Imlil Day Trip from Marrakech

My boyfriend and I went on a 2 day trek up Mt Toubkal. They organised everything, picked us up from our hotel in central Marrakech, the 1.5hr drive to Imlil, the meals and support on the trek, and transport back to central Marrakech. Our guide, Hussan, was really supportive, a nice and funny guy who made us feel comfortable. He often walked a minute or two ahead of us, giving us space and freedom, while keeping an eye on us making sure we were safe and happy. Also the food was pretty good! We upgraded to a private room at basecamp and are really glad we did because there were some large tour groups who were quite loud in the dorms. The room was pretty cold in November, we were provided with good thick blankets to stay warm. We were able to get really touch and go phone signal at basecamp outside the building. We did the trek in November, and so had to rent (with Hussan's help) crampons. We've done other big treks, and this one was more physically challenging than I was expecting with the snow, rocks and steep slopes. The views were so breath-taking, an amazing experience. Thank you so much!

We were a group of 6 friends, and booked a day trip from Marrakech. Hassan came on time with a driver. We drove 1.5 pleasant hours towards Imlil and stopped on the way for nice photos. The hike started from Imlil village, after a coffee/tea we started to walk-first on the road, but after few min we entered into a shadowed trail with nice big trees of walnuts and apples which were full of fruits. The first part of the hike was climbing to get to an upper village. We walked through the village which was authentic beber village overlooking the Toubkal peak (was amazing view) and arrived for lunch in a guesthouse on the way. Lunch was very good (actually, the best we ate in Maroco). After lunch we started to go down through some very nice waterfall and returned to Imlil again. We asked Hassan to stop for us to buy aragan oil and a tajin and he made these 2 stops, one in a women's cooperative that are making the aragan products there which was very exciting. Hassan was very nice, patient and knowledgeable and shared with us private and common knowledge. Thank you Hassan for a lovely day!

I completed the Toubkal Circuit with Hassan and had a brilliant experience. I booked the tour several months in advance and Hassan was very attentive, answering any questions and providing lots of information about the trip. I did the trip with 6 of my friends, in a private group. Hassan picked us up from out hostel in Marrakech and we drove to Imlil, where we met our other guides and the mules. The trip was fantastic; beautiful scenery and camp grounds. We were served plenty of delicious food throughout every day and even got to stay at a guest house. Hassan is a very friendly guide and was very flexible, adapting plans to suit our group. The walking was between 4 and 8 h each day and there were several swimming opportunities. I would definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a trip to the Atlas Mountains.
