    Following breakfast, your friendly local driver-guide from Morocco Tourism Packages will pickup you in the morning from your Fes accommodation. The passageways moves downward towards the beautiful Middle Atlas Mountains, with a variety view of hills and lakes as well small Berber towns. About 1.5 hours later, we will reach Ifrane, a clean and serene city where the European-style architecture, green parks and high-altitude air can transport visitors out of Morocco for an afternoon. You will tour its central gardens, visit a well-known stone lion statue and walk through the town center.

    Following your stop in Ifrane, continue to Azrou a Berber village built at an altitude of 1250 metres above sea level on the edge of a magnificent cedar forest. Just outside Azrou, you’ll reach the Cedar Forest, one of Morocco’s biggest. On this one, you’ll enjoy a quiet stroll under ancient towering cedar trees and have the opportunity to see (and potentially connect with) Barbary apes monkeys that are native to North Africa. Alternatively, you can partake in a picnic or lunch at one of the local restaurants with nature’s aura enveloping your gathering.

    In the afternoon you will be driven back to Fes, with optional photo stops on route. You will return to your hotel or riad in the early evening feeling revitalized and with beautiful memories of Morocco’s natural beauty.

He ensured the pace was perfect, stopped for photos, and made the journey enjoyable and stress-free. This trip was memorable thanks to Hafid’s expertise and friendly guidance.

Right from the beginning, Ismail’s professionalism, friendliness, and knowledge made the experience smooth and enjoyable. We first visited Ifrane, exploring its picturesque streets and beautiful gardens, then continued to the Cedar Forest to see stunning trees and the famous Barbary monkeys. Throughout the day, Ismail shared engaging stories about the region’s history, culture, and wildlife. He made sure we had plenty of time for photos, snacks, and relaxation. Thanks to Ismail, the day was seamless, educational, and full of unforgettable memories in nature.
