shrine of Setti Fatma, a favourite destination of tourists and pilgrims alike. The path to Setti Fatma highlights beautiful mountain streams, rugged cliffs, green valleys and seven waterfalls. Here you will see how the native population has tamed and tended the mountainsides for generations to grow the things that make up the staples of the Berber diet. It’s a great photo opportunity here, surrounded by traditional homes, terraced fields, waterfalls, and the magnificent Atlas Range which surrounds it all. After our hike we will enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch in a charming local restaurant with great views across the valleys and up to the mountain summits. We will then transport you in comfort back to your hotel in Marrakech around 5 p.m.

          Wonderful trip in Morocco, highly recommend!
          We had a wonderful time on this tour. It was very comfortable, we stayed in some lovely places (a hotel in Chefchaouen, beautiful villa in Fez, comfortable and lovely tent in Merzouga, and the best riad in Dades) and saw a wide breadth of the country with changing landscapes and amazing sights. Our guide and driver, Hassan, was simply the best. Took care of us well, knew all the clean restaurants and stops, we felt safe and he always made sure we were comfortable and gave us a good feel for Morocco. Abdesalam who organizes the tours kept in touch and in our final destination, Marrakech, organized a taxi to take us to the airport early morning. We would highly recommend this tour and company. It is a great way to see a lot of Morocco in a short time. Thank you, Tan Mirth!!

          A fantastic morning in Marakech
          Had a great 4-hour private walking tour with pickup at our hotel. Mustafa, our guide, contacted us the day before and on the morning of our tour to clarify pickup. The tour itself was just what we wanted to see, the real Marakech. Mustafa was great for providing knowledgeable information without overloading us. Would highly recommend!!

          Picture perfect.
          The hotels were comfortable and clean. The tent in the desert was amazing. It’s an unmatched experience being out on the sand dunes. I would recommend bringing a head scarf as the locals will tell you it’s required but the price will be double what you’d pay if you got it ahead of time.

          Amazing! Worth the cost! Believe the good reviews!
          Our group is beyond pleased with this tour. Morocco is a bit an overwhelming place to travel (and only the bravest tourist would dare driving on its roads to get to the cool locations offered in this trip). Seeing the city from the desert, city, and various spots throughout the country side was so unique and so fun. Having all the work planned for you (organizing the camel rides, super nice tents to sleep in, tour guides, etc.) is very helpful. Every portion of the trip exceeded my expectations and for what you are paying this is a crazy good value. Basically a 5 day all included vacation (minus lunch and maybe an admission ticket to an exhibit if you stick around to the end of the last day which some people from our tour group did not because of flight times). We can't imagine having gone to Marrakesh without this tour. Azul/Abdesalam and our other guides were super charismatic and very communicative. Thanks for allowing us to experience your culture!

          Many information
          We did this half day tour with guide called Fatima. Visited all tourist attractions and finished at Jeema el Fna. I recommend doing this tour with local guide to get many information as there aren't many info boards in the palaces. Nice experience before spending afternoon at the souk 👍

          Excellent Half Day Tour & Experience!
          Fouzia was a terrific guide and catered our tour to exactly what we wanted to see. She was very knowledgeable, spoke easy to understand English and made sure we saw and understood every place we visited. Really fantastic tour, and saw everything expected and more! A+ Also the communication leading up to the tour with Abdeslam was worry free and perfect. Highly recommend
