Great value! Kuddos to Hussain and Mustafa - Great value for money. Punctual pick up time and well organized. Most importantly we were very happy with our guide Hussain. He was engaging and spoke great English. He was able to answer all our questions and helped the kids (7 and 10) climb up whilst my husband and I could focus on our own climbing. The restaurant that was chosen for lunch was ok… too crowded and long waiting time. There were other restaurants nearer to the waterfall with better views that had enough seating. So would suggest to deviate from the tour restaurant. All in all we had a fantastic time and would repeat. Lastly the driver Mustafa was also very social and explained a lot about Morocco itself.

Day trip to Ourika Valley - Transfer via Merc SUV with our host Sharif who took us to the market in Ourika which was fascinating, then on into the Atlas Mountains to the village of Setti Fadma. There we met our guide, Mohamed, who took us up to the waterfall at around 5000 feet. The trek took around one and a half hours and is very worthwhile, though people with mobility issues may find it challenging. On our return, we had lunch by the river where the food and service were excellent. Return journey to Marrakech took around an hour. Both Sharif and Mohamed were helpful and informative and looked after us really well. They and the trip are highly recommended.

Trap for tourists - The natural part is beautiful, the mountain, the waterfall, but the huge amount of tourists, shops on the slope and cafes disrupt the dream. I went on a little tour in a wagon with tourists. Stop in a Berber house where we see making tea and where we can taste (all made for tourists to see), we also stopped to see a store where they sell cosmetic products (with a guide who swallowed a k7 and speaks super to dispatch). Then it was time for lunch ( very bad food served by the river. If you can bring your own food and drink. And possibly there will be other places on the mountain without this tourist roommate.
