Superbe journée passée avec transport privé. Notre chauffeur Hamza a été vraiment super! Très discret et très attentionné. Il nous a acheté des bananes fraîches avec de l'eau le matin. Après le lunch il a changé les bouteilles pour des froides. Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre journée en sa compagnie. Notre guide à Ait Ben Haddou etait Ali. lui aussi était vraiment super. Il a donné de belles informations. Nous recommandons cette activité qui est à voir absolument !

We absolutely loved the trip, don't mind 3h drive as you will be stuck to the window absorbing the mountains, culture and nature. Our driver Hamsa, made the stops on the most interesting parts of the trip to get refreshments and pictures. Ali our tour guide was amazing, from the local berber family, fluent in English and gave us a tour to the family house that is still living in Kasbah.

We booked the private tour as we are travelling with a baby. Our driver, Hamza, was so patient and kind, always anticipating our needs and making sure we were comfortable. Our Berber guide, Ali, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Ait Ben Haddou is just beautiful and it was worth the drive. This tour made it manageable for us to see it so thank you :)
