We had a very pleasant stay, however brief, at the Riad. Houssein was very helpful and patient with us, as our plans changed midway through vis-a-vis our trekking trip. He was flexible and worked with us to line up a guide and gear very last minute and made the logistics of coordinating baggage drop off at the end of our stay and a taxi back to Marrakech very simple. We also met some very pleasant fellow guests and the view was spectacular and the food bountiful. to contact owner directly : email:atlasguidemorocco@yahoo.fr website: www.riadoussagou.com website: www.trekmoroccoo.com - a guest Tue, 01 Dec 2009 21:19:35 +0100 http://www.atmagazine.co.uk/content/view/144/94/#comment-260 Mohamed Aztat is a tour guide in Imlil and he is the owner of the guesthouse called Dar Adrar, brief he can arrange everthing you wish.

I can’t remember too much about the nights I spent there, in fact I choose to block them out. But I can tell you it was on a par with fitting 50 smelly climbers (and guides) into a smart car and then telling them to cook a meal. Bring back the good old days. - McMurphy Fri, 02 Nov 2007 13:01:55 +0100 http://www.atmagazine.co.uk/content/view/144/94/#comment-22 You\'re right about the cost of taxi\'s from the airport Henry but you can pick up a cab in Marrakech (or you could when I was last there) to whisk you to Imlil for under £20 - and the driver will make as many tea stops as you want. You can also hire ice axes and crampons if you ask around in Imlil though the set of spikes we picked up were about as useful as strapping a plate of couscous to your feet - Alun Thu, 01 Nov 2007 16:26:13 +0100
