    We had a great day in the Ourika valley with Ahmed as our private driver/guide. He arranged a guide to take us up the 7 waterfalls at Setti Fadma as well as stopping to see views and interesting sites along the way. We had lunch at aurocher, a beautiful spot with great food on the road to Oukaimeden which we would also highly recommend. Ahmed is a kind friendly and knowledgeable person and also and excellent driver. In booking via WhatsApp the company were very responsive and addressed all our questions and requests. We felt the fees were reasonable for a private driver with a nice Mercedes Vito minibus. We would not hesitate to recommend this company.

    we used Driss as our driver on three different occasions when we were in Morocco. The airline lost our car seat and we searched for a safe driver who also had a car seat for a 1.5 year old- we are so thankful we found Driss! He picked us up in a nice vehicle, we were able to safely drive around with our kiddo. He was always in time and very quick to communicate. He was a very safe driver!

    Driss was our dedicated private tour guide on our trip to Marrakech which included airport transfers, day trip to berber villages and atlas mountains and another day trip to Ouzoud waterfalls. He is very kind and helpful and was always on time (early in fact). As women travelling on our own we felt very safe with him. The vehicle used was very spacious and comfortable and Driss himself is a very good safe driver. His English is very good and of course his French is even better. What I also liked is his prompt response whenever I WhatsApp him. I knew if I needed anything he would be there to help. I would highly recommend his services to others. We look forward to seeing Driss on our next trip to Morocco!

    The guide was really nice and friendly. Took good care of us going up the mountain. I proposed to my girlfriend, and the guide helped me find a really nice quiet spot with an amazing view. Amazing experience for us.

    I have used this company for several trips made in the Marrakech area. The drivers are always very nice, professional and kind. I always feel very safe. Communication to plan the trips is easy, and for me as a facilitator of Yoga retreats, taking my small groups on excursions I can always relax 100% when using this company. The cars are super nice and comfortable. I will use the company again for my coming Yoga retreats. Thanks!
