Asni

Asni describes both the small village where the grande taxis drop you and the wider valley, however if we just consider the village: It is split into two parts. The 'commercial' area, down by the main road. Here there are shops lined up on either side of the road. Behind the shops up a slope to the south? a short distance is the 'residential' part of the village, consisting of 50 or so houses.

Obviously walking on foot is the way to get around as the village is only a few hundred metres wide.

A old green Mercedes-Benz minibus shuttles between Asni and Imlil all day long from 7am onwards. Wait at the taxi area until someone shouts "ImlilImlilImlilImlilImlil!". It should cost just 10 dirhams Aug 2008 prices: Don't get ripped off. A taxi shouldn't cost that much more about 15Dh to Imlil; about 30Dh to Marrakech. If, as a tourist, you're quoted a price in the 100s of dirhams this happens, say it's too expensive and walk away. You'll instantly be called back and asked to name your price: they will still want your business even if they can't rip you off.
