Overall, it was a good day trip from Marrakesh. The guide at Ait Benhaddou was very informative and was able to speak a number of languages so that all the passengers could learn about the history of Ait Benhaddou.
We weren't expecting to be as long as we were as there was a mix up with our booking, however the bus driver ensured we were able to get back to our hotel despite being so late.
Ait Benhaddou was the highlight. We drove the extra distance to Quarzazate but had little time to explore this, and so if I'm honest, I would have preferred to have gone straight back to Marrakesh.
The bus was completely full. As we were on the bus last, there were only seats at the back of the bus, meaning that we did not have any view of the surrounding countryside.
We stopped for lunch on the way, the food was good, very reasonable and the staff got the food out quickly.
All in all, the trip was well organised (despite the mix up) but be aware that it is a long day, with a lot of time spent on the bus.
