What people are saying about Ifran

It was a nice tour, with a close-knit group and a very nice driver-escort, who seemed to be one of the group. He left us the time we wanted almost everywhere, I think I have never seen such a compliant escort with his guests, he explained to us that he was originally from the same areas we visited.I don't remember the name of this guy but he gave us a nice hike

The guide was very good and friendly. Spoke English and French. The pick up was on time from our riad. We had free time in every place that we stopped. The vehicle was a bit cramped. We were three in the back seat.

Amazing tour to Ifrane and the national park including other stops like the Berber cave and a lookout point plus having a break for delicious food. Driver/guide was awesome. Absolutely to recommend.

Nice trip to another part of the country. Beautiful views, beautiful nature, green and clean. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

A trip around Fez to discover quieter villages, nature and cute little monkeys. Excellent to disconnect from the big city.
