Yann
IRF TL 4/5 & Rafting guide (owner)
Born in Africa with French, Indonesian and Dutch blood. He studied in the Netherlands. Yann began his journey in the northern part of Japan. After years of travelling and working abroad, it was time to share his passion in Europe. We take you through the Atlas mountains in a unique way. We do not leave any trace behind in order to respect the local population and nature. Our goal is to feel and taste the culture in a natural, active way of travelling.

You know when he's around. Its like you are walking through a fancy bar or the Nitro circus. He loves sharing a few tricks picked up on his travels, from a special italian meal to some gentlemanly manners.

James Will make sure that you are enjoying your stay in Morocco with a good taste of flavour to complete your holiday.

"Berber Whiskey"
"Waking up in a beautiful Bedouin tent with the smell of Berber Whiskey lingering in the air and a day filled with adventure ahead of you. And then, when you’ve climbed into the raft, adrenaline rushes through your body while you conquer rapids and traverse humbling canyons. Berber Rafting Adventures will introduce you to places you’ll never forget: from hidden patios in the centre of Marrakesh to spectacular views in the High Altas Mountains. Under the guidance of experienced mountaineers and raftguides (Yann!) you will discover the hospitable Berber culture and cherish – until months after – the wonderful people , the food and of course the amazing trip!" By: Anne Annie " The rafting trip is just as described on their website, only better. the guides really do put your enjoyment first, but take no risks with your safety on the river whatsoever ".
By trip advisor "Rafting with Yann was great fun, we had a fantastic adventure, hope to do it again!" By Sam Brothill "Amazing rafting adventures with Yann Coppen and his company Berber Rafting Morocco, Africa. Looking for a rafting adventure with a difference; not the main stream Zambezi river, etc., then definitely you won't be disappointed."
By Ross Carty "Had an amazing rafting trip with Yann in Morocco - so much fun! Would definitely recommend Berber rafting :-)"

"We spent that night camping on a few large polished rocks next to an impassable waterfall. We made a huge campfire, ate, and drank what was left of the duty free Johnny Walker before going to sleep under more stars than I had seen in my life. I’d never done that, and it was absolutely magical..." By Gijs Peetsold
