Best day in the mountains - An amazing day where our big group was splitted into subgroups with personal guides in Youssefs staff. Great views and perfect lunch on the sunny terasse. Coming back every year!

Very unique day for the kids and us and our running shoes - What a great day and experience with Youssef and Nourdine! Such lovely, caring and experienced people! The one took us on an amazing run through the mountains while the other took the kids to a walk through the countryside. Finally we had such a lovely meal at their house including tea with their father.
Thanks to Youssef and his family! We highly recommend this special day for everyone with running shoes and the interest for nature and culture!

Twice summit of Toubkal in 1 WEEK 🤩 - One more weekend (after having done it several times with Youssef) with Noureddine to do Imlil-Sommet-Imlil on Saturday morning then again on Sunday morning 😊
These guys are great! Not only very physically strong but caring and very attentive. I can only highly recommend them to anyone who wants to quickly get up and down our Toubkal 😊
Very very nice and to do again very soon!!!
Thanks to Youssef and Nourredine!!!

Summit Toubkal and back - What a brilliant day I had with Nourdine. My plan was to run to the top of Mount Toubkal and back as quickly as I could. I was let down by European company so I arrived in Imlil looking for a guide. I went for a run up the hill and the police checkpoint referred me to these guys.
I am quite a quick ultra runner so it's not easy to find someone to guide you.
Nourdine is super fast but runs at your speed and constantly checks that everything is ok.
The run up and back surpassed my expectations and Nourdine got me to the top around 3:40. We had great fun racing down through the tourists and mules.
I am a seasoned ultra runner and travel extensively so I know a good service when I see it.
These guys are highly recommended. You will have a great time with them! Run happy in Imhil, it's a great place.

The best ever trail run - An incredible trail run. A range of challenges and experiences - mountains, villages, streams and forests and the views were just incredible. We are both average runners (2 hour half marathon (road) fitness level) and found this 15km trail run the perfect level of challenge. Literally the most enjoyable run I have ever done.

One night in Imlil village at the hospitality of Youssef and a hike towards Toubkal summit with Youssef and his crew. - Hiking around the village of Imlil and the National Parc of Toubkal is an amazing experience with the landscapes and the beautiful nature. But what made it better is the company of Youssef And his Crew that were so humble, cheerful and helpful in the whole trip. They planned the whole trip and met our expectations in the village of Imlil and also in the mountain guest house.
Tres bonne expérience et un professionnalisme parfait de la part de Youssef et son équipe !
