This was an outstanding value for money day-trip.
Fatima, our host was friendly and full of life. A lovely girl.
This is a long day, but I am so glad I did it.
Seeing the film studios where Gladiator and Kingdom of Heaven (plus many other films) were made, held me in awe. I am a big fan of director Ridley Scott and seeing where he made memorable scenes made my trip worthwhile. The local guide was terrific. He was knowledgeable and he made it fun.
The sights and walking around the Kasbah Ait Benhaddou were also fantastic. Not to be missed.
Other stops were made over the Atlas Mountains for lunch and toilet breaks. We stopped at an Argan Oil co-operative. You are given a presentation in the hope you buy their products. I would have gladly missed this.
I found I had to chase up Click Excursions about the pick-up point. If I did not, I feel this trip would not have happened and I would be left behind.
