- Excursion Marrakech Medina - Embark on an unforgettable day trip from Marrakech to the enchanting Imlil Valley in the High Atlas Mountains. Experience breathtaking landscapes, immerse yourself in traditional Berber culture, and enjoy a delightful lunch amidst nature.
Your adventure begins with a morning pick-up from your accommodation in the Marrakech Medina or nearby hotels. Leave the city’s hustle behind as you journey south towards the mountains. The first stop is the quaint town of Tahnaout, where you can capture photos by the river and visit a local women’s Argan oil cooperative. Discover the traditional methods of producing Morocco’s renowned Argan oil.
-
Tahnaout - From Tahnaout, continue your journey through the picturesque roads of the Atlas Mountains, passing terraced hills and charming villages. Pause briefly in the town of Asni, near the famous Kasbah Tamadot owned by Sir Richard Branson, for a fantastic photo opportunity overlooking the Asni Valley.
-
Imlil - Arrive in Imlil, a scenic mountain village at the base of Mount Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak. In Imlil, meet your local mountain guide who will lead you on a gentle trek through the village and towards the tranquil Tidli Forest. Surrounded by pine and juniper trees, this is a perfect retreat into nature.
-
Imlil - After a refreshing walk, enjoy a traditional Berber lunch in a stunning natural setting—perhaps under walnut trees or with views of the surrounding valleys. The meal includes local specialties like tagine, fresh bread, Moroccan salads, and mint tea, served with warm Berber hospitality.
Following lunch, continue your walk back down to Imlil, passing the charming Imlil waterfalls along the way. Relish the serene atmosphere and capture the final moments of your mountain escape. Once back in the village, reunite with your driver and begin the return journey to Marrakech.
- Medina of Marrakesh - Return to the city by late afternoon, around 5:30 PM, with a heart full of memories and a camera full of stunning views. This day trip is perfect for those seeking to blend light adventure with culture, nature, and exquisite food, all within a single unforgettable day.
