A truly magical day 🫶🏼 - I went on this excursion to the Ourika Valley with my cousin and it was an absolutely amazing day 🌿
The Anima Garden was splendid, probably the most beautiful garden out of the 3 I could visit in Marrakech.
Stopping at the 100% women’s agricultural cooperative with argan oil was also exciting: the women were adorable and we learned a lot about making oil.
The hike to the Setti Fatma waterfalls was superb, there were not too many people at this time in October. The local guide (optional) took us higher (it was sporty haha) to discover several waterfalls and enjoy breathtaking scenery, away from the crowds. I really recommend taking it!
It’s a bit sporty uphill, so maybe not ideal for everyone, but the view is well worth it.
The meal by the water, on the small colorful pouffes, was magical.
And a big thank you to Osama, who took care of us from start to finish: punctual, funny and very attentive. The transport was perfect, with no false ratings. What a laugh! 😂
A complete, authentic and unforgettable experience, which I recommend 100% 💚

Mum and daughter day trip - Great day exploring Berber culture (including a stop for pottery making and learning about argan oil), beautiful gardens and views of the Atlas Mountains. Lunch in the Ourika valley was a highlight. Lovely tour, fabulous tour guide, punctual and nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend!

Beautiful place and nice excursion with some points to improve - The Ourika Valley is a superb place, ideal visit at this time, the driver was friendly and pleasant but not driven at all adapted, and that scared us (even if it is controlled)...The second downside concerns the organizer's description which is not very clear since we thought we had a guide on site as indicated in the description and it was necessary to pay an extra 300 dirham for a guide once there (which were subsequently reimbursed us asking if it was normal)... The guide in question was great!
The anima garden is very beautiful and very green but the artistic aspect remains a bit anecdotal...
