I am a tour leader of avventure nel mondo and I was in touch with Mohamed for the organization of the tour. Everything was perfect: hotel, the bus driver Houssein and all the logistic. I strongly advice Tizi Trekking for the tour organization.
The cooperation with Mohamed was excellent. He is always at disposal of the group to support and solve any minimum problem. For sure I reccomend him if you have to organize a trip in Marocco. Accomodations and driver always very good!
with a group of friends we did a trek on the Atlantic coast as a Essaouira destination; all organized to perfection: the trek with guides, meals and bivouac. Mohamed contacted before departure was timely in the answers and arranged everything perfectly. very positive experience.
I have used different services for me and my group through Mohamed, (excursions, overnight stays, itineraries, van rental), his professionalism and his availability in advising places guides and excursions is really something of surprise! we spent a night in the desert that we will never forget ... with the patience of its drivers we have attracted half from Morocco, its predisposition and that of its team is something unique! There isn’t No word .... yes one ... thank you Mohamed !
