Thank you so much MoHa and Youssef for a wonderful day. Everything was well organised: I received information about departure the evening before with a link how to get to the meeting point, because the car couldn't reach my hostel. Although it is a long day with a lot of kilometers with the stops it is well planned. The Atlasstudios were great to visit, but I really adored Aīt Ben Haddou. I absolutely recommend this trip and hopefully you'll get MoHa as your guide and Youssef as your driver! Thanks to both of them it was a wonderful day!

Long but amazing day! The driver charaf and assistant MoHa were amazing, so welcoming and happy to answer any questions. They broke up the drive to the studios nicely, allowing for toilet breaks, photo opportunities, and refreshments. The ait ben haddou guide Adbellah was AMAZING, so knowledgeable, welcoming and happy to answer any questions about the culture and history of the berber people and the films made in the village. We happily tipped him for his time! I would recommend bringing some water with you, and it's a long day! but worth it !

Brilliant tour and exceptional value! The drive through the Atlas mountains is impressive, as is the list of movies made at Atlas Studios in Ouarzazate! The walk to the top of Ait Benhaddou was one of the highlights of our Morocco holiday! Abdelhadi our tour guide made sure everything went smoothly, had sufficient stops to stretch legs & get snacks, and organised group photos at key spots! He even went above and beyond to help us get an item we left in the van! Our driver Khalid navigated the mountain roads expertly! Definitely recommend this tour!
