Hello! I'm Mohamed. I come from a lovely village called Imlil in the Atlas mountains. It's where I live and work as a guide. I've been doing this job for over ten years now. I first got interested in nature, different cultures, and mountains when I was 16, thanks to my dad, who was also a guide. What started as a hobby became my job. Now, I'm happy to help people explore the beautiful Atlas mountains and learn about Berber culture. Looking forward to meet you!
Stay at a charming hotel in Dades Valley, surrounded by dramatic gorges and Berber hospitality. Then head to Merzouga for a magical night in a luxury desert camp—enjoy camel rides, local cuisine, music, and starry skies in the heart of the Sahara. A perfect Moroccan escape awaits you come and enjoy.
