Great day out! - Picked up on time by the excellent Said, who was very friendly and happy to answer any questions. He drove us with great care through the streets of Marrakech to get to the valley and the waterfall (top tip, sit in the front seats with him!). The visit to the Argan cooperative was fun and educational, no pressure to buy but prices were reasonable. It was great to see lots of local families enjoying the walk to the waterfalls, and we had a great guide who took us on a circular route that had superb views. Food at the riverside restaurant was generous and good quality, with Said checking in on us to ensure all was well. Our drive back gave our feet a rest and we were dropped off as expected, with a smile 😁. Thanks to Said and the team, great day and great value! !

Enjoyable Trip - A very enjoyable trip from the on-time pickup to the interesting visit to the Berber house, scenic lunch in Setti Fatima by the Ourika river and then the mountain trek to Ouzoud waterfalls. Special mention for our guide Mohamed who went above and beyond to get us up and down from the waterfall safely.

Nice - Overall great experience. DO NOT wear sandals you will be hiking up steep and sometimes slippery rocks. The argan oil factory is great, loved it! Ourika Valley is beautiful but filled with tourists, only thing is we had to wait over a hour for food, included meals are taken care of first. Quite unorganised, staff are overworked, people who came later than us got food first. Food is okay. Small portions. Our driver Mohammad was nice though. Van is comfy and the guide we had through the mountains was very nice and helpful.

Great and varied experience - recommended! - Pick up was prompt and the guide was friendly! Visiting the Berber house was really interesting, as was the argan oil place. The hike at the end was very enjoyable with some stunning views and a nice waterfall, but personally would have preferred it to be longer. Highlight of the trip was lunch by the river - really beautiful setting for some lovely food!

Good but dangerous! - We had a good day, we went to a traditional Moroccan house, which was a bit weird and unexpected? The family were actually living in the house, along with a cow, sheep, donkey and rabbit chained up inside which was sad to see and the smell was not great. Lunch location by the river was lovely. We then went on a hike to a waterfall, we were prepared to hike and climb, but was not prepared for the sheer dangerous terrain. We were climbing up and up, on very unstable routes, narrow pathways over rocks with sheer drops and trying to dodge people coming down. Two friends were very distraught, but once up there was no going back. Thankfully we managed to arrive back safely and the views were spectacular, but not recommended for aged 1-80 as advertised, I would not take small children or my parents on this trip. More information on the hike, shoes and what to expect needs to be clearer.
