The tour guide was very kind and informative, Abderriham Didi did a great job of showcasing the region and culture and the driver Abdeslam delivered us to the various activities safely and comfortably. One thing to note was even though I booked the talamrout summit tour, I was instead taken on a different itinerary that included camel riding and a visit to an argan oil cooperative, followed by a much shorter “hike” than the one I booked. This change was not communicated to me in any official capacity, I only found out after the bus had left Marrakech when the itinerary provided by the guide didn’t match what I had booked. When I inquired, I was told there was poor weather, even though it was a beautiful day in Imlil when we visited later in the day. To be clear, this is nothing against the guide, Abderriham was fantastic and helped me make the most of the day. However, I was disappointed by the way the itinerary was changed with zero communication. As nice as the activities on the alternate tour were, I booked the trip because I was looking for a proper day of hiking in the Atlas Mountains, and I ended up leaving Morocco without getting the main experience that I travelled here for.
A superb experience. Pick up was timely and the mountain guide was experienced, caring and helpful in every way. We loved this day out
This trip started quite stressful as we were not collected by the tour company. After repeated phone calls with help from our hotel and 1 hour and 30 mins late we were picked up by a taxi and taken to the Atlas Mountains where we had a private tour with a wonderful guide called Omar. I am pleased that the tour company recognized their mistake and sorted out this option as it was the best tour we went on in Marrakesh. Passing through the most scenic snow capped views and across valleys with villages dotted around, Omar, the guide was professional and supportive when crossing tricky areas or slippery climbs (it had snowed the previous day) I plan to come back again to climb here and will ask for Omar. Lunch was included and was sumptuous and Salma was a friendly and warm hostess at the restaurant.
