About this activity
Begin with pickup at 9:00am from your hotel in Marrakech by air-conditioned minivan or 4x4 , then travel along the Atlas Mountains, 1-hour trip. Upon arrival at the Rha Gorge, take a camel ride and absorb the sweeping views over the Atlas Mountains. Continue driving to Tachdirt the highest Village in Morocco (2300 meters)
After you arrive in Tachedirt, our starting point, we’ll travel the way the locals do: by foot or, for those who require it, by mule. This provides lots of time for questions and discussion with your guide, who’ll do everything possible to make sure you leave with a good understanding of Berber villages life. Walking also gives you the chance to notice small details—a wildflower, how Berber homes are constructed, certain rock formations—that would otherwise be lost on someone going by car. After passing over few Berber villages and local foot paths and trails, we’ll make our way to a Berber home for tea or lunch.
Depart Imnan valley. Then we drive to Imlil valley. We see across from our way the beautiful villages of Tamatert, Ait Souka and Armed. Finally, we are in Toubkal National park,Then a short walk or a mule ride to beautiful Waterfalls. Admire different landscapes with snow-capped peaks, lush valleys & traditional mud-built Berber villages, the Atlas Mountains Toubkal National park offer a wonderful respite from the madness, heat and noise of Marrakech.
At the end of the day, you’ll be physically tired but—we hope—mentally refreshed by the cultural encounters of the day...and ready for another hectic day back in Marrakech.

Our guide, Issmail, was terrific! Informative, insightful, friendly and a brilliant guide. This is a fantastic tour around the valley and the tea with Issmail's family after was a beautiful finish to a great day.
This tour is very nice. I very much appreciate Adam Bhan who was my local guild. He took care me very best and help me to take a lot of photos. In addition, the food is very delicious.I also hope in the future I will go to desert with this tour agency again.
