Guide was very friendly, the traditional food and mint tea was lovely and the setting was stunning in the argan factory, the tour here was informative and they had some stunning products on offer.
Paradise Valley itself is very pretty, however the walk into the valley is hard going and not suitable for people with mobility or health issues. Once at the pools be extremely careful as the layer of algae on the rocks is very slippery and on our visit numerous people fell over and luckily no one was hurt. It was extremely busy and due to this the water colour is not the stunning blue featured in the photos but a murkey brown due to the sediment being moved around the bottom of the pool.
Remember that this is a natural pool so there are fish in the water which will swim around you and have a nibble on your toes.
My children throughly enjoyed this experience and had an amazing time
Response from Host, Jul 2026

Walking to and from the pools was quite a hike, especially when it was so hot, however, it was a beautiful walk and our guide pointed out lots of things for us to look at. The pools themselves were beautiful to look at but extremely difficult to navigate due to the fact that the rocks on the sides of them were horrendously slippy. It was quite busy when we were there and people were slipping and falling quite a bit. Once you were in it also seemed extremely difficult to get back out because of the rocks. I'm glad we went to see the pools but was disappointed we didn't feel it was safe enough for us to swim without landing on our backs! Our guide was lovely, very respectful and attentive and made sure we all knew what we were doing and tried his best to show us how to navigate the pools. He really could not have done more for us.
Response from Host, Jul 2026

Friendly tour operator but a little light on any factual conversation. Seatbelts in minibuses did not work (Seems standard for all vehicles in this country). None of the tours are special and Morocco is a country strewn with a lot of litter which is unpleasant. The Valley was okay. Not much of paradise there though.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your comments about our friendly team and your honest opinion about the experience. We are sorry that some aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations.
We take note of your remarks regarding the information provided, the transport, and the overall experience. We always aim to offer our guests a safe, enjoyable, and authentic way to discover the beauty of the region.

Lisa_S, May 2026
Amazing day out so much value for money. Stopped off at bitonic gardens for breakfast. The scenery is amazing & the natural pools stunning. I would say its not suitable for anyone with mobility issues, as a lot of steps & uneven ground
Our guide Mohamed & driver Nabil were Fantastic
Response from Host, Jul 2026

Great experience and such good value for money. Lovely botanical garden visited on the way with tea provided. We did a half day. Pick up etc all on time. Friendly and chatty guide who was clearly proud of his home area. Would highly recommend. Just make sure you take cash for toilets, refreshments etc as it’s remote.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for your kind review! We're glad you enjoyed the trip and your guide, and we appreciate the helpful tip about bringing cash.
Stuart_S, Apr 2026
Pick up on time, a few stops before reaching paradise valley. It is a bit of a walk down and up a dirt path so recommended to wear training shoes. Driver and tour guide were great. To be honest it wasn’t like the pictures lots of rubbish lying around including in the small lagoon for swimming in… worth going for the trek rather than the swim..
Response from Host, Apr 2026
thank you very much

We had a Great day out. Even got to see the goats in the trees but you need to go early. Excellent value for money.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Glad you had a great day out—those goats in the trees are definitely a highlight! Thanks for the tip about going early

Wear trainers or climbing boots. Carry water. Not as pretty as I thought it would be. Wouldn't do it again
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback. Please note that it had rained the day before your trip, which is why the water was not as blue and clear as usual.
Sneha_P, Apr 2026
Pick was 45 min late, drive to valley felt like shopping trip. Felt like we are children on school trip who were managed all the time- would have preferred to drop at the valley with instructions and everyone walks with their own space.
Place itself is so busy and touristy but that is up to individual to decide for themselves.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry you felt this way about the experience.
However, we would like to clarify that the mountain area can be dangerous in some places, and we are responsible for the safety and security of all our guests. While some visitors may be very sporty and independent, others may need assistance and guidance along the way. For this reason, we always stay together to ensure everyone’s safety.
We appreciate your understanding and thank you again for your review.

Idris our guide was fantastic. The trip was fantastic provided you are very fit. I dont think that the trip details explain sufficiently that if you are older or have any worries about doing this trip at all, then dont do it. We parked at the top of the valley´(we incorrectly assumed that we would be walking along it from the valley bottom, and there are many steps, ledges, uneven paths and some very rock areas/ledges to traverse and stepping stones across rivulets and quite high stepped areas to get up and down if you were short like myself. My husband, and myself to a certain degree, whilst not having mobility issues as such really struggled getting back up to the top from the valley floor. Idris the guide was a star helping him all the way. Having said that the trip and scenery was great and we felt a great achievement having done it.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad Idris made your trip memorable. We appreciate your note on the difficulty—safety and clarity are important to us. Congrats on completing the hike!

