Just a quick review, as I have just returned from an 8 day trip with Rendez-vous Marocain. It was great to book direct with the local trekking company as they answered a number of questions I had about the area and conditions. On the trek, the guide and the vehicle were excellent throughout, with very good knowledge of the local Berber culture and history – probably because he was a Berber!
Well I have just returned from a fantastic week's trekking in the Jebel Saghro region of Morocco. Marrakech itself is a vibrant and interesting city, but being for someone like me who is into the outdoors it was great to get out into the ‘wilderness’. A good vehicle took us out to the start of our trek and Mohammed our guide (they all seemed to be called Mohammed) was excellent, introducing us to the Berber culture and explaining many things about the villages and markets. Accommodation was fine - nothing fancy, but was as you would expect on a trip like this. The pinnacle of the trip was just being away from everything and being immersed into a different place and culture – the trekking was good too!
