Try it! - Great experience with the Hassan guide and all the remaining company of men and mules. Three days technically affordable and very well organized in charming places. We recommend! P.s. don't worry if they contact you at the last minute, in the morning, same to agree the meeting point... But be ready at the indicated time. :)

Once we got over an... - Once we got over an initial hiccup with the pick-up in Marrakech - apparently the bus driver was told to look out for 3 people while we were only 2 - everything went very well. The trek itself was excellent and we, my brother and I, were very well fed and accommodated over the 3 days and 2 nights and dropped back to Marrakech in the late afternoon of the third day as planned. We would have no hesitation in repeating the experience.

WORTH DOING! Excellent! - Our Atlas Hiking tour with Samir & Mohammed exceeded all expectations. They were both fantastic, very friendly and happy to answer questions about the local area, while showing professionalism and great mountain knowledge. We felt safe every step of the way (travelled in a Group of ~10 people). Food and accommodation were typical of the area, which made for an authentic experience. Pack a wind breaker and a fleece, it gets cold up there even in the sun!

Amazing experience ! - We had an incredible experience exploring the Berber villages in the heart of Morocco. Walking through these beautiful landscapes and discovering local traditions was unforgettable. A special thanks to our guide, Samir, who was amazing—knowledgeable, friendly, and speaks in English and French. The food was another highlight: fresh, local, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this authentic and enriching experience! Martin Taffonneau

Excellent authentic experience - We had a great time with Kamal (guide) and Halit (chef). The hiking was so beautiful and Kamal made the experience unforgettable. The hiking felt very remote and not touristy in the slightest, which is what we wanted. Some top tips: - read the reviews on here with a grain of salt, I think the routes and accommodations vary across tours - pack a variety of things.. we have 20+ degrees on our first day and then a snow blizzard on our second - bring cereal bars or some snacks - bring a towel, toothpaste, shower gel, flip flops and pillow / sleeping bag liner (the accommodation was fine, but the bedding is fleece so not sure how/if this is washed) - it was freezing at night so bring hat gloves etc - walking shoes would be helpful but one of us did it in trainers and was fine (although regretted not having hiking boots when it snowed)

Great tour with great guide! - We did a three-day hike in the Atlas Mountains with Houssine, and it was an amazing experience. He was a great guide, nice, looking out for us and super knowledgeable about the history and Berber culture, which made the trip even more interesting. The hike itself was beautiful, with stunning landscapes and well-organized logistics. We got a real taste of Berber life. The food was delicious and all locally sourced. We met a lot of locals who were really nice! A small tip for future travelers: bring your own towel and soap. A small minus: The driver bringing us back to the hotel was a bit rude. He apparently had a reservation later and was obviously not happy to bring us to the drop off point. Overall, a fantastic adventure—highly recommended!
