Took my mum to Ourika Valley for her birthday and honestly it was epic! The air was soooo fresh (def needed after Marrakech heat). Our guide, Hicham, remembered everyone’s name and cracked little jokes all day. Loved the waterfall, got a tiny bit splashed but worth it for the views. Lunch at the riverside café was DELISH—get the tagine. Only thing, bring cash for the market stalls, I forgot and had to borrow from mum. Still, such a good day!

Went with my partner and honestly, Ourika Valley was even prettier than the pics! Our guide (Hicham, super chill) shared these random facts about plants and villages, which made the walk waaaay more interesting. Little crowded but the vibe was still peaceful if you wander off the main trail. The waterfall was a bit slippery—bring good shoes. We grabbed tea from a tiny café by the river (so sweet, almost too much). Would totally come again, maybe with friends next time.

Went solo, joined a mixed group. The scenery was beautiful, especially the green mountains against clear blue sky. Our driver was a little late but apologized and explained traffic. The walk up to the waterfall is kinda steep, so wear decent shoes (I wore sandals, not smart). Guide was super patient with everyone! Marketplace was a bit crowded and sellers pushy, but I got some cool tea glasses. Would go again, but maybe with friends next time.Tomasz

Ourika Valley is just wow. Went with my partner, we both loved hiking up to the waterfall. Our guide, Youssef, shared a bunch of fun facts about Berber culture that I never knew. The weather was HOT but river breeze helped. Had a mint tea break by the water, super relaxing. If you like nature and a bit of adventure, totally recommend.

We loved the scenery and the hike, especially my daughter who tried to climb every rock she saw! The drive up felt a bit long and twisty, and our driver stopped for a 'photo op' at a place that was more shop than view… but still, worth it. The guide, Khalid, was patient with our slow pace. Waterfall was BUSY. If you can, go earlier in the day.
