Atlas Mountains Day Trip

Published on Feb, 2025

Anouar was our driver and guide. We had an amazing day especially because Anouar was welcoming and friendly. We gained lots of knowledge and history of the Berber way—of-life in the Atlas Mountains. He introduced us to some lovely people at the Ben Haddou Kasbah and kept us entertained throughout the long day. We felt safe and welcomed where ever we went. Thank you! Simon and Jacky from cold and wet England. .

Very good private trip with Lahcen. Great scenery, great conversation, many picturesque stops, absolutely no hassle.

Nice trip with top guide.

Today we did a fantastic day trip from Marrakech to the old Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou & Telouet-valley. Our guide Khalid, a friendly and sympathetic man, made our day to be the best of our stay in Marrakech. Thanks Khalid!

Beautiful morning visit in Marrakach

Published on May, 2021

Mouhssine was a pleasure to meet and a wonderful tour guide. On the tour I had in April 2019, I got a deeper understanding of the history of the Saadian Tombs and Bahia Palace. He stopped and explained the various areas, sharing history and background. The Bahia Palace was incredible! Mouhssine was so kind to take pictures too. Throughout my visits, he shared little gems about Morocco culture, food, and places to visit. As we walked through the bustling streets and markets, Mouhssine made sure I was safe - always checking. It was only the second day I was in this beautiful city and a wonderful way to get a nice overview. I know my my visit would not have been the same if I didn't have Mouhssine guiding and explaining to me.

Look no further if you want to visit Ait Ben Haddou

Published on Feb, 2020

Not really knowing much about what a trip to Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou entailed, we met Khalid first thing in the morning and embarked into one of the best trips I’ve had while travelling in a foreign country. Perhaps it was to do with us being virtually the same age or that we were in the same car for over 6 hours but the journey felt like taking a road trip with a close friend. Apart from the fun and lighthearted atmosphere that Khalid gave off, we learned about the Arabic/Berber language & culture, the political atmosphere in Morocco and plenty of local tips & tricks. I would definitely recommend this trip to kickstart your trip in Marrakech. The tour guide for Ait Ben Haddou (if you’re a couple aim for at least a 10EUR tip) was actually from the century old town and was extremely knowledgeable as well. Look out for a guy called Ali. The journey to/from the site is lengthy so prepare appropriately. Overall 10/10 trip so look no further if you’re looking to visit Ait Ben Haddou.
