Stop whatever you are doing now and BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE. We had the absolute very best time when we took part in this experience. We were picked up at our hotel by Mazi and he was instantly warm, welcoming and friendly.
We felt like he was a long lost friend that had put us instantly at ease. We drove up into the Atlas Mountains for ziplining and it was absolutely stunning. The drive to the area is not too far and is really pretty.
At the location (Terres d'Amanar) there are a few decent sized zips and then 2 bridges to cross that are really fun. Our ziplining guides were Rascid and Mohammed and WOW were they great. Super personable and really fun to get to know. They were engaging and ensured we had a great time all while being safe. Highly recommended.
Following the ziplining we made our drive up deep into the mountains where we met our hiking guide, Mohammed. He was very nice and kept the hike at a manageable pace up to the waterfall and then to his home for a phenomenal homecooked meal. The views are stunning and it is so hard to put into words how amazing this is. I had tears in my eyes as we descended back into town because it was ending.
One note about the waterfall hike: It may look super easy but it has a rapid ascent and you will get winded. So prepare yourself, but it is so worth it. There are some coffee and juice vendors up near the waterfall so you will want some cash for them. Also, bring cash for gratuities. Your Berber guide and cook as well as your driver will be super appreciative.
To wrap up, you will not regret this and I cannot recommend it enough.
