What makes this activity truly unique is the combination of adventure and authentic cultural immersion. You'll get to hike through the stunning Atlas Mountains, enjoying panoramic views and peaceful trails that most tourists never see. But what really sets it apart is the chance to visit my family's home in a traditional Berber village. Here, you'll cook alongside my mother and wife, learning how to prepare real Moroccan dishes like tajine or couscous, using fresh ingredients straight from the village.

This isn’t just a cooking class or a hike; it’s a chance to connect with local culture in a genuine and personal way. Plus, the experience is completely flexible—you can tailor the day to suit your interests, whether that means more hiking, more cooking, or exploring nearby villages. It’s a full day that lets you dive deep into the heart of Morocco, all in just a few hours.

Great day with Youness and his family!! We had the opportunity to know his village and his family! If you want to run away from tourists in Marrakech, this is for you. The best thing is that he will prepare the day as you want (if you want more cooking, more cooking, if you want more hiking, more hiking). It was a pleasure to have conversations with him and to enjoy the whole day!!! Youness, we will manage to make the keftas again (first try was not good, hehe). Thanks Youness for a great day and for your advices... regards to the family! coming soon our own keftas! ;) David & Cris!!
AMAZING!!!

This experience was so much fun! My friends and I had such an amazing time on the hike and the views were absolutely beautiful. We had never been to Morocco before, and Younis and his family were so so SO kind and accommodating to us! They made us feel right at home. I cannot recommend this tour enough!

I just came back home from 2 days spent with Younes and his family. I think this is the best experience you can have if you came to Marokko to know more about the culture. Younes is very open and interested in other cultures as well, it is the ideal bridge to bring you closer to Marokko. He is knowledgable about plants, mountains and berber music. It is very interesting to chat with him. Hiking was very nice and peaceful because there were not tourists in the area, the best way to recover from the chaos in Marrakech. Also I really enjoyed cooking with Younes and his lovely family, they are very welcoming and they also adapt to me being vegetarian.

Just come back from Marocco, I would like to share one of the best experience I had ! Me and a friend of mine booked a 2 days hiking private tour with Younes near Amizmiz village, sorrounded by the Atlas Mountains. During those days we have been hiking around the area that offers incredibile views, guided by Younes, that gave us a lot of insights about the region and the nature, and prepared for us a delicious picnic and the typical mint tea (pay attention, it’ s addictive 🤭). We spend the night at Younes’ home, in his born village, together with his lovely wife Kowtar, that was preparing for us amazing breakfast and afternoon snacks with fresh bread, pancakes and mint tea. We had the opportunity to cook together the typical dishes trying the real local cuisine. We prepare the chicken bastilla (now on my favorite meal list ) and a vegetarian tajine. On the second day Kowtar prepared also a delicious cous cous that we experienced eating ‘with the hands’ like they use to do. Younes’ father, that ate with us, had a remarkable technique for crafting these little balls into perfect bites, more years of experience 🤣 During the 2 days was super interesting to discover new things about berber culture and traditions, and was a unique experience to share simple life moments with the family that makes us feel part of them. Was inspiring to listent to Younes story, starting from when he was a child and learn about the struggles and challenges he faces to guarantee the best life possible to his family and to support his community. To conclude, the family is super hospitable and makes sure you lack for nothing. I highly recommend it to people looking for an authentic experience and a deeper connection with the locals. There are some moments lived there that I will save in my memories forever.

I was looking for a tour during my 6 days stay in Marrakech with 10 years old daughter, which we can have experience to feel real life of Morroco. We joined different type of tours, Quat, Camel ridibg, Hot air barroon, even on hiking to villages similar to this tour. This was our last day for last tour, which I was keep searching to find to feel real life but not so much tourism. And this is it. I would strongly reccomend you to join this tour with Yourness to feel real life of Morroco, he can do this because he will invite us in the village which he was born & glow for himself. Noce trails for hiking with a lot of explanations about natures, herbs on mountains, holes of scopions. And so nice to meet with his wife who is very gentle & kind who also teach us how to cook Tajin. Eating Tajin together and learn how to eat by hand / about eating ‘territory’ when we eat Tajin together was so nice experience. I won’t forget this tour and wish it stays in my daughters memory as great experience for her life:) Thanks Yourness!!!

"I had an amazing day hiking in the beautiful Amizmiz Valley with Younes as our guide. The scenic trails and his insights made it unforgettable. The experience was topped off with a hands-on cooking class where we learned to make delicious Moroccan dishes with local ingredients. A perfect blend of adventure and culture!"

This trip was utterly amazing! Youness showed us around the beautiful Atlas Mountains and invited us to their family home there. His mother Fatima made us the most amazing bread when we arrived. Kawtar, who is the cooking workshop expert (and is also Youness’ wife) showed us everything for making Bastilla, and it was one of the best dishes we have ever made. It was great to learn and I will make it at home for all my friends. When we were done cooking, we ate the Bastilla together with the whole family. It was a lovely and authentic Berber experience! We felt very welcome and grateful to have met these amazing people. I cannot recommend this tour enough, thank you Kawtar and Youness! If you want to experience the true hospitality of Morocco, go and book this trip 😃

We had an amazing time with Youness! The hike through the Atlas Mountains was beautiful and relaxing, and afterward, we got to meet his family and cook a traditional couscous. The whole experience felt authentic and personal. Youness was a great host, and everything was well-organized. Highly recommend if you're looking for something special while in Marrakech!
