Shared trip : Day trip to Ourika Valley Atlas Mountains

Marrakech was exciting but loud and hectic, so I needed a break to just breathe and listen to nature. Nourddin picked me up early, and as we drove away from the city, the red buildings slowly gave way to green fields and quiet mountain air. We stopped briefly at a small argan oil cooperative, where women patiently crushed nuts by hand. The smell of toasted almonds was comforting — a beautiful reminder of tradition and hard work. Our guide Younes led us on a lovely hike to the Setti Fatma waterfalls. The path followed streams and rocks, with cool water to cross and even a curious monkey watching us. I slipped on a stone and laughed — a light moment that made the walk even more memorable. Lunch by the river was simple but delicious: chicken tagine, fresh bread, olives, and sweet mint tea. Sitting there with my feet near the water, time seemed to slow down. Returning to Marrakech felt different — calmer and softer. This day trip to the Ourika Valley from Marrakech was exactly the peaceful escape I needed.

Amin was excellent. early hotel pickup. It was impressive that you were able to communicate with everyone in our group in a language they could understand. He was a really vivacious guide who made sure that everyone was taken care of. made the trip enjoyable by teaching us a lot about history. Overall, it was a fantastic trip that was well worth the money.

Pathetic and regrettable excursion. They changed the exit site. They changed the departure time to 1 hour later. They stopped five times on the way to get us to buy imbecilities we didn't want. Half of what we had to do was not done for lack of time. The guide charged us for a service that came included. We stop for lunch at a lousy crowded restaurant, but with commission for the company. I had the food paid for and they charged me again. Everything was done fast and running.... NUNCA MAS
