This full-day trip from Marrakech lasts about 8 hours and 20 minutes, including hotel pickup and drop-off. The journey begins with a drive through green valleys and traditional Berber villages toward the High Atlas Mountains. Along the way, there is a visit to the village of Azrou and a stop at a women's argan oil cooperative where guests can taste fresh bread, oil, and Moroccan tea. Upon arrival in the High Atlas, a local guide leads a two-hour easy-to-moderate hike through mountain trails, passing terraced fields, walnut trees, and Berber villages. The walk includes regular stops for photos and explanations about Berber culture and daily life. After the hike, guests are invited to a traditional Berber house for a homemade Moroccan lunch featuring tagine, salads, Moroccan bread, and mint tea served in a family setting. Following lunch, the hike continues along an easy trail with views over the valley. The tour ends in the village of Imlil, where guests have tea and observe local Berber life before returning by vehicle to Marrakech, arriving in the early evening. The tour includes hotel pickup and drop-off, bottled water, breakfast, in-vehicle air conditioning, tea and coffee, and a tour guide. Lunch is not included, and camel rides are no longer offered due to animal welfare concerns. Transport is available for those who prefer not to walk.
