Excellent day. Lots of things to experience 😀 - The meal and camel ride great and also the walk to the waterfall. When our guide explained that it was his family that were involved with the experience,cooking the delicious meal we would have liked to know this before the meal to appreciate and thank them Guide was lovely, but again didn't introduce himself by name to the group! But thoroughly enjoyed the day.

10/10 - The camel ride was so fun, and we were given plenty opportunities to take photos. The van that took us around was air conditioned and we were provided lots with water. There is a lot of walking involved though, so wear appropriate shoes!

Amazing! - We had a beautiful day discovering the Atlas, Imlil Valley, the desert and so much more with our guide Ibrahim. Started the day off with a dromedary ride and some Morrocan tea and sweets. Afterwards we drove to a women's Argan oil cooperative where we had breakfast trying the organ oil and Morrocan olive oil with bread and tea. We had a lovely walk through the valley to have lunch in his family home at the Berber village with a gorgeous view of the mountains. We ended the day with a cup of tea in the desert of Agafay with a romantic backdrop of the sunset on the desert. Definitely the hightlight of our trip. Choukran!
