My husband and I visited the Atlas Mountains in March and wanted to experience this incredible landscape and its people. So we booked a three day trek with Said, and had the best three days of our ten day trip. Said's knowledge of the Mountains...MoreThank you for your nice review.

Berber Travel Adventures

Visitors experience firsthand the beauty and hospitality of Moroccan Berber culture by meeting and interacting with those living in the many small mountainous villages surrounding Amizmiz, a town about an hour from Marrakech. Activities include visiting Berber villages and homes, helping prepare traditional Berber meals, and learning about the daily life of Morocco's native people. This cultural attraction gives visitors a real-life encounter with the rural Berber life of the High Atlas Mountains.

After a couple of days in Marrcech we (middle age couple) decided mid-afternoon that we could take a day out of our short break to do something different. After a little internet research we decided to contact BTA to see if they could arrange something for us at short notice the next day. We spoke to the (very helpful) Jamal who was unfortunately busy but his colleague Noureddine (Nori) would be able to take us into the Atlas Mountains foothills on the 'heavy' walking tour, including morning tea and lunch in a Berber village. A taxi picked us up at 7:30 from our Riad and drove us into a town near the Mountains. This is where we met Jamal (a lovely guy) and Nori (a gentle giant). We walked into the Mountains along trails that only had locals, goats and mules for company. It was fantastic. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. We finished walking about 4pm, having started about 9am. Wear good shoes, it is a real trail. We met lovely people and came back educated and with a sense of authenticity that is normally so hard to find. Lastly, if Nori is your guide you will not be disappointed.

I did the trek from Imlil to mount Toubkal and back in two days. It was a fantastic experience including spectacular views. It was - however - quite tough and I would recommend staying the night before in Imlil to adjust to altitude.
