Awesome Guided Trek! - We had an amazing experience with our hiking guide Mustapha and mule guide Brahim. They were both very nice, professional and knowledgeable of the area. The hike itself was challenging but doable. Be prepared for steep and rocky terrain. Bring plenty of water and some local currency if you wish to buy more in the village during your overnight. All meals were provided and the food was excellent. In the winter be prepared for colder weather and bring extra clothes. We had lots of great views of valleys and surrounding mountains. Definitely glad we got out of the city for a couple of days!

Amazing Trek! - I went on many trekking tours in Atlas mountains with these guys and it always has been an amazing experience. They took care of everything to the smallest details. Guides are knowledgable, friendly and very helpful. They also never mind going out of their way to make the experience outstanding. Highly recommended for Atlas treks and any tours in Morocco.
