Great trip to Imlil off the beaten path. Was wonderful to walk in the cool, stark Atlas mountains, past waterfalls and streams, a big contrast to hot bustling Marrakech. The guide spoke limited English but was super kind and helpful and good to be with. The Berber Tagine lunch in the village was superb. Along the path we stopped at a shop with stunning rugs. High recommended.
Hi from Marrakech dream tours Thanks lot for your nice review Best from Marrakech dream tours
You get picked up in a nice taxi with ample space for a small group. We were then dropped off in the town where we were joined by a guide who took us to two small water falls and then a bit of a long walk to the Berber village where we had a lovely, fresh and hot meal. Overall if you are looking for a simple trek, a day away from the hustle and bustle of the medina and enjoy some time in nature then this is a great option. Overall a nice experience !

I liked the experience and the guide was amazing speaking 5 languages!! The stops are good but its not a hiking experience at all. The prices for the food are higher than expected (they say its 70dirham but the restaurant will charge you 130 plus expected tips!). Overall it was good.

Thanks lot for your nice review it’s Excellent thanks again Every tour We offer nice service and Excellent tours for our guests to visit atlas mountain
An enjoyable day, friendly pick up driver. A stop off at the women’s cooperative on the way & then onto the mountain hike. Two options, a shorter hike or a more challenging 3 hour hike. We did the challenging option which included several sections of steep trail walking. A very helpful, knowledgable and friendly guide equipped with water and snacks. After the hike a traditional Moroccan lunch shared with the group. Overall a good experience.
Hi from Marrakech dream tours Thanks lot for your nice review it’s Excellent and you are very welcome again to Morocco Best from Hassan official tour guide
We really enjoyed your fantastic day trip to the Atlas Mountains. With a small multinational group of 5 we were very well looked after by our multilingual driver, guide and informative, considerate trek leader up the path to where a beautiful, delicious tagine prepared fresh and served on a terrace with awesome views of the mountains, waterfalls and donkeys carrying tents higher up for climbers. So many amazing photo opportunities. Probably the best day excursion we have ever had - you have to see the mountains. And the bonus visit to the women’s Argon Oil collective was a friendly and enjoyable- no hard selling. Amazing value for money. The climb and descent were of a moderate challenge but flatter alternative was offered. We would do it again in a flash. Just don’t know how they can do it for the price.Needless to say thoroughly recommended. Jon and Tania England.
