    Our guide Rashid was exceptional. Very informative throughout and ensured we were enjoying ourselves. Our driver Bahja did a great job keeping us on the winding roads and picking us up extra early.

    The journey was very long but it was well worth it! The views through the mountains were amazing and we loved the tour of the film studio and Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou! The extra special element of the trip was our driver and guide who allowed for plenty of comfort breaks and even offered us water! Abdelhak Hadek was a very safe driver - thank you Abdel, you are No. 1 driver in Morocco!

    Abdul and Aiman were brilliant and the tour was really interesting. Ait Ben Haddou is really interesting but be warned there are a lot of uneven steps and it is not easy in the midday sun. The only issue we had was that the driver who collected us from our hotel and dropped us to the main transport didn’t ensure we were on the bus and so we nearly missed the transport. Don’t let the driver leave till you are on board the main minibus

    Det var 10 timmars program men dey böev 14 timmar. Vänligen tar bort to timmer och lägg 14 timmar. Annars folk blir förvirrad och missar andra planering pga ni skrev där 10 timmer. Det är inte något enskat tillfälle. Det är så.
