Nice day trip

Well organised tour. Before reaching the departure point for the mountain hiking, stop for a brief camel ride and the (unavoidable) visit of an Argan oil cooperative. Hiking through some small villages before reaching the (overcrowded) waterfalls. Spectacular views. Enjoyed an original berber lunch prepared by the guide‘s family.

Very exotic, we are immersed in local life, thanks to Jawad.

Exceptional day with Jawad as guide! Comedy ride, visit to an argan cooperative, huge and incredible Berber market, homestay lunch and hike to the Imlil waterfall. Jawad allowed us to have an extraordinary experience!

Good landscapes and culture

I did this excursion accompanied by friends looking for good views and an entertaining hike, and it met my expectations. My guide was Hassan, he explained everything very well and was very attentive to the group. We also made some stops to understand about culture of the peoples and Morocco.

Great experience 10/10

Superb excursion in Moroccan nature to discover Berber customs. We were guided beautifully by Hassan who was the main actor of the beautiful day we spent. Special mention to Abu our bus driver for his perfect driving which allowed us to rest with confidence between each stopover.
