Review the $20 Atlas Mountains day trip from Marrakech, with a 45-minute horse ride, Imlil lunch, village walks, guides, and practical tips.
“The guide (Hamza Lhipi) was amazing and very knowledgeable about the tour and activities. Good communication and hands on assistance from Hamza and some really good planning. The tour was a lot better than what I expected and its hard to believe that we managed to fit in so much. The horse riding, argan cooperative, village tour, waterfall and mountain walk were amazing with some brilliant views and breathtaking scenery. The lunch at Imlil was superb with a lovely mix tagine with amazing views of the Atlas Mountains. Thank you Hamza for such an amazing experience and I hope to book again when back in Morocco, especially for the Toubkal…”

Ride through Marrakech’s Palmeraie and desert, meet well-cared-for horses, sip mint tea, and enjoy hotel transfers for $44.
“Me and my mrs really enjoyed this! Our driver was prompt and was very nice, and the horse representatives were really good. Jawaad and Salma treat their horses really well and went through the correct training with us. They took us around a beautiful location with great view and took very good pictures of us. They walked and ran with us. I asked Jawaad to let me speed bc I like speeding my car back home, he took me really fast, felt like I was riding into battle haha. Great experience would really recommend. And very good for price. They even ended with some tea!”
Escape Marrakech for Essaouira’s port, medina, argan-oil cooperative, beach, and optional camel, horse, or quad rides.
“The beach experience was amazing and the journey too. although we had a slight breakdown in transit, the driver was very apologetic and got the vehicle fixed quickly. we only did the day trip and the beach so can't comment on caramel or quad bike ride. I think it was good value fir money. the journey is a bit long but the drive and driver was very good and the 15 minutes break each way so good. It gives some room for a slight rest and snack but convinences if needed. It was overall a great experience, the beach in particular is very beautiful and lots of activities around there…”

The guide we had was so good at English and told us all about the different places and even stopped to take pictures of us with great camera skills.
