I'll try to keep this as concise as I can, but there are a lot of incredible things I want to comment on from this trip. From start to finish it was an amazing experience!

The preparation in advance of this holiday was really good. I had a few questions which were answered very quickly, and setting up a WhatsApp group gave us all a chance to see who we were going to spend the week with. It also became a great tool for sharing photos - and there were a lot of them!

We stayed in Riad Makech the first night which was very comfortable and very close to a lot of great markets and cafes. This first day wasn't part of the tour but I would recommend flying in early so that you can have a few hours stretching your legs and exploring before the drive to the gorge. A few of us arrived at around the same time that morning as well, so it gave us a chance to get to know each other before meeting the rest of the group.

There were a few car journeys across the tour and all were managed really efficiently and the journeys were very comfortable. So much so that a lot of used this as a chance to get in a quick snooze! If you're able to stay awake the scenery is really spectacular and there were a few opportunities to get out and grab some photos.

When we arrived at the guesthouse near the gorge, Natalie and Dan met us and they couldn't have been more welcoming. The guesthouse felt like home very quickly and we were looked after so well by the whole team. The rooms are all en suite and most have really spectacular views. The food was incredibly tasty and filling, and definitely kept us all fully energised throughout the week. I want every meal to finish with some melon and a glass of mint tea now!

I had very minimal bouldering experience before this holiday so was a bit nervous about climbing, but Dan and Natalie were incredibly encouraging and made us all feel very safe and supported throughout all the climbing days. When Dan first set up the routes it looked quite daunting but this just added to the feeling of achievement once I made it to the top. There was a great feeling of camaraderie in our group as well, so it never felt like you were tackling the wall on your own. The gorge itself is such a dramatic landscape, that even when you're not climbing it's a wonderful environment to be in. Just make sure to bring lots of suncream!

Natalie had a wonderful series of yoga classes throughout the tour, and they complemented the muscle aches from climbing really well. Most classes were held on the top of the guesthouse with a near panoramic view of the gorge, so most of the breathing meditations were done with my eyes wide open! The standout classes for me were held in the desert though. Breathtaking is not an ideal word to use for a yoga class but the landscape was just that. Natalie had such a fun class set up for the first evening and the peace of starting the following day with the sunrise was truly special.

For me, the desert trip was the highlight of the holiday. The yoga classes I've already mentioned, but the food, the drumming and singing around the campfire, the view of the stars, driving over the dunes and sandboarding down them, all combined to make a really special experience. We had a full moon that night so didn't quite get the starlit sky that I was hoping for, but seeing the desert bathed in the light of a full moon was absolutely beautiful.

It might be that we got lucky, or it could be that this type of tour attracts a certain type of person. I've been on a few group tours like this by other companies, but this particular group of people were the most fun and interesting group I've every holidayed with. The majority were solo travellers like me, and we all got on so well from day one. There was so much laughter and great conversation and generosity and support from everyone; this certainly helped to make the holiday as fun as it was. Most nights at the guesthouse were spent on the roof playing silly games and sharing drinks and reminiscing on the amazing memories of the day. Dan and Natalie joined us on the last night as well, which gave us an opportunity to really thank them for the week they put together for us. It's very clear that they put a lot of effort into making this tour enjoyable for all their guests and really value our feedback to continue making it better.....although there really isn't much room for improvement in my opinion!

I finished this week feeling refreshed, buoyant and so much more confident than when I started. I really hope to keep in touch with the rest of the group and would book another holiday without any hesitation. Thank you both Natalie and Dan for an unforgettable experience.

Trip of a lifetime. People, country, food and activities all amazing. Yoga and rock climbing with Dan and Natalie was the best way to experience such an amazing place. A trip I won't be forgetting, don't hesitate to book this trip, it will push you out of your comfort zone in the best way.

Natalie and Dan have put together a fantastic trip and are wonderful hosts. The amount of experiences they've managed to fit into the itinerary is incredible. The gorge is absolutely stunning and getting to do sunrise yoga in the Sahara is such an amazing experience. 100% would recommend the trip.

This was an unbelievable trip. Dan and Natalie were amazing hosts - nothing was too much trouble and they were really helpful and keen to make sure everyone was happy to go at their own pace and enjoying themselves. Natalie leads the yoga classes, I had an injury at the time so she was really supportive and made sure to include alternative positions for me so I could still fully participate which I really appreciated. Highlights definitely included drumming around the campfire with locals in the Sahara under shooting stars and climbing outside for the first time ever! There really is something for everyone and along with having an awesome group to share the experience with this trip was truly unforgettable. Wish I could do it all over again! Thanks for an incredible holiday :)

The trip perfectly reflects the name of the website, it was a "much better adventure". It has everything: sport, adrenaline, culture, beautiful landscapes and architecture, great food. You do need to have the "adventure mentality": don't expect to stay in 5 star resorts (though the night in desert glamping was indeed quite luxurious), but all the accomodations were reasonable and supplied the essentials, and food was good and plentiful. The trip is packed with experiences and great value for money. Dan & Nat are amazing guides. Definitely recommended.

An incredible trip! Enjoyed every moment of it and was so sad to leave at the end. Laughed loads, ate great food and felt like I was away for weeks. We saw so much in the 6 days. I felt at home from the moment I arrived – Natalie and Dan are excellent hosts. I was a complete beginner when I went on this trip and it’s definitely made me want to come back and do more climbing!

This trip was an amazing experience. Dan and Natalie, the local hosts, have pulled together an excellent itinerary at great value. They're top hosts, being both welcoming, personal, and professional; but also got to know everyone well during the trip and pushed them to their limits.

I can't say enough good things about this trip. Natalie and Dan were excellent and are the nicest people. Fun, friendly, patient, and more. Morocco is friendly, beautiful, and mad - the infrastructure/accommodation is great (as long as you understand you're in North Africa not Norway). The biggest variable on trips is often the group dynamic but (at least partly thanks to Dan and Natalie) we got on the absolute best. Driving to the airport after a final rooftop drink in Marrakech was so bittersweet! My only advice would be to invest in lots of plasters and climbing tape to save your hands and ensure you can make the most of all the climbing. Other than that, enjoy!

I really can't recommend this trip enough! It was one of the best experiences I've had travelling.

Dan and Natalie are amazing people and the perfect hosts. Before the trip they had a WhatsApp group made so we could make introductions and ask any questions. They were really communicative and made everyone feel welcome even before we had set foot in Morocco.

When we arrived at the Gorge you could immediately tell this was more than just a business venture for them. They are a part of the community and the relationships they had with the locals and the love for the place was really amazing to see.

The activities were all really well run and we were given complete freedom to do things at our own pace. Both the yoga and the climbing were well taught and they made sure that all the beginners felt comfortable while still allowing those with more experience to test themselves.

To top everything off I got to experience all this with the best possible group of people. This has been my first trip away since lockdown and it was better than I could've dreamed.

Do yourself a favour and get it booked!

What an incredible trip. Dan, Natalie & all the local hosts were so helpful, friendly and knowledgable. Just the right amount of activity & rest. So many once-in-a-lifetime experiences and all in the company of a wonderful group of people! I cannot express what a great trip this was, thank you to everyone!
