The day trip usually starts early in the morning, with a pick-up from your accommodation in Marrakech. The drive to the High Atlas Mountains takes around an hour and a half, and you'll pass through beautiful scenery and small towns along the way. The tour guide will provide interesting commentary about the region and answer any questions you may have.
Once you arrive in the High Atlas, you'll be surrounded by stunning mountain views and fresh air. The tour guide will take you on a hike or trek, depending on your preference and fitness level. They'll recommend the best routes and provide you with interesting information about the flora, fauna, and geology of the region.
During the hike, you'll pass through small Berber villages and have the opportunity to interact with the locals. The Berbers are the indigenous people of Morocco, and their culture and traditions are still very much alive in the High Atlas Mountains. You'll have the chance to learn about their way of life and ask questions about their customs and beliefs.
After the hike, you'll have lunch in a traditional Berber restaurant. The tour guide will recommend some of the best restaurants in the area and provide information about the different dishes. Berber cuisine is known for its hearty stews and tagines, made with locally sourced ingredients and spices.
Finally, it's time to head back to Marrakech. The drive back takes around an hour and a half, and you'll have the opportunity to rest and reflect on the day's experiences.
