“This Tour Was Very Well Worth It & Good But Most Of All That Was Because We Had Amazing Tour Guides. ABDERAHIM Knew Very Good English & Explained Everything In Good Details. We Also Felt Very Trusted With Him, He Knew The Village Very Well So Getting Lost Wasn’t A Thing :) We Had Camel Ride To Start With But You Can Pay Extra For Small Amount For Option To Do Quad Biking Instead Which I Thought Was A Great Add On As Optional.. We Then Went Breakfast & Saw How They Make The Argan Oils & Peanut Butter By Hand Etc Please Bring Cash To TIP Your Tour Guide…”

Then we had a traditional meal by the river. Abdul was going above and beyond helping to the ones that were struggling with a hike. Camel ride at the end with a beatiful Atlas scenery in the background was unbelievable. I honestly recommend those guys. Thank you once again”
