Crafted for You
Ten ways to spend a day in Morocco, each one built around someone we have worked with for years: the dada in her kitchen, the muleteer on the pass, the guide who grew up on the path you are walking. Take one to finish a journey, or build a whole week out of nothing else.
Erg Chebbi & Erg ChegagaThe Call of
The Desert
You leave Marrakech over the Tizi n’Tichka, lose the last village after Ouarzazate, and reach the sand in the hour when it turns from gold to rose. A camel carries you over the first ridge, and on the far side the camp is already lit.
- Camel trek over the dunes at golden hour
- Private camp, proper beds, hot water and a fire
- Dinner under a sky with no light pollution
Toubkal, Mgoun, Aït BouguemezWalking the
High Atlas
Mohamed, who founded Afsou Travels, was born in the Atlas mountains and knew these paths before he could read a map. Mules carry the loads, you carry a day bag, and the villages you sleep in are ones we have known for twenty five years.
- Toubkal at 4,167m, or gentler valley walking
- Berber mountain guides from the valleys themselves
- Mules and a cook, so you walk with a day bag
Fes, Meknes, Rabat, MarrakechFour Cities,
Twelve Centuries
Fes was founded in 789 and has never stopped working. We walk the four cities with historians and craftsmen rather than flag-carriers, and we time each medina for the hour it is worth seeing.
- Fes el Bali on foot, before the crowds reach it
- Tanneries, brass and cedar workshops still in use
- Private access where a licence is needed
Essaouira, Oualidia, TaghazoutWind, Fish and
Blue Shutters
Two and a half hours west of Marrakech the air changes. Essaouira is a walled port where the boats still land at four and the quay smells of grilled sardines; north of it Oualidia farms oysters, south of it Taghazout surfs.
- The ramparts and the fishing port at the hour the fleet lands
- Lunch chosen off the ice and grilled in front of you
- Argan cooperatives run by women’s collectives
Marrakech & the Ourika valleyA Morning in
a Real Kitchen
It starts in the souk at eight, choosing what you will cook from the stalls the house buys from. Then a garden kitchen outside the city, a dada who has cooked all her life, and four hours that end with everyone eating what they made.
- Market shopping with the cook, not a shopping list
- Tagine, bread, salads and mint tea from scratch
- Taught by a Moroccan dada in her own kitchen
Five More Ways to Spend a Day
Shorter experiences that slot into a journey, or fill an afternoon in Marrakech. Every one of them is private and guided by someone who does this for a living.
Camel TrekkingAn hour at sunset in the Agafay, or three days crossing the Chegaga dunes with a caravan.1 hour to 3 days
Quad BikingThe stony Agafay plateau and the palm groves north of the city, with a briefing and a guide on every ride.Half day
Hot Air BalloonLift off before sunrise over the Marrakech plain, with the Atlas turning pink on the horizon and breakfast in a Berber tent after.Sunrise, about 3 hours
Evening Food TourSix or seven stops on foot after dark, from the smoke of Jemaa el Fna to the places only the neighbourhood knows.Evening, about 4 hours
Bread and BakingMix and shape the dough, then carry your tray to the neighbourhood wood oven the way every household still does.2 to 3 hoursNot sure which belong in your week?

My 2nd trek with Authentic Travel Tour [now Afsou Travels Morocco] and with Mohamed, this time at Toubkal. Mohamed is a great guide, kind, very professional and attentive to all. Everything is perfectly organized and the scenery is beautiful. I recommend 100%.
The five day ascent of Mount Toubkal was a real dive into the heart of the Atlas and its communities. Accompanied by Mohamed, his muleteers and his cook, we lived a total immersion in this region with respect for all.
Mohammed had the talent to make us approach beautiful sites, far from places a little too touristy. He tells us with passion, humor and knowledge about his beautiful country. A true storyteller.
We did a 6 day Trek to Toubkal with Mohamed. That was really great. Mohamed is an excellent guide and he bent over backwards so that everything went well for the whole group of 16 people. I highly recommend.
Super Trek away from the roads that took us through authentic Berber villages with sublime scenery, great organization and tasty, excellent and abundant traditional local cuisine. Many thanks to Mohamed and all his team.
A 3rd unforgettable experience in the Moroccan desert! Mohamed is a very professional guide who knows how to adapt to the group and remains attentive to the needs of each with kindness.
Many thanks to our wonderful guide Mohamed and all his team for this wonderful week. We will have wonderful memories for a long time thanks to their warm welcome, their dedicated commitment and their kindness.
Magnificent yoga trek in the Valley of Roses guided by Mohamed, a guide always in a good mood and passionate about his wonderful country. Thank you for your kindness, I will keep a fantastic memory of this trip!
A beautiful trek in the Valley of the Roses, with magnificent scenery, an array of colours, the kindness of the Moroccans and above all a caring guide, Mohammed, who always listens to our needs.
During a week long trek in the Valley of the Roses, Mohamed made this trip very pleasant thanks to his good humor and his contagious joie de vivre. A big thank you to all his team.
