1.From Marrakech: Ouzoud Waterfalls Guided Hike and Boat Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 33,630 reviews · 10 - 11 hours · from $17Our pick

Travel from Marrakech to Ouzoud with hotel pickup, a local guide, scenic viewpoints, an argan oil cooperative, a moderate hike, and a short boat ride beneath the 110-meter falls. Guides such as Youssef, Hachimi, and Mohamed Boufarma are praised for patient explanations and photo help. Lunch costs about €10 to €12 extra.

“Mohamed Boufarma was an amazing and knowledgable guide. We found it so impressive that he was switching between English, French, Italian and Arabic to explain the history of the falls. We got picked up from our resort around 8:45, it was a 3/ 3 and a half hour coach journey with a brief stop off at a restaurant for a toilet break / snacks. When we arrived, we learnt how Argon oil was made, got to try some mint tea, and had plenty of photo opportunities (Mohamed was a great photographer). We ended the trip with a boat ride towards the waterfall and a meal overlooking the beautiful view. 10/10…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 3,737 reviews · 7 hours · from $12

“Brilliant way to experience the the Ourika Valley from Marrakech. Transportation was well organised from an easy to find location. Brahim the guide was excellent, very accommodating and always eager to make sure everyone was okay and enjoying themselves. The food served at the riverside cafe was very tasty, so we’d suggest including the add-on lunch to your booking. The hike to the waterfalls was great as well. We’d recommend wearing relatively sturdy shoes as the terrain is quite rocky.”

8.Day Trip To Ouzoud Waterfalls (Guide Hike & Boat are options)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 787 reviews · from $18Top rated

Escape Marrakech for a 10-hour group trip to Ouzoud Waterfalls, where 110-meter cascades plunge through the Atlas Mountain region. Air-conditioned transport, pickup, and drop-off are included. You can add a local guide for €3 or a short boat ride for €2. Guides may include Samir, Mustafa, Mohamed, Ali, or Hicham Momi.

“Un panorama exceptionnel qui se mérite : 2h30 de route allée, idem au retour avec un mini bus où la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas avec la chaleur. Bien mettre une tenue confortable et des chaussures de marche, après le trajet il faudra marcher une petite heure dans un chemin escarpé. Pas de baignade à l'arrivée mais une vue à couper le souffle, une balade en radeau rafraîchissante et la compagnie des singes en remontant.”
