Ian Green, Greentours Oct 05: "Staying at Taroudant with our groups each year has been a wonderful experience. The hospitality and the food is first class and Said is a great companion in the field. Being close to the Atlas and right in the bird-rich Souss Valley makes it a superb base for a wildlife tour and Said's local knowledge has helped us no end. And you can pop down to the souk at the end of a long day enjoying the birds, flowers and butterflies before Fatima's superb tagines... what could be better?"
Fascinating Range of Places to Visit
It was the striking contrasts between the geology, landscape, economic and cultural geography within the area that first attracted the director
of the company to visit this part of Morocco. Within 80 kms of our own guest house
all the Geological Eras are represented - ranging from volcanic to fossil-rich
sediments to metamorphic rocks to fossil sand dunes and all so beautifully
exposed! The fossils and minerals offered for sale are of excellent
quality.
Resources
We have large quantities of materials as well as a range of books, displays, including specimens, and maps to support your interest in geology, geography and wildlife. We have a well-equipped meeting room with a range of resources available for use by visiting groups.
A school group leader: "Sensational week in Morocco, thank you! Did more, livelier kids, and the school link was unbelievable. We felt like movie stars! May we book for next year, please? As for Latifa and Said, words are not enough. They are worth their weight in gold." D Proudlove, Feb 2002
