Thanks to Hajar, Mouradi, and Jamal for organizing this incredible day discovering a Berber house, a women's cooperative producing a huge variety of argan oil products, and this hike in the heart of the mountains, which was just magnificent, rounded off with a great meal! It was magical, so thank you! I recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech!

What can I say... it was magical! Such a change of scenery—everything was beautiful. I highly recommend this excursion!! A tour of an argan oil cooperative, panoramic views, a roughly 1-hour hike to some waterfalls, with stunning colors, natural pools, the Berber village, and to top it all off, a three-course meal by the water—perfect! But above all, thanks to Samir, our driver, and Ayoub, our guide—without them, the excursion wouldn’t have happened. They were so attentive and always there for us! It’s Marseille, baby! 😄

Our tour was amazing from start to finish. Amina welcomed us in the morning and was the perfect tour guide, she ensured we all knew what was happening and answered any questions we had about the day. The drive was amazing and our tour guide for the hike was very helpful and gave us lots of information. We would highly recommend this tour.

We had a wonderful day to the Ourika falls. The tour was well organised with great communication from Saad organising our pick up from a rented appartment. Achraf our driver was patient and friendly and did amazingly given the amount of traffic closer to the falls. The additional stops at the pottery and argane cooperative were very interesting. The hike was well worth the stunning views and our guide took us on a beautiful quieter route back down where we even saw monkeys. Lunch by the river was a wonderful experience and well organised. All in all a great day out well worth the money and would definitely recommend.
