We had a great time with our private driver, Karim! He was very knowledgable and spent a lot of time taking us to interesting areas in the Atlas Mountains. On our way to Ait Ben Haddou, it snowed! He stopped whenever we wanted to take photos and stopped for us to see some berber carpets on the way. On our way back, we wanted to see the town of Ouarzazate, which was not on our original itinerary. He brought us there anyways! Karim was really wonderful-- we felt in good hands as a driver, and we'd highly recommend going with him.
One downside: we did not enjoy our guide at Ait Ben Haddou Kasbahs, which was not our driver's fault, although the Toubkal Guide company did contract with him. We felt rushed through the tour and he was not very knowledgable about the site. Ait Ben Haddou Kasbahs was honestly pretty underwhelming-- seems like a bit of a tourist trap. The best part of our day was the scenic drive!
