Testimonials
Barbary macaque Steve & Samantha from Brighton
October 07 on tour in Morocco we wanted to photograph Barbary Apes so I phoned M-U in Azrou, and they made hotel reservation for the following night, arranged parking and a fabulous vegetarian meal specially Prepared by the Cedras restaurant . The next morning they showed us the way to a colony of Barber Apes. Nice one M-U! See you again in December.
Donkey Trek Stephen & Isabel from OZ. We were in Azrou unwinding after 6 hectic days in Fez in 2005. M-U offered us to be their first guests/guinea-pigs in return for feed back. On our 3 day Donkey trek we felt a real welcoming hospitality from our host's and loved the pure tranquillity of the mountains. Here's our tip for travelling couples. Buy & wear cheap wedding rings to avoid any culturally complicated questions.
 Trekking Danny & Hanja from UK & France: We joined M-U on a mountain mapping reckie in May 04. I picked up a few new tunes and riffs from a shepherd who joined us for dinner. Great night under the stars! Next morning we were invited to watch the community sheep shearing, liked it so much I bought a Donkey and headed south Donkey trekking for 2 months.
