Camel ride from heaven! - A fantastic experience, camels are the best! Hisham was the ideal host and tour guide and we would recommend him to anyone who is tempted to experience the desert at its best.

Fantastic day's activity and enjoyment - We started with a camel ride, having visited the wonderful Berber village. We then trekked in the foothills of Toubkal mountain for a couple of hours walking with our wonderful guide, Mohamed Sarkozi - such a lovely and engaging man. He delivered us to a riad for a fine lunch before walking and talking with us as we returned to Imlil to meet our driver for the return to Marrakesh. A truly wonderful day - Thank you Mohamed.

2 Day Trips to Agafay Desert, Imlil, and Ouzoud Waterfalls - We spent two days with Toubkal driver Hisham going to the Ouzoud waterfalls, Agafay desert to ride camels, and Imlil for a guided day hike. The experiences were all awesome on their own but I cannot speak highly enough about our driver Hisham. He made us feel so comfortable with his professional enthusiasm, perfect English, and wonderful recommendations. We can’t wait to go back to Marrakesh and highly recommend Toubkal to book your excursions. Just make sure to ask for Hisham!

Fantastic Day Trip - Great Value for Money - My wife, daughter and I took this tour and had the best day of our holiday in Morocco. We were picked up from near our Riad in Marrakech by our driver, Ibrahim, who was friendly, immensely helpful, fantastically knowledgeable about everything we saw that day and imperturbably calm while negotiating our passage through the frantic Marrakech traffic. We went first to the Agafay Desert to ride the camels. It was huge fun. After that we drove across the Kik Plateau to Imlil, where we were introduced to our guide for the hike, also called Ibrahim, who patiently led us first to a spectaular waterfall and then on up to a Berber village for mint tea and a much-needed rest. It was not a difficult climb but, if like me, you spend most of your year sitting at a desk it’s a thorough work-out. From there to the guesthouse where we had lunch, the route is along unmade roads, a much easier progress than the initial clamber. After a good lunch of chicken tagine, salad, bread, olives and fresh fruit while looking at spectacular views down the valley, the descent back to Imlil was a relaxed stroll through beautiful countryside in warm February sunshine. The drive back to Marrakech followed a different route to that of the morning, providing fresh sights of interest. I would unhesitatingly recommend Toubkal Guide to anyone who wants a really nice day trip.

Atlas Mountains Day Tour - We booked a 1 day tour with this company to trek from Imlil to Sidi Chamharouch. The driver Yassin arrived at our hotel before the prearranged time. He was very courteous and friendly during the whole time on the way there and back to the hotel. Ibrahim we met in Imlil was fantastic. He was a very experienced guide so he knew when to walk and when to pause. The lunch at the Guesthouse was absolutely delicious and plentiful. All in all we had a great time with this company and we can highly recommend them for any types of hiking/trekking in Atlas Mountains.

The full Moroccan experience - We had a lovely day out and it felt like we got the full Moroccan experience! Our driver Abdul was nice and friendly and communication was good regarding pick up times etc. On the way to Atlas Mountains we had a camel riding experience which was fun and we liked the traditional outfits. We then went to an Argan oil place and had a snack which was great before we went on our trek through the mountains - which actually went really quickly as the place was so beautiful. Overall everyone was friendly and we really enjoyed the experience :-)

Interesting day out with amazing scenery - We had a great day out with our host Ibrahim. It was day out to the Atlas mountain, with incredible off road and amazing scenery. Much thanks to Ibrahim who ensured we were well informed but also made us feel very comfortable and engaged. We had a nice meal at the lodge and enjoyed the beautiful views around us. We are very pleased we were able to see some part of Morocco and the experience has been very humbling for us as it reminds us of how very little we are when surrounding by the beauty and strength of nature. Thank you Ibrahim, it was a pleasure to spend the day with you. We will keep in touch.
