Thanks to our driver ,Morad, and out tour guide, Simo, our trip to Casablanca became such a wonderful day. They nicely managed timings/tickets to make sure we see the iconic places in Casablanca. We had one of the delicious launch in the select restaurant of our tour.
Although today was a cloudy/cold/rainy day of October, this trip compensated all and we got the most of it.
We are having to choose to visit Casablanca since this city is nothing like Marrakech.

Reviews: Atlas Mountain & Berber Villages and Waterfalls Day Trip from Marrakech

Absolutely fabulous trip with our guide Hassan. We were collected from our hotel in an air conditioned minibus and driven to the Atlas Mountains.
We stopped on the way at shop selling Moroccan pottery , carpets and rocks- very beautiful (they accept card payments) then arrived at the mountains for a trek. Wear good sturdy shoes and it’s quite a strenuous walk/climb up but the views are spectacular. Hassan was amazing and he helped me over the small bridges and up the path - I have arthritis in my knees and managed the walk but I wasn’t prepared for the hike.
We climbed up to the highest village in the mountains and ended up at a little restaurant where we had food (€6) food was amazing. Then we walked back to the minibus which had driven up to meet us
Would totally recommend this trip but please be prepared for quite a hike. Also be prepared for the hike taking Moroccan time- we learnt that a Moroccan 5 is roughly equivalent to a Scottish Highlands 5 minutes (in real life 20 minutes lol)
Thank you Hassan from Tracey and Jackie!

This was a truly memorable experience and by far one of the most enjoyable things I did here in Morocco, with my group. The whole event was quite well-organized, which added to the overall experience. We were picked up and brought to the Agafay Desert, where we rode camels for about 15-20 minutes. To be honest, I don't think I could have done much longer as they were quite uncomfortable, but it's all part of the experience eh. Riding the camels at sunset and taking photos of the mesmerizing view from the desert was something I had never experienced before.
After the camel ride, we had dinner, which consisted of a chicken tagine with potatoes, couscous, chickpeas, and bread. We all ended up sharing, which was rather nice. To top everything off, there was a desert campfire where everyone gathered to enjoy the music, dancing, singing, conga lines, and an impressive fire breather.
All in all, it was about 5 hours, but this was a truly enriching experience for the weather, the people you meet, the food, the culture, the music... Everything! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it if you are in Morocco; this is something you just have to do!
