Had an absolutely enjoyable experience, our guide was helping us along the way the whole time. Was an absolutely enjoyable 3 day trip well worth the price. Toubkal is a very beautiful mountain with incredible views, with not to many people on the mountain. Best for those with some experience but beginners can attempt
Absolutely incredible experience climbing Mount Toubkal this weekend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our guide Mohamed Tsiou was genuinely 5-star from start to finish. Professional, knowledgeable, encouraging and always one step ahead of what we needed. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, safe and enjoying every moment. He didn’t just guide us up the mountain — he made the whole experience that little bit more special, with his local knowledge, great attitude and genuine care throughout. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough. If you’re planning to climb Toubkal, you’ll be in very safe and capable hands. 🙌⛰️🇲🇦
Hiking up Jebel Toubkal was an absolute highlight of my time in Morocco, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible guide, Mohamed Tsiou. Over the three days, Mohamed was knowledgeable, patient, and exceptionally encouraging. He paced the hike perfectly, kept safety a top priority during the summit push, and shared so much insight about the Atlas Mountains and local Berber culture.
Beautiful and challenging. Phenomenal experience with great guide and food. Best for everyone who likes mountains and outdoor experiences. Our guide Mohamed Tsiou was supportive all the way - up and down. Not to mention the great down to earth food prepared by our mule-man Ibrahim.
Just finished this 3 day Mt Toubkal experience with Mohamed Tsiou and it was absolutely AMAZING!!! 😍 We were so well looked after from start to finish, everything worked seamlessly: transport from airport to Imlil, the stay at Imlil Mountain Lodge, amazing food at the lodge and at basecamp, the trek up to base camp and up to the summit, Mohamed’s experience on the mountain, …
Was an amazing experience and our guide Mohammed was very accommodating. He managed to give us some history if the mountain/villages while also ensuring the climb was perfect!
Fantastic experience our guide Mohammed was brilliant nice steady pace ensured we all got to the top. Food was good, transportation was flawless a really top notch all round experience. Don’t underestimate the effects altitude on appetite, energy levels and sleep
Our Toubkal guide Mohamed was excellent. Kept us at a steady but manageable pace, with plenty of interesting information along the way. The food prepared by our cook (also Mohamed) was absolutely delicious. All in all, a fabulous trip.
The best trekking experience in the last 20 years thanks to mountain guide Mohamed Tsiou from Climg Mount Toubkal 🧗🏿♂️ If it's hot in Europe, find a 4,000m peak like us (or two like us) and climb it from the bottom to the top and cool off there at the top. And maybe you'll find an engine from a crashed plane and also find out what your own limits are and what's inside you and your friends.

We recently climbed Mount Toubkal as part of a fundraising challenge for Newcastle United Foundation, and we could not have asked for a better guide than Mohamed and his team. From start to finish, Mohamed was exceptional. His knowledge of the mountains, the local Berber culture and the route itself was outstanding, but what really set him apart was his ability to motivate and support every member of the group, regardless of ability. Climbing North Africa's highest peak can be a challenge, particularly at altitude, and Mohamed's calm, professional and encouraging approach ensured that everyone felt safe, confident and capable throughout the trek. Nothing was ever too much trouble. He paced the group perfectly, constantly checked on everyone's wellbeing, and shared insights about the Atlas Mountains and local life along the way. His experience and leadership gave us complete confidence at all times. The trek was an unforgettable experience and a huge success, raising funds for Newcastle United Foundation's disability programmes. Much of that success was down to Mohamed and his team. If you are considering climbing Toubkal, I cannot recommend Mohamed highly enough. A true professional, a fantastic guide and an all-round great person. Thank you, Mohamed, for helping create memories that will last a lifetime.
