This 9 day program allows for some time initially to acclimatise to the altitude before the actual ascent of Jebel Toubkal (4167m), North Africa's highest mountain. Along the way you'll see several Berber villages and stay in local Berber guest houses as well as sampling the local cuisine. The trip starts and finishes in Marrakesh arguably one of the most fascinating North African cities.
