Your next stop is in Ait Ben Haddou, a small fortified village classified by UNESCO as a world heritage since 1989. Studded with crenelated spires and richly decorated. Nowadays is used as an ideal location for filming scenes

Lack of communication made the start of the trip for me, and others, very confusing. Be prepared to wait in a van for 45 mins without explanation, to be afterwards put in a full van of people who all booked a similar or different tour. It was a nice trip, but the visit to the town is basically part of longer tours that go for 2+ days to the desert.

This trip was amazing. Our guide was mourad and he was excellent. Told us about the history and showed us bits off the beaten track. He also stopped in many places to take pictures. The place itself was eerily quiet but in a good way. All in all a great trip.

I was in contact with Karim via what's app and our stunning driver was Mourad. This trip was one of a kind experience, with many surprise visits to unexpected cool sites. My wife and I had an exceptional experience and I highly recommend this team. The minivan was a black Ford, which had lovely air conditioning. The car was very clean and nicely washed, simply in excellent shape. Mourad is a stunningly safe driver who can get you to places in no time. Additionally, he speaks excellent English and knows a lot of the local history of the area. From start to finish, we felt super safe and well taken care off. To top it off, we re-hired Mourad for another custom route from Tamatert to Safi, then El Jadida, Azemour, and lastly Casablanca. The price was fair and once again an amazing experience. He knew all the cool spots and made it happen.

Nous avons passé une excellente journée, pris de superbes photos, vu des paysages à couper le souffle grâce à notre guide Jamal. En plus de cela l agence nous a surclassé dans un 4×4 qui nous a permis de sortir des sentiers battus en famille.
