We had an amazing day visiting Atlas Mountains and that was largely due to our amazing drive and guide Omar. Omar was so kind and thoughtful, he continually went out of his way to make our day brilliant.
Firstly, he picked us from our accomodation which was futher from the centre (other tour companies didnt want to pick us up). He took us to see a few artisans, including a pottery demonstration and argon oil demonstration. Next he took us to a large rug cooperative where we bought a rug. Omar was really patient whilst we spent a long time here. Next he took us to the start of the waterfall and introduced us to a great local hiking guide. Beforehand, Omar gave us the choice to pay for our hiking guide - he (Abdul) was well worth it. Abdul was brill and guaging what route we could manage. He helped us all the way, including supporting my 11 year old in the more challenging sections.
Omar and Abdul were both brilliant and made our day, especially Omar - he even bought us water, recommended prices and even lent us some curreny at a shop that didnt accept card.
