Fabulous day out! Great value for money. Jamal picked us up from our hotel and then we went to pick up another couple, so a total of 8 on the tour. We saw various sights on the way as we headed into the Atlas Mountains , we had a short trek up to jamals grandmother's house where we sat on a roof top terrace with snow falling while we ate a chicken tagene. It was wonderful, we all loved the food, we then drove to the desert where we had a camel ride which was a lot of fun as we were all dressed up for the occation. Jamal was a great host and very funny. When I first booked the trip I don't think my 5 friends were very keen but it has been a highlight of our week away.It was a magical day trip to the mountains.

A great guide who described passionately about his ancestry. It was a trip into Barber culture, history, cuisine and tradition. Highly recommended.
