Itinerary!
We will meet you outside of Café Argana at 8:30 am (in Jamaa el Fna square) or pick you up from your Riad/Hotel. From there we will be picked up by our driver and begin our journey to the High Atlas mountains.
Our first stop will be a peaceful place where you'll be dressed in traditional Berber clothes and enjoy a camel ride.
Next we'll drive to a women's argan oil cooperative where there will be a bread & oil tasting with Moroccan tea.
Next stop will be Imlil (altitude 1740 m), the picturesque and lively valley which will be the starting point for our hike. It is a nice place with a fast flowing river, walnut trees and very traditional Berber villages dotted throughout. From here we will start our walk with a leisurely stop at my charming home where you can take in the stunning view from the rooftop terrace while you enjoy a delicious Berber lunch prepared lovingly.
After lunch we'll continue our walk through the Berber villages and pass by a spectacular waterfall, after which we will find our car waiting to drive us back to Marrakech (arriving back in the city at approximately 5:30pm).
