Embark on a memorable 30-minute camel ride along the riverbed of Oued Ghighaya. A new world awaits you in the Berber villages of the High Atlas. The contrast between Europe and Marrakesh is striking, and even more so between bustling Marrakesh and the tranquil Berber villages nestled high in the Atlas Mountains.

Prepare to be captivated by the stunning landscapes and the warm hospitality of the Berber people. Life in the mountains is simple, yet the friendliness of the locals will make you feel like you need nothing more. Our local Berber guide will lead you along the most scenic walking path to a charming waterfall.

Lunch will be enjoyed in a traditional Berber family home, offering an authentic taste of local culture. On your return journey to Marrakesh, complete your special day excursion with another 30-minute camel ride – an experience not to be missed. You'll be treated to breathtaking views over the Berber valleys at the highest point of the walk. and more...

Special excursion, the group is usually small scale. There were two of us. Superb and welcoming and very tasteful in every way! Very friendly local guide. At his house therefore delicious food. I was a bit of a walker but they're doing their best for that too. Nothing is too crazy.

yesterday we had a great excursion with Radouane to the Atlas Mountains. It was a very varied day with a visit to the weekly market, a nice walk and lunch with a Berber family! Along the way beautiful stops with fantastic views and a camel ride for those who want. Radouane was a very caring guide and he shared many personal things about growing up in the mountains. Highly recommended!
Super!

We had the opportunity to put together this individual trip with highlights ourselves. It was great. The visit to Radouane's family home was also warm. The meeting with the brothers and the parents was also very special. We really appreciate it. The snow was unexpected but magnificent, delicious. Thank you also for the equipment provided not requested but afterwards much appreciated. Next time in Marrakech we will definitely join the other tours.

We had a nice and varied private tour. To the market, hiking, village viewing, good food and a camel ride in a beautiful valley. It's really a hike so bring good shoes. The guide always asks if you want a short or longer route so it is doable for everyone. Radouane is a very sympathetic guide who already speaks English but always wants to learn new words. It is very nice to be out of town and spend a day in the beautiful mountains!
Just Amazing, the guide (Radoune) was so dedicated to his Job

The guide (Radouane) text us a day before the trip, and asked us if we need something special for the day. We already appreciate his message. The day of the trip they pick us up on the right time and place. The taxi driver (Saïd) was a very friendly man. We really loved this trip and the personal guide (Radouane) he was so nice and dediqated to his Job. He was open en he has a lot experience about the atlas mountain and the rest of the trip. If you wanne do a road trip we definitely recommend Radouane. Its was a day we will never forget.
