THE HOTEL
Jebel Toubkal is the highest peak in North Africa, and Kasbah du Toubkal is located at the foot, making an ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, and to relax and unwind. The Atlas Mountains are just approximately an hour away from the Red City but feel like a different world with their dramatic hilltops and breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys.
Explore the village, nearby hamlets and the surrounding mountain landscape, on foot or by mule, or just put your feet up and relax on the terrace or in the hammam (steam bath). The Kasbah is particularly suitable for groups and families.
Pay a visit to a local berber family and house to take part in a traditional tea ceremony.
We appreciated knowing the travel specialist (Katie Sims) from the previous A&K holiday. The hotels in Grenada and Cordoba were excellent.
