What to expect

Get picked up from your hotel in Marrakech and drive into the foothills of the High Atlas Mountains which rise up from the plains. Then, enter a green, agricultural valley with a thriving traditional culture. Make your first stop of the day at a place where local Berber women extract precious argan oil from the kernels of the argan tree.Next, head to the village of Setti Fatma, which is your starting point for a 1.5-hour hike to the Siti Fatma Waterfalls. You will follow a steep trail across a series of narrow bridges to 7 picturesque cascades. While at the waterfalls, and throughout the tour, take advantage of your day with a local trekking guide to set your own pace, with plenty of time to take breaks or ask questions. After the hike, you can cool off with a drink and continue to a local family home to have an optional classic Berber meal of tajine, salad, and fresh fruits. At around 5.00pm, you will return to Marrakech and dropped off back at your hotel.

Anfang war etwas langwierig.Stop am Aussichtspunkt(Aussicht traumhaft),aber viele Verkäufer mit Armbändern die man 2x wegschicken muss.Dann Berberhaus.Guter Tee,netter Führer aber eigentlich Teppichverkauf.Dann Fußweg zur Frauenkooperative die Arganöl herstellen.Guter Tee und Honig, Amlou uArganöl mit Brot.Die Damen alle sehr freundlich,zuvorkommend.Wissen alles über ihr Öl und Wirkung versch.Zutaten. Hier fühlt man sich nicht gedrängt zu kaufen.Dann Stop im Restaurant, dann Berge.Feste Schuhe.

It should have been made much clearer how difficult the walk up to the waterfalls were.

This was an excellent tour however more information is required on booking. The walk to the waterfall was difficult and steep. The correct footwear is required and no fear of heights. The tour also stopped at too many local Traders adding unnecessary time.

My friend and I are in our 60s and we enjoyed this trip as great value for money and we’re very happy with our walking guide at the cascades. Jamal helped us when we needed a hand walking up the steep areas and when walking back down from the cascades again. There are no health and safety barriers so people need to know it is a steep climb and slippery descent in areas and if you have vertigo or impeded movement it is not the trip for you.

De wandeling us veel zwaarder dan omschreven en heeft aangepasr schoeisel nodig. Ik was op slippers: levensgevaarlijk! Best omschrijving van de activiteit finetunen. Mooie wandeling wel, superattente gids.

Duidelijke omschrikving van de wandeltocht is gewenst en dat je goed stevig hiking schoeisel nodig hebt. Als je een engelse excursie aanbiedt moet die ook engels zijn. Het was 99% franstalig gericht

Onze chauffeur Ayoup die ons ophaalde was heel vriendelijk heeft alles prima uitgelegd en nam zijn tijd na dat onze chauffeur ons had overgedragen aan een andere meneer die ons heeft begeleid naar de bergen was op het eerste indruk best vriendelijk maar na dat alles was afgelopen vroeg meneer schaamteloos om geld waar ik op schrok en ik meneer aansprak of hij zich niet schaamde om dat zomaar te vragen dat is zeker een min punt !!

Het is een prachtige excursie die het geld méér dan waard is. Het is méér een stevige hike ipv wandeltocht. Voor mensen slecht ter been is het niet te doen. Doordat we een flinke club oudere bij ons hadden was de rest van de groep genoodzaakt om hen mee omhooggevallen te trekken en over stenen heen te tillen omdat we anders voor zonsondergang niet terug waren geweest. Prachtige omgeving maar nogmaals, wees goed mobiel.

Hotel - Tui Blue Rui Tikida Gardens was amazing. Hotel was very clean, staff super friendly and helpful and food was yummy and plentiful. There was entertainment on every night if you wanted to go along to the bar or you could chill be the pool in the evenings. Hotel was very peaceful and relaxing , lots of outdoor activities every day also in hotel grounds like yoga, well-being classes, badminton, tennis , bowls etc .. they have a spa on site also with a hairdresser, gym and indoor pool.

We were picked up late & then were took to wait on a dodgy street, then had to change cars & wait longer. We were worried waiting for 20mins, where random people looked in and opened the door. Turns out we were just waiting for another pair but were not told this so were left very worried. But, ourguide for the hike was fantastic. The hike to the waterfalls was lovely. We enjoyed the tours of the factory & berber house. Lunch was nice but we were unhappy with lunch essentially being compulsory.

Amazing value for money! Would recommend to anyone wanting a reasonably priced day out of the city. Our guide Abdul was so friendly, funny and attentive the whole day, taking extra care with my mum who wasn’t the most confident hiker and made sure she was supportive the whole way up and down! Loved the whole trip and would even do it again

Well everything was good the only issue was the food place were you recommend the Resturant give us raw pink chicken and didn’t offer to change the food until we was going and demanded money from us at the end and they charge the local people normal prices and they charge us the visitors double the normal price for the same food . Also the staff give a different menu with double the prices on for us visiting.

Excursion de 9h au lieu de 6h, déjeuner obligatoire dans un restaurant. Authenticité de la maison berbère douteuse. Guides très sympathiques très arrangeant, belle vallée de l'ourika et belles cascades mais beaucoup trop de monde sur le chemin.

Transport/pick up was not the best and vehicle was not air-conditioned in 35 ° heat ..over an hour driving around Marrakech picking up 3 couples. Driver was erratic..trip through the valley was super but would have been good to stop for some photo opportunities on the way and less time at the argan co-operative which was over-priced. Steep climb to the waterfalls over rockface ..not suitable for those less able. Worth seeing . Views are awesome.
