マラケシュからの3日間のベルベル村ハイキング

This was very much the trek we were looking for. Mustapha organized a four day trek for our family, and it was just about perfect. We are a family of five, including three kids ages 9-13, and were looking for some good distances and to get a taste of Berber culture. We had a guide, a cook and an additional mule handler. There was enough room with the mules to carry the bags we needed for the trek, and the remainder Mustapha was able to store at his guesthouse in Imlil. Transfer to and from Marrakech was also included, and our guide met us at our accommodations there to facilitate the pickup. From a logistical standpoint, everything about the trip was very easy for us. We had two guides during the trip. Our guide for the first half spoke great English and was really knowledgeable about a wide range of topics, and even organized us visiting a Berber family for tea in their garden. Our guide for the second half spoke a bit less English, but had a lot of local knowledge and was great with our kids. Both the cook and muleteer also spoke a small bit of English, and were very friendly. The food was excellent. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all fully cooked hot meals and were traditional Moroccan dishes of the same quality you’d find at any restaurant in Marrakech. There was always enough food. You’ll want to organize your own water and other drinks (aside from the near-endless mint tea!), but there are shops in every village where we bought additional bottles each morning, as well as kiosks in a couple of the mountain passes. Accommodations were totally adequate. The guesthouses had a bit of a range in their simplicity, but we were always comfortable and warm (the guesthouse at Tizi N’Taschendirt, at the highest altitude, was quite cold, but excellent blankets were provided and we slept warmly. Be sure to bring warm clothes for evening time). Not all of the guesthouses had hot water while we were there, and you should plan on bringing your own toilet paper and towels. Though basic, we were never uncomfortable, and every place was at least several steps up from camping. The hotel in Imlil included at the end of our last day, dar Assarou, was excellent, and I’d recommend staying in it even if you weren’t trekking. A very pleasant way to celebrate the end of the trek. I should note if you are considering bringing children on this trek that this is some moderately strenuous walking. The first two days were 10+ kilometers, and you are at altitude (2500m). Our kids did mostly fine, but they are experienced at this sort of thing- even our 9-year-old has half a dozen 15km hikes under his belt. If your kids don’t have experience with this level of strenuous activity, this might not be the place to start, though I’m sure Mustapha could also arrange something different (the itinerary he proposed when we were first organizing this included routes and altitudes so we had a clear idea what we were getting into). The muleteer was clear that the boys could always ride on the mules if they needed to get a break, so this might help bridge the gap for your little one. Mustapha was always in excellent communication with us as we made our plans and as the time for the trip approached- including our dietary accommodations, organizing other activities, etc. He was also able to accommodate some last-minute changes we needed to make to part of our itinerary. All-in-all, this was an excellent trip, and a great value. The scenery is stunning, absolutely stunning, the people in the villages we passed were welcoming. This trek was part of a larger trip, and it was really nice to be able to pass off planning, logistics and meals to someone else for a few days- everything went smoothly, and we were able to truly mentally relax. I’ll recommend this trip to any of my friends going to Morocco- it’s an essential stop, and Mustapha will take great care of you.

Very nice guides and a magnificent nature. Have been on this trip three times and i am going again next year.

The best 3-days of our lives and we can't wait to visit it again once everything is back to normal. My wife and I spent an amazing time in Morocco and everything is just beyond our expectation. The tour guide provided was very friendly and accommodating. We learned the history and appreciated the beauty of the views all at the same time. And talk about the view - the view was amazing! It is not how I imagined it would be and I am so delighted. The guesthouses that we stayed in during our hike are also very nice. Really well spent and worth every penny spent. Highly recommended! Hope to be back soon with our kids, and will try to check out the waterfalls in their offer tours. Can't wait!

My mother and me spend Christmas hiking thought the valleys and mountain of the atlas. Everything was so perfect. The amazing views, the yummy meals that were waiting at lunch at the peak of the mountain. As well as the guest houses at night, which were comfortable. The only sad thing was that the time passed so quickly I would advice to take even longer trips than 3 days, because it's simply amazing and breath taking.

We were å group of 17 people, children and adults. Toubkal trekking arranged the whole trip for us. We where in marrakech with sightseeing, 3 nights in the beautiful atlas mountains and in essouira. We stayed at beautiful riads. The guides were great. We did hiking and mountain biking. Thank you so much for a fantastic trip. No doubt we will be back again, maybe to try out the dessert trip. 😊

I had the pleasure of a multi day hiking trip in November last year and would highly recommend. The scenery through was epic as we hiked through remote villages and mountain passes. The food at our breakfast, lunch and dinner was always plentiful and delicious. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly and even joined in on our card games in the evening 😃! The real highlight for me was seeing the Milky Way over the Atlas Mountains. There is almost no light pollution so the stars are clear and amazing. If you want to get out into nature and experience spectacular landscapes and a different culture then this trip is for you.

We went in May 2018. This trip was full of incredible sights. We started off with easy transportation from Marrakech before we set off with our pack donkey, English speaking guide, and extra helper. We set off into the mountains and almost immediately were struck with the beauty of the landscape. Before long, we stopped for lunch, and what a lunch it was! We were so impressed with the food on this trip - we are used to camping food and this was always fresh and delicious. We were the only hikers the entire 4 days, which really made it extra special. (Except for the occasional goat herder.) The villages were tucked into the mountainsides and it felt like going back in time. We slept in home stays at each village, which was usually rustic but we didn’t mind. When we weren’t hiking, we just walked around the villages or read our books. We could not have done this trip without our guides. It was an unforgettable experience.

This was a wonderful experience from beginning to end, and I would highly recommend it. We are avid hikers and hiking in the Atlas Mountains was very unique and wonderful. Passing through the villages where life remains much as it has for hundreds of years was such a special experience, as was hearing the calls to prayer from the different village minarets all throughout the region. It was truly unlike anything we had ever experienced. Our guide was so kind and knowledgeable and made our day very special. There was a man with a packed donkey that was going our same way and it turns out he was our lunch chef. He made us the most delicious meal which we ate in the shade of a very shallow cave and when we were done our guide invited a goat herder to come eat. I thought that was so great. We were told that this goat herder lives in the same way his ancestors have for hundreds of years and he is totally uncorrupted by technology of any kind. After our wonderful day hiking, we went back to the village of Imlil where we stayed in a Berber home for the night. We had the most spectacular view of the mountains and valley from the balcony and enjoyed a delicious dinner. There are no roads and hence no automobiles in these villages and it was quite amusing in the morning when our two large suitcases were loaded onto a donkey and we walked back to an area where cars can access. This is a trip that I highly recommend, and it is one of our favorite memories of our time in Morocco.

Very professional, the trek was in a good mood. Without hesitation, I recommend this stay.

in this crazy times we live on lesson we must take is what is really important for us, in those days at home i keep remember how alive happy i was in this mountains, how much we enjoy and feel the nature, the warm of the people, how life should be As we are back in a situation to travel, travel to mountains, travel where the air is pure, the water is fresh, where people are nice, and truly care about you i hope i can return soon!!! thank for the memories and care
