Fun, insightful and professional tours I had a fantastic time with Atlas Geo Tours, Moha was an organised, welcoming and very enthusiastic tour guide for our university field trip this year. He has a vast knowledge of the geology and palaeontology of Morocco and makes a huge effort to ensure everything runs smoothly. I have no doubt that his astronomy tours are equally excellent. Thanks Moha for everything and see you next time in Morocco!

Mind-Blowing Family Adventure We had an incredible experience with Atlas Geo Tours and our guide, Moha. As a family of 5, we were looking for a unique and educational adventure in Morocco, and we found it with Moha. He is an expert in geology and astronomy and shared his knowledge in a fun and engaging way !!. The tour started from Marrakech, where Moha showed us the vibrant souks and introduced us to Moroccan culture. Then, we headed to Erfoud's geology area, where we learned about the Earth's history and saw stunning rock formations. Finally, we visited the Sahara desert, where we rode camels and spent the night in a traditional Berber camp and learned about desert astrnomy. Throughout the trip, Moha was attentive to our needs and made sure that every detail was taken care of. He was patient with our kids and made sure they were engaged and having fun. We highly recommend Atlas Geo Tours and Moha for a mind-blowing family adventure in Morocco!

Above my expectations I very rarely write reviews but this is certainly one of the best experiences I've ever had travelling. I had the pleasure of meeting Moha on a 10 day university field-trip starting in Fez and ending in Ouarzazate, with overnight stops in various locations along the way. Ever since he greeted as at the airport in Fez, he has been an absolutely wonderful host, very knowledgeable, kind and always going above and beyond to help. It has been an absolutely amazing trip with lots of great memories and that has been in large part due to Moha's excellent planning and logistics, I honestly couldn't have asked for more. It has been my first time in Morocco but definitely not my last, I am already thinking of a holiday with my family. I would wholeheartedly recommend Moha for his professionalism and excellent service to anybody looking to explore the beauties of Morocco.

If you want to get the best experience, you have to use Atlas Geo Tours!! Do it! Travelled with group of 10 as a uni field trip, to see geological sites for study and interest (Atlas mountains, anti Atlas, kem kem, mud mounds, star dunes etc), and WOW!!! Moha was AMAZING!!!! He has a vast knowledge of Morocco, geology, astronomy, well known by locals, hotels etc, managed to get us some very good deals. He worked very had to make sure that we were all happy, arranged everything for us, food (the lunch picnics were the best), vehicles, translated (speaks many languages). There was no stress, no problems, so smooth. It's been such a wonderful experience, this is a truly beautiful country with beautiful people. Thank you, so much Moha!!! I hope to see you again x
