Private2-Day Berber Villages Photography Trek (Imlil & Aroumd)
About this tour
This relaxed two-day trek is about people and stories as much as landscape. Walking between Imlil and Aroumd, you photograph terraced architecture, artisans, village paths and daily Amazigh life.
Your guide introduces you to families who are happy to be photographed – a bread-baking session, a craft demonstration and a family dinner – so portraits feel natural. Golden hour over Aroumd and a dawn shoot over the terraces bookend the trip. Only 4–5 hours of walking a day.
