A genuinely incredible experience that we will never forget! Muhammad number 1 was extremely knowledgeable kind, and skilled at creating an easy, relaxed atmosphere. We felt totally at home in the comfy cool air conditioned car. We saw the sunrise and sunset and though tired by the end we didn't want to blink because every turn in the road led to a different incredibly beautiful view! Everything was organised to perfection. We arrived at each location without crowds and never felt rushed. My (nearly) 80 year old mother was treated beautifully by our wonderful guide at Hait Ben Haddoun, who even let us rest a while in his father's house and offered it as a place for my mother to stay if the climb was too difficult for her (which it wasn't thanks to the unhurried pace, kindness and generosity of our guide). The mountains, villages and views, were more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. We were looked after exceptionally well, with refreshments, traditional meals and clean toilets provided. Thankyou!

Great tour to experience the Atlas with scenic landscapes and villages. The Kashbah of Air Ben Haddou was simply stunning and it was great to learn about the Berber people. Our tour guide and driver, Mohamed was great, passionate about Morocco and super friendly. Best tagine lunch ever. Had a great day.

We had an amazing day trip from Marrakech to the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou with Mohamed. He was not only an excellent driver but also a wonderful guide, making the long journey enjoyable with his knowledge, kindness, and professionalism. Everything was perfectly organized, and he went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy throughout the day. We highly recommend Mohamed and Morocco Inspiring Tours to anyone visiting Marrakech—he truly made our experience unforgettable!

We had a nice, full day on this tour from Marrakech to Ait Ben Haddou. The drive across the Tizi n'Tichka mountain pass allowed us to see a lot of stunning sites, including Berber villages and ever-changing landscapes. Visiting Ait Ben Haddou was a highlight, and all entrance fees were included, making the day seamless. Our guide was great—he helped us translate and barter at a roadstop for some pottery, which felt far more authentic than shopping in the Medina. The day was well-paced for exploring, photographing, and soaking in the culture.

Led by Mohamed #1, who was bright, friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke several languages. An outstanding local guide and skilled driver with an eclectic playlist. Mohamed’s understanding of Berber land and culture (his family lives in the High Atlas) made the long drive through the mountain passes and valley very enjoyable, with plenty viewpoints and stops (including a berber breakfast and a stop at a women’s cooperative). Aït Benhaddou was impressive, well preserved and not overly crowded. Guided by a local (only 5 families reside in the fortified village) and followed by a beautiful lunch on a terrace that overlooked the UNESCO site. This was the most memorable day trip and a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. We will definitely book with Morocco Inspiring Tours should we visit again. All the best to Mohamed with his studies and future endeavours. Tanmirt!

Fantastic experience and great service by our driver/guide Mohammed !! The driver explained a lot from the locations we passed and found the best photo spots. This made our Marakkesh visit complete.
