Excursions with Berber Travel Adventures are different from other tour experiences. You’ll encounter firsthand the beauty and hospitality of Moroccan culture by visiting real Berber homes in the villages of the High Atlas mountains south of Marrakech. You’ll spend an afternoon, two days, or more meeting the people and learning about their lives. Our excursions aren’t about camels and palm trees, but discovering another way of life.

our excursions...
Countless travellers from five continents
have enjoyed our excursions. Here are a few.
I would thoroughly recommend Berber Travel Adventures. You are not simply buying a hike you are buying a view through the doorway of Moroccan culture....It gave me a valuable insight into how one part of the world lives.

The family was very welcoming and nice, and it was interesting to see how they lived....Jamal was all the time very patient and kind and answered all our thousands of questions. He has great knowledge and is a very good guide.
