Full description

The adventure begins with pickup from your hotel in Marrakech or the closest accessible point to your accommodation. Head south towards the vast Agafay Desert, admiring the changing landscape along the way as the city gives way to luscious greenery.

Arrive at the large village of Imlil located at the foot of the High Atlas Mountains, then pass through the incredible Kik Plateau.

Next, embark on a 30-minute camel ride and soak up views of the surrounding landscapes. After your ride, enjoy a relaxing tea break and learn about local Berber culture, as well as their traditions, history, and way of life.

Pass through several Berber villages on your way to the Amizmiz Valley, then arrive at Tinirt Village where you can have lunch at a traditional Berber house.

After lunch, continue the tour to the Great Plain of Haouz, passing through the village of Ouled Mataa which was originally inhabited by Bedouin Arab tribes from the desert.

The day ends with a tour of the Agafay Desert, where you can take incredible photos for your holiday album, and marvel at the rugged Moroccan landscape that surrounds you. After an unforgettable day, sit back and relax on the return journey to Marrakesh, arriving back at your accommodation.

    We enjoyed our excursion. It was a great day out with lots of variety. The guide made us feel welcome. Lots of opportunities to take scenic photos and selfies. The van did it’s job, I wouldn’t say it was air conditioned or cleaned between uses. The camel ride was good probably not 30 mins but it was hot and enough time was spent on them. The breakfast and tea stops were good. Definitely need good shoes as the walk on Atlas mountain Imlil was quite strenuous and some of the paths were streams and bridges. Overall good value for money and good day out of Marrakesh.

    We had a brilliant day! Our tour guide, Chrif picked us up on time, which was great as we had no data. The camels were amazing and the hike was also incredible. The whole day was terrific! I thank our tour guide Chrif for being amazing and always going out of his way to make sure we were comfortable! Thank you

    Very beautiful experience, which deserved all the money. Ben Cherif, our guide, has been brilliant, friendly and kind the whole trip, explaining us a lot of things during every stop that we took. Very nice the camel ride and awesome the nature and waterfalls at the Atlas mountains. Will come back for sure and hope to meet again Ben Cherif, it's been a pleasure to meet him!
