Taroudant is a southwestern city in Morocco located in the Souss valley. 80 km from Agadir, is a picturesque town, protected by beautiful ramparts of ocher color that almost alone worth the trip. This former capital of the Sub also has a small medina and souks modest but interesting. Nicknamed the Little Marrakech certainly for its great walls and bubbling mopeds, street vendors, pedestrians, Taroudant has nothing to envy to other cities as it has for it a long and tumultuous history and offers beautiful remains to be discovered. Once the car is parked, is that we must walk the survey, six kilometers from the majestic ramparts we face, pink sand, each of its nine arched doorways have a name, it's prettier than numbers. The craft bazaar located in the alleys of the city is renowned for its fine jewelry Berber in silver, it is a tradition here. Carpet Taroudant are well known, people come from far to haggle Berber carpets of the region. Surrounded by mountains, the High Atlas to the north and east and the Anti-Atlas south, Taroudant is at the heart of a fertile valley. 30 km southeast perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking the village of Tiout palm grove reminiscent of Marrakech. The ruins of an ancient kasbah transformed into a tourist restaurant, dominate the site. From the top of the peak, breathtaking views to offer on the High Atlas and the Souss Valley. For the record, Fernandel turned Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves in this palm grove in 1954. The pretty Berber town offers much to see and it is on the road to Agadir, these attics villages, which date from the 16th century and are a must-see before they completely disappeared.

Rachid of Agadir Journey is an excellent guide and driver. Helpful and knowledgeable on all aspects of his country of which he is an excellent unofficial ambassador. Our group of 12 people, predominantly French-speakers but with some English speakers too, gelled well. We learnt a lot about Agadir as well as our 2 destinations, Taroudant and the Tiout Oasis, where we also benefited from local guides. The market inside the old city walls of Taroudant is more intimate and less frenetic than its counterparts in Marrakesh and Agadir. The walk through the Tiout Oasis was a showcase for some wonderful agricultural achievements as well as delightful scenery. In summary, a day well spent in good hands and with nice fellow travellers.

This was one of the best guided tours I’ve ever experienced! The journey began with a hotel pick-up by our skilled driver, Abdul, who quickly became our small group's knowledgeable guide. The first stop was nothing short of spectacular: goats on trees😁! We had plenty of time to take pictures and videos of this unique sight and even chat with the friendly shepherd. Next, we visited a charming fruit farm, primarily growing oranges and lemons. At the entrance, there was a cozy café offering coffee, Moroccan tea, and pastries. After a quick breakfast, we continued to Taroudant, where we spent 1.5–2 hours exploring the city and its vibrant market. Abdul expertly guided us through the bustling souk, stopping at souvenir shops, spice stalls, and traditional clothing stores. One of the highlights was visiting a local argan oil cooperative, where we witnessed traditional oil extraction methods. The products, from cooking oils to cosmetics, were available for purchase on-site. After our Taroudant tour, we headed to the picturesque village of Tiout for a delicious lunch featuring tajine, couscous, bread, and Moroccan mint tea. The views were simply breathtaking, with idyllic scenes straight out of a postcard 😍. Post-lunch, a local guide took us on an informative tour of the oasis, explaining traditional harvesting and water-gathering methods. You can explore the oasis on foot or by donkey; I recommend walking to fully enjoy the experience. (Pro tip: always carry some cash to tip your local guides!) Finally, Abdul met us at the base of the Tiout Kasbah to conclude the trip and drove us back to the hotel. All in all, this was an absolutely fantastic journey into authentic Morocco. Initially, I planned to visit Taroudant on my own, but I’m so glad I booked this guided tour and enjoyed a first-class experience. 10/10 – Highly recommended!!🎉

We had a very enjoyable day and definitely recommend this trip. The walk around the orange grove was lovely and we saw the tree of goats which was fun. The service station was clean and we had a nice coffee and pancake bread which came with honey and was a lovely start to the day The city is very pretty and the guide (Abdul) took time to show us around the Medina walls first and we did not feel rushed. We had a local guide joined us in the Medina who was also very friendly and made sure no one got lost. There were stops for various sales options but not too pushy. The oasis was lovely. Lunch was good although we did not get to sit in the garden area which was a shame but loads of food. Drinks are not included which I never quite understand but is common here. They were 15 MAD each and you pay at the end. We then had a third guide who took us a walk starting off with an optional donkey which was fun and more difficult than it looks! The English was good, better than on some other trips we have done and the oasis was beautiful. Very lush. Overall a great trip and the best one we have done this holiday so far.

Picked up and dropped off at hotel, had an amazing guide who was so knowledgeable of traditional Morocco 🇲🇦 and spoke good English and other languages. First stopwas to see the goats standing in the tree.. absolutely fantastic!! 🤣😂 Second stop at the souk which was very authentic and less busy than Agadir. Cheaper than Agadir souk. Beautiful artisan shops with antiques, carpets, rugs, jewellery etc. Lunch at the oasis was lovely with chicken tagine, bread, then a sweet couscous with sugar and cinnamon.. drinks are paid separately. Donkey riding is 50 dms or £5. The trip also includes a trip to the Argan oil factory and mint tea. Full day tour and definitely 5*.. a fantastic day ❤ great tour company!!

Really great experience and very fun indeed. Nothing to complain and absolutely perfect for a day out with my daughter. The guide is funny and knowledgeable, very thoughtful as well. Locals we met were friendly

This all day excursion is a fascinating visit to a beautiful oasis in Tiout. If you are coming from Agadir save your money for the sook in Taroudannt. More typical and less expensive. Our guide Aziz was his usual informative and helpful self. If you can ask Simo (the boss) for Aziz. Lunch, Tijane and couscous included were very good. This was our 4th tour. You cannot go wrong by choosing this company. Robert M.

We had a fantastic trip to Taroudant and Tiout with the accomplished and warm tour guide, Abdul Latif (sp?). He is a history scholar, and spoke with pride and knowledge about the places we visted, Morrocco, and its historical relationship to the Iberian penninsula, other parts of Europe, and the U.S. We also enjoyed strolling the market area of Taroudant, and a delicious meal in a Berber home in Tiout. The minivan was comfortable and the driver excellent. All around, a wonderful day for our family of four!
