Amazing, brilliant, inspiring… I can really see why it’s so hard not to go back! The most memorable part of the week was the hamman in Marrakech, mostly because it involved being thoroughly scrubbed by a rather large woman whilst lying naked on a tiled floor in a dark steamy room down one of the back alleys of Marrakech – it was so far removed from my normal life!

Excellent, exceeded my expectations, all ran like clockwork from the pre-holiday assistance through to our wonderful head guide who even got up at 5am to ensure that I got safely into my taxi to the airport!

It was really great - a fantastic experience... Most memorable was camping on a steppe just below the highest Atlas Mountains. Very cold but beautiful and remote.

The most memorable part of our holiday was walking through the villages and the contact with Barber people. The scenery was also fantastic.

We all got on very well and I know that everyone came back home enriched, but we are all so grateful to our wonderful group leader Youssef Bousdour who provided us with a magic carpet and communicated his deep love and respect for his country.

The most memorable part was undoubtedly approaching the summit of Toubkal. After an arduous climb the views opened up across the Atlas range magnificently and suddenly the extra energy was found to push to the top.

Most memorable? Two things in particular, seeing the sunrise in the Sahara desert, and the night sky in the Atlas Mountains. Just such a wonderful experience!!

Imlil was absolutely breathtaking, everywhere you looked was stunning, the accommodation, scenery, mountains, people were all incredible. We arrived on a very cold afternoon, by evening snow was falling and by morning there was 4 inches of snow!

I enjoyed the cycling through Morocco the most. Some of the scenery was stunning in the anti Atlas.

Walking in the Atlas in general was terrific with the beautiful scenery. Sleeping outside under the stars was also amazing... Second to none!

The camel ride to the dinner at the Bedouin tent; dinner at the tent; and the night in the "desert" were the most memorable parts.

It was the first holiday of this type that I have ever been on. It is difficult to say whether it is the best holiday as I have been fortunate enough to be on some wonderful holidays in the past. However, I loved the concept, the place and the people and will never forget this trip, for sure. It was fantastic!

We loved the Sahara Desert, the High Atlas Mountains, the zest of Marrakesh city, and our cooking class. Our children loved the sand boarding, decorating pottery with henna, the music and jokes around the campfire and the unique opportunity to actually collect fossils from a hill range.

Many memorable experiences, overnight stay in caves with a Nomad family, interactive drumming sessions with the local hotel staff, rock climbing...

This was probably one of the best trips I have ever done (and I have travelled a fair bit). We spent the first night in a Riad which was sumptuous and almost made us want to forget the planned trek into the High Atlas however off to the mountains we went the next afternoon. This was a truly unforgettable trek.

Most memorable was setting out v. early a.m for the summit and watching the light come up as you see what you've just climbed in the dark!

There were lots of highlights on this trip because there were so many different textures but sunrise on the desert stands out for us.
