Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I spent two days in the Atlas Mountains and surrounding regions with Brahim. What could have been a standard sightseeing tour became an extraordinary journey, thanks to Brahim’s professionalism, warmth, and deep knowledge of his homeland. Our trip began in Imlil, a picturesque village often considered the gateway to the Atlas Mountains. Brahim organized the perfect balance of adventure and hospitality. After I hiked a beautiful mountain trail with his best friend Mohamed; Brahim welcomed me into his family home where he and his wife Aïcha prepared a traditional Berber lunch. The following day we crossed the Tizi n’Tichka pass, the highest major road in the Atlas Mountains at roughly 2,200 meters. In Ouarzazate, we explored Atlas Studios, famously known as the “Hollywood of North Africa,” followed by the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Aït Benhaddou. On the way back, nature treated us to a surprise: a sudden haboob, a swirling desert sandstorm that turned the journey into yet another unforgettable memory. Brahim stands out not just for his organizational skills and knowledge, but also for the personal care he brings to his work. He treats travelers as friends, not clients, and his ability to combine professionalism with genuine hospitality creates an experience that feels both seamless and deeply authentic. If you are planning to explore Morocco’s mountains, valleys, or desert landscapes, I cannot recommend Brahim enough. His passion for sharing Morocco ensures that every moment feels meaningful, whether you’re hiking remote trails, sitting down to a family meal, or visiting world-famous landmarks. Brahim transforms a trip into a memory you will cherish long after you’ve returned home!"
"Hasan has great knowledge. He clearly loves his home and his people. He was very focussed on our interests and took us to places we would not have found on our own."

"My husband and I had a marvelous time touring the Oaurzazate region of Morocco with Omar. He speaks perfect English and he is an entertainer. Lots of stories and other information to share with us. Omar had a very comfortable car and he is a safe driver. He is very thoughtful and helped continue our vacation by recommending an excellent restaurant and arranging a car for our return. We highly recommend him for your tour. "
"It was a wonderful trip all around. The organisation, advance information, car and Omar‘s driving were excellent. What we enjoyed most was that Omar gave us a lot of information about the history, way of life and traditions! We learned so much and really appreciated Omar‘s openness and sense of humor. He also always met our special requests and provided us with good coffee, for exemple. Thank you very much again, Omar. We will keep our Marocco vacation in best memory also thanks to the encounter with you! The four babouchcas😉 "
"Brahim understood our groups expectations and limitations and ensured we got the absolute best out of our day. We had an excellent trip through the Atlas Mountains with a wonderful lunch in a 300 year old mountain home. Brahim was patient, kind and very informative. His driving was calm and gentle and it felt very safe to be with him on the mountain roads Would highly recommend Brahim as a guide. "
"We hebben een fijne dag gehad naar Aït-Ben-Haddou met Omar. Omdat het een privé trip is, kun je zelf tijd indelen. Maar tips van Omar waren hartstikke leuk en hele dag super georganiseerd. Ook net wat anders dan de standaard trips. Leuke andere route en Interessante toelichting. Al met al een top dag. "
"Omar was a wonderfully welcoming, friendly and generous guide on our full day excursion in to the Altas mountains. His love, knowledge and understanding of the region was clearly evident throughout the journey so we learned so much about the land, its people and their culture. We highly recommend Omar as he’s fun, passionate…and a very safe driver to have on such winding high mountain roads. Thank you Omar! "
"Traveling with Brahim to the Atlas Mountains was an unforgettable experience and a fascinating travel. We discovered the magic of the Berber culture and the beauty of the Atlas landscapes. Brahim has a wonderful human quality. As a Berber, he’s a perfect example of kindness, generosity, simplicity and joy of life. He constantly payed attention to our confort and wellbeing, and he adapted to our preferences completely. He speaks several languages including Spanish and is a great photographer! His colleague and driver was the perfect companion, we liked him very much too. We forgot our glasses in the car and Brahim came back to our hotel in person to give them to us. We were really touched by the beauty of our trip and the human and professional qualities of our guides. "
"Omar took us on trips around Marrakesh and showed us the highlights, took us to local restaurants and was very flexible whenever we wanted to stop or get something to eat and drink. He has extensive knowledge of the region and his people. He came up with great suggestions for us to do, all tailored to our personal interests. We loved it, if you go Marrakesh, go Omar!"
"Moulay Abdelouahed ist ein sehr sympathischer, zuverlässiger Reiseführer. Er hat uns unbeschreiblich beeindruckende Landschaften gezeigt und eine wunderbare Besichtigung eines Khaspars in dem fast alleine waren organisiert. Wir hatten ein tolles Mittagessen bei sehr freundlichen Einheimischen. Wir haben uns auf den teilweise sehr holprigen Straßen im Gebirge jederzeit sehr sicher gefühlt."
