2.Mt Toubkal Ascent Express Trek 2 Days 1 Nights

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 962 reviews · 2 days · from $147

This fast-paced Mount Toubkal trek takes you from Marrakech to Imlil, Sidi Chamharouch, and the 3,207-meter refuge before a sunrise push to North Africa’s 4,167-meter summit. Small groups, local guides such as Mohamed, Omar, Mustafa, and Yassine, meals, transport, and equipment rental options make it good value, but the second day is long and demanding.

“This was a great two days, well worth the money. Information and contact re transport was good. Met the guides in Imal, which seemed disorganised but it worked. The food throughout the trip was excellent and plentiful. The guides were supportive and did take some breaks in the way up and down. The second day is a very long day. Any equipment you require you can hire. Sleeping bags, crampons, walking poles etc.”

“The fact that we saw a real volcano and lava was unbelievable and totally worth it! The food was really good and we had incredible views! Things that could be improved are first of all, a guide that at least speaks a bit English because we couldn’t communicate at all even tho we booked the English tour. Second, the time management. We arrived pretty early on the top of the mountain and didn’t really know what to do till we hiked to Fuego. Third, we waited over an hour for our shuttle back what was pretty annoying because we were all super tired and exhausted.”
