Excellent trip and great value for money . Mohammed our guide was outstanding and I highly recommend this trip.
Highly recommend if you want a day visiting few different places out of Marrakech City. Our driver Mustafa and guide were very attentive and ensured we were happy and had time to take photographs along the way. Note there are some steep steps to the waterfalls, but there is an option to wait for the group if you wanted to miss it out. Ilmill was very beautiful and traditional. The drive to and the location of the camel ride was breathtaking too. Definitely worth doing.
This was an amazing experience, A brilliant day trip. Couldn't hope for better and I would recommend it highly! If you want to go outside Marrakesh but have limited time, it’s a good day trip. Our trip started with Pickup from Apartment in nice 6-9 Seater SUV and then pickup for few more passengers from madena. The driver and the guide ( who could spoke both French and English) were polite and knowledgeable and guided throughout the trip and stopped at various location for photos and helped in taking our photos. We had a Tea and snacks a women's co-op, and then into the valleys and the mountains for a hike (with Mustafa ) to the waterfall at Imlil. Our driver was great photographer and was found of the Berber local music passing through the valleys it made the journey very beautiful. While returning from hiking on a sunny terrace very traditional snacks and tea were served and after that we went to local were a very delicious lunch/tea was served at the end. A few things to note: the walk to the waterfall requires comfortable shoes, and some light jacket so plan accordingly. The guide was providing all the information of the area and responding all our queries which made the journey more interesting. At last we went also to the camel ride is around 20-30 minutes just off the highway, it was very fun and a great experience and photo op. I personally felt that the cost of the overall tour was very low compare to what others were offering. All in all, I would highly recommend this experience especially with these tours.

Mohammed provided an excellent full day excursion. Large comfy Kia Sedona with good AC took us up onto the mountains with. Few interesting stops along the way . My husband enjoyed the hour long hike through the mountains to each the waterfalls and we then enjoyed a 3 course meal in his families home. Finished of the day with a camel ride . Lots of local knowledge me. Friendly guide for the day .
I have been living and working in Morocco for eight months and therefore I am well acquainted with the legendary Moroccan hospitality. But this tour has exceeded everything that can be expected: exquisite kindness, professionalism, delicious attention... Mohamed and his companions are magnificent guides and provide you with a wonderful experience. I will return, without a doubt.
