An amazing must do trip in Marrakech - Amazing experience, absolutely enjoyed every part of this day from the beginning to the end. Definitely a must do. Omar was great, well organised, answered all queries before hand. And answered all our questions throughout the trip, Omar was very helpful when walking in the tricky parts. Took great photos. The food cooked by Omar's family was absolutely delicious, tried to upload photos but not able to do so.
Thank you Omar for an amazing day.

Wonderful, definitely recommend! - Brilliant day - Omar the tour guide was absolutely amazing. So knowledgable about the history and culture. Camel ride was fun and we were looked after very well. Visiting where they produce the argan oil was also really interesting and the products you purchase help the community. Drank Moroccan mint tea several times which was good hydration. Hiking along the Atlas Mountains, visiting the Berber villages (where Omar grew up so a plus that he was a local) and the lunch was delicious. This is a must do for anyone visiting Marrakech!!!

Do it - it is definitely worth a visit! - It has been a huge pleasure to be on the day trip - especially for that price it is a must if the areas around Marrakesh are to be explored - there is served a great lunch on the trip and even walking the trip can be done by most with a pair of good shoes!

A Moroccan must-do! - Omar was the perfect guide: very knowledgeable about Moroccan history, culture and religion and also a great photographer! Everyone was very well looked after throughout the day with delicious food and the best tea I’ve ever tried.

Deservingly five star - Booked this following no show with other provider day before! However completely different and much better experience with this one. Had a message night before from them to advise pick up details. On the day, had a call from Yasmin (tour guide) sharp at agreed time of 8:00 AM waiting for us outside the hotel to pick us up.
We were then joined by another family who were also picked up on this tour so in total was 10 of us.
Yasmin gave all the relevant information with right rapport and making sure we all understood and answer all of our questions. Carmel riding followed my Moroccan tea was great. Then we went to ladies doing argon oil and berben house/village. Then Atlas Mountain hiking was at right pace and Yasmin ensured we were comfortable all the time.
Finally the food that was also included was amazing! Not only Yasmin catered for us as vegetarian but also for my wife who is gluten intolerant. We had bread, salad, vegetarian tagine, couscous (rice for my wife), Moroccan sauce and apple pie for dessert (fruit for my wife). Food was plentiful.
We were then dropped off at our hotel.
Overall deservingly five star.

Outstanding - Without doubt the best excursion I’ve done on any trip I’ve ever been.
10 hours. Camel Ride in traditional costume, Breakfast, Moroccan tea, hike to waterfalls and dinner at the family home of our guide, Omar, in the Atlas Mountains. A depth of information, and helps to foster a good bond between all the people on the tour. This tour would have been a bargain at double the price. Omar has a great eye for a photograph and will take photos with your own cameras/mobiles.
