Tour Reviews

The website provides accurate descriptions of the activities. The tour guides assigned to our group at ben ait haddou (I can't recall his name, but he was a Game of Thrones extra and was wearing an orange turban) and the oasis berber hamlet (Aziz) were wonderful, amusing, and really kind. People in the places you visit are not at all pushy, in contrast to Marrakech. The hotel was better than expected in every regard. The meal was superb, and both the hotel and the tent on the desert were fairly comfortable. I strongly advise everyone to go on this 14-day adventure from Tangier.

The trip really surpassed my expectations. As I traveled through various berber villages and the Atlas Mountains, I learned a lot about the berber people. Your first night will be spent in a hotel in the highlands, then the next will be spent in the desert (both very cold). The trip is mostly spent driving, but there is beautiful landscape to enjoy, and the stops at the berber towns really make it worthwhile to get to the desert. Additionally, the village guides are wonderfully kind Berber people with whom you may laugh and who are frequently educated about the area you come from. Without a doubt, I'd advise doing this trip.

Brahim took us on a 14-day journey from Tangier to Casablanca. We traveled to many different locations, including the Imperial cities and the ancient medinas. We also visited a delightful Saturday market where I was thrilled to see so many interesting things. Brahim produced a delicious tagine for us. We next traveled to another gorgeous mountain town for lunch. The entire time, Brahim was really helpful and even threw in a few surprises.
