Top top top! - Great organization! Our hotel was quite far from Marrakech and the transfer was done without problem from the hotel to the bus.
Superb and long hike as we wanted! Super nice guide with lots of anecdotes that avoids tourist paths for an experience at the top! The picnic was simple and good with a vegetarian option, I highly recommend ☺️

Wonderful hike, wonderful guide, beautiful place - Starting with a smooth pick-up in Marrakech we eventually ended up in Imlil to climb the (relatively modest) Isk peak. Before leaving, our guide Mohmed gave us bottles of water and lunch, which included a boiled egg, bread, a banana, cookies and a can of what I can only call tuna with tomato; which used to be my favourite holiday spread, meaning I enjoyed it very much. Besides the good preparation the whole walk was wonderful. On the way we sometimes stopped in our tracks just to focus on the good conversation we were having. Mohmed, having studied geography and being interested in history, was a great conversation partner with a broad and deep knowledge which he seemed to loved sharing! The views were beautiful and it was fun to learn so much about the efforts Mohmed and his town have been taking to ensure the restoration of nature. I especially appreciated the attention to all the small trash pieces left behind by others, picking them up as we went. With good conversation and some nice whistle harmonies we went up and down the slippery slopes. After getting all the way down we were invited into his home for tea which his wonderful mother made for us. We played a fun game of cards together and went on our way again. Unexpectedly, I found myself walking through the green, lush and blooming valley with beautiful flowers and the sound of the flowing water. This part was almost more beautiful than the full hike we had already completed. Eventually we ended up down at the pick-up location again and had an easy and sleepy journey back to the city.
Extra things: There was always a chance to go to the bathroom when possible, be careful not to slip on in the loos rocks (I did once and hurt my elbow while I was not paying attention - nothing major), quality experience and great time with a lot of positivity and enthusiasm from the wonderful guide!
A great way to rejuvenate and get out of the city for a day!

Great day visiting the Atlas Mountains - Really enjoyed this day trip. Redouan our driver was friendly, helpful and informative re the area we were travelling through. Informative stop at an essential oil cooperative. Our hike guide Lahcen was great, very knowledgeable and helpful and showed us great Moroccan hospitality. It’s quite a steep hike but you don’t have to go to the top unless you want to. Very generous with food throughout the day. Very well looked after.

Trekking from Imlil with an exceptional guide - An affordable hike and climb to Isk. The experience has been excellent in no small measure thanks to Mohamed, who, in addition to guiding us and accompanying us at all times, has allowed us to explore Atlas culture with the wealth of information and details he told us.
Without a doubt, my trusted person for any activity is Mohamed.
Thank you.

Beautiful day hike in the High Atlas - I wanted to do a day hike in the Atlas Mountains during my stay in Marrakech and settled on this hiking tour. The "summiting" part of the description is a bit misleading since the hike took us to a relatively low foothill that, while giving a good view of some of the tallest peaks in the High Atlas Mountains, is probably not what most people expect when that term is used. That minor quibble aside, I was really satisfied with the hike as the view of some of the tallest, snow-capped peaks of the High Atlas Mountains from the top was beautiful and probably one of the best you can get on a daytrip from Marrakech.
If you have time, though, you probably should hike Mt Toubkal instead, which takes two days if you're based in Marrakech. But if you're going for a day hike, you really can't wrong with this one. Special thanks to our guide Elhoussain who, in addition to being very knowledgeable about the area and hiking options in the Atlas Mountains, took us to his home in Imlil for a post-hike tea break with a superb mountain view.

A great authentic mountain hiking experience - We had a lovely day in the mountains. Our driver and guide were great.picked up on time and Mohamed our guide was very nice and extremely helpful,especially with our 7 year old on the hike which we very much appreciated. The scenery was amazing and we got to experience some genuine village hospitality at the end of our hike. Food was provided and we were dropped back to our hotel. It was worth the 70 euros and I would recommend.
