    I have joined a private tour to Ourika valley during our first family holidays in Marrakech and the whole experience was just perfect. Ourika is really very calm and the settings by the river are very sublime. We had a good tajine for lunch and our driver was very nice. I'd definitely recommend this travel agency.

    Magnifique paysage Nous avons été très satisfaite de la journée passée à Ourika. Hamid, a été un chauffeur chaleureux accueillant et surtout bienveillant. La visite d’Ourika nous a été faite par Souleyman qui a été notre guide à la hauteur de nos espérances. Des professionnels très compétents, je recommande. Nadia

    Très joli sortie à la fraîche et au vert hors de la touffeur de Marrakech. Mais il faut absolument que le prestataire prévienne à la resa que ce n’est pas une promenade de santé mais plutôt du crapahuter et parfois de l’escalade... avec précipice à la clé...on avait une dame de plus de 70 ans qui était tétanisée à plusieurs reprises

    We had a wonderful travel thanks to the best driver Hamid and the lovely people who showed us around their area and the berber women who cooked an amazing lunch for us in their house! The nature of ourika valley is very pretty too - green (unlike Marrakech), fresh and clear rivers and waterfalls coming from the close by atlas mountains which we also climbed a little bit to have a nice view on the waterfalls. Unfortunately the place is really crowded by local moroccans who like to take a swim over there or just spend their day at the beautiful valley. Because of that it can get a bit loud, especially on the weekends they told us. However, it still has been a 5 star experience for us because those insights like how the berber people still live nowadays, to learn about their history, the history about the region and the atlas mountains in general and to be accompanied by such a great person like Hamid was just unique. Thank you so much!

    The day-trip was fun and fairly interesting, but I think it needs a bit more thought. We were lucky that our driver was very enthusiastic and told us about all sorts of things on the way. He spoke excellent french, but not very good english, so it likely would have been an entirely different experience if you can’t speak to him in french. The drive was nice and scenic. The stop at the Women’s co-operative is basically a quick shopping opportunity - we gained very little from that stop and the lady who gave us the rehearsed speech turned quite nasty once we said that something there was too expensive for us to buy. The stop at the Berber house was good, a local Berber showed us around and was very nice. We then reached the town and walked up to the waterfalls. We paid 200 for the guide, which is probably more than is fair. The guide didn’t really do much except take photos of us (which we did appreciate, to be fair) - he definitely wasn’t a talker. Waterfalls are nice enough, but the view of the mountains was the best part. Lunch afterwards was really good, nice setting by the river. Overall a good day, mainly just nice to be out of the city.

    The tour was very enjoyable, thanks to the amazing guide, Najib. He was very professional and shared many interesting insights into the Moroccan culture, with an emphasis on the Berber culture. The scenery was very beautiful, as was the hike to the water falls. We had lunch in the Ourika Valley by a river, and the authentic moroccoan tajine meal was delicious. There were a couple of stops along the way at local cooperatives selling argan oil (with a demonstration of the process the women use to make the oil); as well, as a creative craftsman that has a beautiful Berber jewellery and other products. Modifications were made throughout the day to make the day more worthwhile. Thank you Najib for sharing your knowledge and making the tour very worthwhile!

    Najib nous a récupéré au riad a 9h pour une journée découverte de la vallée d ourika. Trajet d une heure depuis Marrakech agrémenté de son savoir et du partage de sa culture et de l histoire marocaine et berbère. Arrêt dans une poterie, une coopérative d huile d argan, visite d une maison berbère toujours avec de bonnes explications et sans obligation d achat. Le déjeuner les pieds dans l eau était un régal tant au niveau du lieu et de l insolite qu au niveau du goût.la rando pour se rendre aux cascades est un peu sportive mais faisable et le lieu vaut la peine.les paysages sont très jolis,une très belle journée conviviale et agréable grâce a Najib

    il faut mieux aller plus loin ds les montagnes, la vallee de l ourika c est juste pour ce mettre les pieds ds l eau, rien d interresant

    Agence sérieuse et minibus confortable. Les petits villages en bord de route sont dépaysants et envoûtants, dommage qu'il n'y ai pas plus d'arrêts sur le chemin. L'arrêt dromadaire (en bord de route) et fabrique d'huile d'argan sont fait pour nous faire sortir le porte-monnaie ;). L'ascension et les paysages sont jolis et typiques mais nous avons été tout de même un peu déçus (prévoir des chaussures adéquates). Nous nous attendions à autre chose. Toujours cette sensation d'être un peu pressé par le guide.. ! La belle surprise de la journée fût le déjeuner les pieds dans l'eau.
