Fantastic experience. Ismail who was our driver was relaxed and accommodating. Ibrahim our guide was knowledgeable about the area. The seating by the riverside in the restaurant was a joyful experience. The food which was served as a buffet was wonderful. There was a good spread of dishes, salads, desserts, fruits and mint tea. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Amazing experience with Mohammed (best driver) and Belhadj (best guide/animator). The whole day was great with a fun ride to get there, interesting things to learn about the Berber Culture and the Argan oil, beautiful views and finally a good meal next to the river. The experience is actually quite cheap when you look at everything you do (from 8:30 to 16:30) Careful if you’re not up for the hike (1h30 return), it can be quite challenging with all the rocks and things to clim to get to the waterfall. You can stay at the river with the guides if you prefer to pass it. Superb experience, would recommend 100%
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience in the Ourika Valley with Mohammed and Belhadj. Your kind words truly mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you again for another adventure in Morocco!
