Best day in Morocco ! - Only myself booked on the trip but went ahead as Youssef didn't want to disappoint me. He was a great guide who was very accomdating of my slow pace and gave me plenty of time to catch my breath and take photos. The scenery was breathtaking and Youssef was very happy to chat and answer all my questions about the surrounding area and Moroccan culture. Afterwards we went to his father's house and had a fabulous, filling, authentic Moroccan meal, and before my transfer back, I had time to wander round the village and take it all in. I would thoroughly recommend this trip to any level of runner as Youssef will adapt to you. He very much wants you to enjoy your experience and is very attentive and caring. Meeting his father was a real honour and I felt very comfortable in their company. My only regret ................ wasn't long enough. Next time I'm in Morocco, I will be heading straight for the hills !

Incredible running experience - This running experience was the highlight of our holiday (and honeymoon) in Morocco. We were picked up in Marrakesh by Ibrahim for the 90 minute journey to the mountains. Ibrahim was a great tour guide, sharing lots of interesting information about life in Morocco. The journey flew by. We then met our tour guide Noureddine, a champion Ultra Runner, who guided us through the spectacular route in the mountains. The photos don’t do it justice. My wife is a sub 3 marathon runner so was able to go fast. I am a 4+ hours marathon runner so was going much slower on the 15k route. Noureddine was very accommodating and never made me feel like I was going too slow. After the run we had a fantastic Moroccan meal at the family home, with amazing views of the mountains. We hope more runners discover this hidden gem. Thank you to Youssef, Noureddine, Ibrahim and all the family for an unforgettable experience.

Best day in the mountains - An amazing day where our big group was splitted into subgroups with personal guides in Youssefs staff. Great views and perfect lunch on the sunny terasse. Coming back every year!

Very unique day for the kids and us and our running shoes - What a great day and experience with Youssef and Nourdine! Such lovely, caring and experienced people! The one took us on an amazing run through the mountains while the other took the kids to a walk through the countryside. Finally we had such a lovely meal at their house including tea with their father. Thanks to Youssef and his family! We highly recommend this special day for everyone with running shoes and the interest for nature and culture!

Twice summit of Toubkal in 1 WEEK 🤩 - One more weekend (after having done it several times with Youssef) with Noureddine to do Imlil-Sommet-Imlil on Saturday morning then again on Sunday morning 😊 These guys are great! Not only very physically strong but caring and very attentive. I can only highly recommend them to anyone who wants to quickly get up and down our Toubkal 😊 Very very nice and to do again very soon!!! Thanks to Youssef and Nourredine!!!

Summit Toubkal and back - What a brilliant day I had with Nourdine. My plan was to run to the top of Mount Toubkal and back as quickly as I could. I was let down by European company so I arrived in Imlil looking for a guide. I went for a run up the hill and the police checkpoint referred me to these guys. I am quite a quick ultra runner so it's not easy to find someone to guide you. Nourdine is super fast but runs at your speed and constantly checks that everything is ok. The run up and back surpassed my expectations and Nourdine got me to the top around 3:40. We had great fun racing down through the tourists and mules. I am a seasoned ultra runner and travel extensively so I know a good service when I see it. These guys are highly recommended. You will have a great time with them! Run happy in Imhil, it's a great place.

The best ever trail run - An incredible trail run. A range of challenges and experiences - mountains, villages, streams and forests and the views were just incredible. We are both average runners (2 hour half marathon (road) fitness level) and found this 15km trail run the perfect level of challenge. Literally the most enjoyable run I have ever done.
