Full description

Set out from Marrakesh to experience life in the Atlas Mountains on this tour. The Berbers have called the region home for centuries. Discover their traditions and enjoy a meal. From the mountains, descend to the desert to ride a camel over the dunes. The first stop on the tour is the city of Tahanaoute. Visit a special cooperative where Berber women produce argan oil. You’ll get to try it in a traditional breakfast along with olive oil, organic honey, and fresh bread. After your meal, learn about the Berbers’ daily life. Cross through several Berber villages before reaching Imlil, the town offers sweeping views of Toubkal and the other mountains. Begin your descent and pass through the Berber village of Asni. It’s well-known for the market it hosts on Saturdays. Spend some time in the nearby valley. The waterfalls and the surrounding mountains are great for taking pictures.

After having good time with the Berbers, you will be back to Marrakech.

What a fabulous day! A very personal service was provided by Mouhamed who picked us up from the nearest accessible place to our Riad and then took us on a journey that involved stops for a camel ride, the argon oil place and then IMLIL where Hassan took over and helped and encouraged us to get to the cascade and then higher until we were sat drinking mint tea at 2,000m. The views were stupendous and the attention just right for giving us a memorable day

Mohamed, our guide for the whole tour, was very punctual, discreet and kind. He accompanied us throughout the journey, also respecting some of our needs. We visited the waterfalls and the center of Imlil, on the Atlas mountain range, with beautiful and impressive views. We had tea on a terrace of a house with a beautiful view and a beautiful warm sun, to then have lunch on a private terrace, where we were offered a very genuine lunch. Mohamed told us a lot about the habits and customs of the place. He accompanied us to the hotel in the evening, with one less piece of heart .... Highly recommended excursion!
