Excluded:

A 1-day excursion to High Atlas mountains trip will start at Marrakech, from which we will depart towards Ouarzazate, which is a city known for its calmness. We will be driving through the High Atlas Mountains, specifically the Tizi N Tichka mountain pass, which is 2260 meters high. We will meet many small Berber villages along the way, at which we will make multiple stops in order to appreciate their magnificent landscapes. We will reach our first destination of the trip, which is the old Ksar of “Pacha Glaoui”, also known as the Kasbah of Talouet.

The next Kasbab that we will visit is the fortified Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou. Ait Ben-Haddou is a recognized UNESCO world heritage site, and a location where many important international films were set, like Gladiator, The Kingdom of Heaven, Sahara, etc. Next, we will pay a visit to two last Kasbahs, Taourirt and Tifoultoute, before finally returning where our 1-day excursion to the Atlas Mountains from Marrakech comes to an end in the afternoon.

Marrakech to desert trip The tour exceeded expectations and was great! Our driver, Youssef, is a helpful guide. It gives a real lesson in geography and local history. He showed us the Atlas Mountains and then we rode camels across the sparkling sands of the Sahara at sunset. Ah, the camp was luxuriously lovely. My family and I recommend this tour and company. We are grateful to Youssef for making our experience wonderful and stress-free.

A trip to remember My mother and I have had the best experience in our whole life. Other friends of us had recommended Hassan from Let’s Visit Morocco travel from their last travel to Morocco and they were right as we had a lifetime experience with him and the company he works for, they organised the whole trip from the pick up and drop off in Casablanca, we really have been taken care of and we were in safe hands throughout the tour. If you are considering visiting Morocco anytime soon, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Let’s Visit Morocco company and choose Hassan as your guide! Thank you for everything, and see you soon!

Memorable and Adventurous Custom Trip This was my third trip to Morocco for a length of two weeks. I was accompanied by Hassan from Lets Visit Morocco. We were flexible in the itinerary, which is very important to me, and travelled safely. Hassan was very familiar with the desert regions and knows the popular spots and cute riads to stay at. His agency is well connected in all parts that I visited, and there was always a contact to help! His English was proficient, which makes a difference if you want to have more understanding of all the cultural experiences. I felt safe and well cared for. Data is incredibly cheap to get, I would recommend getting data loaded to your local SIM right away if you are not on Roaming, for an extra layer of caution even if you don't plan to stray away. We managed to fit a lot into the two weeks, got some incredible photos, and ate very well! I would recommend to travel with them in a heartbeat - they contributed greatly to the experience. Thank you very much Hassan!

PERSONAS INCREÍBLES EN UN PAIS MARAVILLOSO Viaje apasionante, dirigido por personas maravillosas, no tengo espacio suficiente para describirlo todo, y para agradecerle a Hassan, el trato recibido, la organización, el equipo, y todo lo vivido gracias a su implicación para que todo fuera perfecto, gracias por su sonrisa interminable. Lo recomiendo para todo el mundo, y para todas las edades. Algunos se llevan arena en botellas para recordar el desierto, yo me llevo el desierto y a su gente en mi corazón para siempre. Ciudades increíbles, con lugares preciosos de encanto inigualable. En cuanto pueda volveré. Millones de gracias Hassan.
