Trekking in Style Traveller Reviews

We are two friends who went on a trekking holiday in Morocco.

The tour operators were very responsible and responsive. We had to delay our trip due to an earthquake and they were very helpful and considerate in replanning and rescheduling.

We had hoped to trek last fall, but had to postpone because of the earthquake, so our trip this September was long-anticipated. Everything about our experience was magnificent--the dramatic scenery of the High Atlas Mountains, the treks through the villages, every single staff person at both the Kasbah and the trekking lodge in Azzaden, and the amazing guide, Abdul, cooks, Mohammed and Mohammed, and muleteer, Yousef. The Kasbah is beautiful and gracious, and as a novice trekker, I particularly appreciated the kindness of all in shaping our trek so that I could fully participate, including choosing a route where I'd be able to ride the mule if steepness was too much. I'll be remembering this trip always with gratitude and awe.

We appreciated the social consciousness of the Kasbah and its owners, particularly their NGO, Education for All, which works to advance life for the Berber/ Amazich people through educating girls in secondary and advanced institutions.

Everything about our time at Dar Imlil and the Azzaden Lodge was exceptional. Our corner room at the Dar Imlil was gorgeous and we had marvellous views from both balconies. The food at Dar Imlil was excellent and the cook had no problem meeting our needs as vegetarians. The same was true at the Azzaden Lodge. The staff at both locations made us feel as if we were a part of there family. We can’t say enough about our mountain guide Abdul. It was a joy to be with him and his selection of trekking routes was superb. We would highly recommend Abdul as a guide for anyone thinking about trekking in the High Atlas.

From our first contact to our last the tour operator was phenomenal. The information that was provided was very clear and all of our questions were answered quickly.

5 nights in High Atlas, 2 nights in Essaouira

Discover Ltd were great at pretty much everything especially given the circumstances created by the Earthquake and were able to offer excellent alternative accommodation and deal with a last minute change in departure time. All local staff were superb as was the food,

5 day all inclusive trekking holiday in and around the Imlil valley in the high Atlas mountains

Discovery Travel is a UK based operator. We booked the trip from Australia and communication with the operator was smooth and easy. No hiccups. Information provided was comprehensive and accurate.

We particularly enjoyed the mountain villages and village life we witnessed.

Discover.Ltd: very good communication and very helpful

We spent 5 days trekking in the Atlas Mountains with Discover Ltd. Our package “ Trekking in Style” included 3 nights at the Kasbah du Toubkal at Imlil and 2 nights at the Remote Trekking Lodge in the Azzaden Valley. All the accommodation was very comfortable, the food delicious and the staff very attentive and friendly. Our guide Mohammed was amazing. We are a couple in our late 60s and we appreciated his patience with our walking pace being somewhat slower than his! He imparted a lot of historical and local knowledge as we trekked. The scenery was a mixture of rugged slopes and beautiful autumn colours in the valleys. Overall a wonderful experience.

Our initial contact was with Responsible Travel who passed us on to Discover Ltd. Everything was very well organised and communication was excellent.

We spent 5 days trekking in the Imlil valley in Morocco.

Very professionally organized and a smooth booking experience.

Five nights in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. We had a choice of walks and covered 62km in four days in beautiful scenery. We stayed in the Kasbah du Toukbal in the village of Imlil, some 60km from Marrakech, where we spent two nights after our hiking

Transport was provided from Marrakech to the Kasbah du Toubkal in the High Atlas (and return). Great stay with 3 nights at the Kasbah and 2 nights at the remote Trekking Lodge. Wonderful trek with a guide (and lunch cook on two days) hiking through mountain passes to remote Berber villages. Food and accommodations were all excellent.

Great to work with - very efficient and helpful throughout the booking process and delivered as promised! Would recommend and use again.
