About this activity
On this one day trip you will discover some of the most beautiful sites of the Middle Atlas. You will be picked up from your hotel at 8am. The 3-hour journey to the Ouzoud falls will involve driving through boisterous traditional Moroccan towns, sleepy rural villages, and across hills and forests with lush landscapes.
The Ouzoud falls are about 110 meters in height which makes them the highest waterfalls in North Africa.The top of the waterfall offers an astonishing view and you will note there are walking paths all over the site. You could enjoy a walk along the river or the waterfall’s edge and be rewarded by beautiful, mesmerising sights and native wildlife. “Magot” monkeys roam the trees and water. They are not completely wild creatures and are used to humans being around – but it is always better to watch them from a distance.
In the late afternoon we will set off on our return journey to Marrakech and you will be dropped at your hotel. Before we do this, there is time for you to also try a traditional Moroccan dish and sip a glass of mint tea at a local restaurant.

We loved it! It was very nice. The walk to the falls was a little bit heavy and exhausting. The view made it all worth it. Guide was very sweet and helpful.
The guide is not optional and you get to know it's approx €5 (rather than €3) right before going back Marrakesh. The waterfalls are worthy and deserve a one day trip. However, the driver leaves you on the road in the middle of nowhere far apart from the waterfalls (you can't see them) and introduces you to someone who will show them to you. You have no option, but to follow him, and no price is mentioned at any point. Even if you want to make it on your own, only the guide knows how to make it to the meeting point. Right before going back to Marrakesh, you are requested to pay 50 dirhams pp. (approx 5€). Neither the driver nor the guide accept any liability for the description enclosed in the ticket you get from Viator or their website.
A long drive, but worth it! The driver was pleasant, the guide we met at Ouzoud was simply amazing! The recommendation on this purchase was a tip of 3 Euros per person, our guide was worth substantially more! He was very informative and attentive. Our group had people who spoke French, Spanish and English. He manged to give us all personal attention and explain everything in our language. Bit of advice, walk with cash no credit cards and you will need coins to pay to use the toilets.
the driver didnt speak English and when you get at the waterfall a local guide approach you and starts to take you around but to be honest there is no need for it...you can do it yourself for free. the guide forced us to have lunch to a specific restaurant more expensive than others but we decided to chose a different one and he got quiet upset about it and we didnt want to pay him as we didnt required his service and we got rushed through the all things. overall i suggest to get there, visit your own no guide as it is easy to follow the path in the forest and have lunch where you feel like it.
The trip was really nice, I highly recommend it. On arrival there is a guide waiting who will guide you for circa 30 Dh you should really take it, worth it and through journey there are few paid activities, like little boat voyage under waterfalls we politely refused and went around taking pictures, stayed dry, having better spots for nice photos Then he will take you to a restaurant next to waterfalls, food looked well, but 100Dh is not really cheap for local price conditions. Again we refused, because we didnt know and took our own lunch with us. If you dont mind spending little more money during the trip or have no troubles with saying no thank you. You will have truly wonderful time. :-
The tour here is only for the bus - you will be paying the tour guide at the falls 35 dirhams and he will give you a fabulous tour but there is no point paying the extra on here as you don't get anything but a mini bus taxi provided anyway!
The highlight of our trip! Would absolutely recommend doing whilst visiting Marrakech.
