Atlas Mountains Hike & Family Cooking Class

We went to Amizmiz on a Tuesday: market day! It was fabulous to be able to get into the local hustle and bustle. Beautiful market with local products. Then we went by the small roads to his family home. The scenery is fabulous. We made and enjoyed a chicken couscous. Youness organized everything perfectly. Thank you to him for sharing Berber culture.

Our day in the High Atlas Mountains with Younes was an unforgettable experience. We leaned so much about the area and its people. The trek he arranged was ideal for our circumstances, far enough for us to really feel immersed in the mountains yet not so far as to be exhausting. The icing on the cake for us was to meet his family and eat a meal prepared by his wife, this gave us a real insight into life in the mountains. Thank you Younes for an amazing day.

Great service and experience in atlas mountains

Me and my sister had an amazing time with Youness and his family. We did a 2-day hiking tour with a night in a Berber village at his uncles house. The landscapes we passed were breathtaking! On the first day he picked us up from the Bus station in Amizmiz and we walked to his family, where we cooked vegetarian couscous together with his wife. She also did beautiful henna for us! We felt very welcomed and had a great time. After this we hiked up to the Berber village, where we had the chance to spend an evening with the his uncle and aunt and delicious food:) On the second day we reached a small peak and had lunch with an amazing view. Youness was very kind and could tell us a lot about his culture. We felt safe all the time and Youness adapted the tour to our wishes. We can recommend this tour if you are interested in a mix of hiking and a local culture experience.

We did this experience as a family, and it was absolutely wonderful 💛 It was the perfect activity to enjoy together, with something for everyone. The walk was easy and enjoyable, even for the kids, and the scenery was beautiful. The cooking class was a great moment to share — we all participated, learned new things, and had so much fun preparing a delicious Moroccan meal together. The family hosting us was incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel comfortable from the very beginning. We also loved the henna experience, which added a special and memorable touch, especially for the children. This is a perfect family-friendly experience, full of culture, connection, and joy. We highly recommend it to anyone traveling with family who wants to create meaningful memories together 🌿✨

We had the most lovely time with Yunis. He was knowledgable, friendly and knows the mountains so well. He took us to his house where we met his lovely wife and daughter and his wife made a gorgeous lunch. We spent a memorable day and a half with Yunis and would 100% recommend him for any length of time.

Spending a few days with a family in the Atlas Mountains has been one of the best experiences I've ever had. I wish them all the luck in the world on this new adventure.

Great day with Youness and his family!! We had the opportunity to know his village and his family! If you want to run away from tourists in Marrakech, this is for you. The best thing is that he will prepare the day as you want (if you want more cooking, more cooking, if you want more hiking, more hiking). It was a pleasure to have conversations with him and to enjoy the whole day!!! Youness, we will manage to make the keftas again (first try was not good, hehe). Thanks Youness for a great day and for your advices... regards to the family! coming soon our own keftas! ;) David & Cris!!

This experience was so much fun! My friends and I had such an amazing time on the hike and the views were absolutely beautiful. We had never been to Morocco before, and Younis and his family were so so SO kind and accommodating to us! They made us feel right at home. I cannot recommend this tour enough!

I just came back home from 2 days spent with Younes and his family. I think this is the best experience you can have if you came to Marokko to know more about the culture. Younes is very open and interested in other cultures as well, it is the ideal bridge to bring you closer to Marokko. He is knowledgable about plants, mountains and berber music. It is very interesting to chat with him. Hiking was very nice and peaceful because there were not tourists in the area, the best way to recover from the chaos in Marrakech. Also I really enjoyed cooking with Younes and his lovely family, they are very welcoming and they also adapt to me being vegetarian.