Having gone on many Viator tours around the world, we expected the same high standards here. We never found out our guides name as he didn't introduce himself to us individually or to the group.
We passed many interesting buildings, sites, historic and modern. None of this was pointed out nor was a potted history of Morocco, Agadir, the Paradise Valley and the amazing geology of the area. The guide literally reconfirmed our 3 stops. These were breakfast( flat bread and 3 dips) at a women's cooperative- he managed to combine the afternoon element into the morning one. The Botanical gardens were a small herb garden at the cooperative.
The car park at the Paradise Valley was full of minibuses, which meant that they had discharged hordes of tourists to tramp the path to the hidden Valley where standing room is difficult, let alone finding somewhere clean to sit for the 40 minutes we were left there. Who knows what peak season is like as we were there in Winter.
Our 'guide', I'll use that term loosely, was more interested in talking to his driver and the various local people he knew at each stop. I dared to interrupt his conversation about the magnificent fossils for sale at a stop, which was shut down immediately.
I hope Viator addresses some training here so that their guides here in Agadir have some basic touristic information to impart to its customers. A taxi driver could have given us the same experience and that's not what you expect from a Viator tour.

Nabil collected us promptly at our hotel for this relaxing excursion to Paradise Valley.
Nice stop at a Berber Village for traditional breakfast.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you very much for your good review
Victoria_C, Feb 2026
Did what it said on the tin. Berber breakfast (just bread and dips with mint tea but tasty enough), botanic garden small and part of cafe and shop where you can buy local argan and honey products. Stop for photo of 'oasis'. About 30 min walk down to valley, lovely refreshing dip in cool fresh water holes. Only had 45 mins, would have enjoyed at least an hour. Driver kindly dropped us to Aourir so we could catch local bus to Tagazhout for the afternoon. Very good value for £12 per person.

Unfortunately this was really rushed and the driver was driving fast and constantly overtaking, which didn’t give you time to enjoy the scenery or feel safe. Paradise valley was very busy and a bit of a trek.

Disappointing. First of all, an hour before the tour I received a text saying that I was not going to be picked up at my hotel as I had booked (instead walking 15 minutes away) and that I would be picked up 45 minutes later than I had booked. Back and forth text negotiating led to an agreement to be picked up at my hotel 30 minutes later than booked (no problem) but then I received a phone call wondering why I wasn’t at the original place they wanted me to be at, not my hotel. . Not well organized. There was no guided part of this tour except by the friendly, knowledgeable French/English speaking woman at the argan and honey facility. She was good. And I thought that the complimentary snack there (bread; honey, argan butter, olive oil; mint tea) was good. Our guide spoke very little the whole tour and when he did speak English it was not at guide level quality. Paradise Valley itself was not at all what I expected: it was a mule-train of visitors walking along a sometimes-difficult narrow trail (I’d hate to do this on the rain or to do it with any mobility issues!), souvenir stands in multiple parts of the trail, and then the pools themselves are overrun with people. Not at all the idyllic nature trip I imagined. That’s not the fault of the guide so my rating isn’t based on that.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for your review and for taking the time to share your experience with us. We truly appreciate your feedback.
We would like to kindly clarify two points mentioned in your review.
First, regarding the pickup location: your riad is located inside Tamraght, where some streets are very narrow and unfortunately not accessible by car. For this reason, we initially asked to meet you in front of a very well-known restaurant close to your accommodation, approximately a 5-minute walk away and not 15 munites
Second, regarding Paradise Valley: this excursion is one of the most popular trips in the Agadir region, especially when there is a lot of water, and it is highly recommended by many travelers. As you can see from our reviews, many guests really enjoy the experience. That said, we understand that expectations can differ, and during busy periods the area can be crowded, which is beyond our control.
Concerning the guide, we would also like to note that our guide Rachid has received many positive reviews from previous clients, especially regarding his English-speaking skills. Nevertheless, we respect your personal experience and take your feedback seriously.
We truly respect your opinion and appreciate your honesty. Your comments help us improve our service, and we hope to have the opportunity to offer you a better experience in the future.
Kind regards,
The Team
Ismail_G, Feb 2026
It was a good experience. There are not much to do in Agadir, so I definitely recommend this trip. Special Thanks for our guide Rachid.

I really enjoyed this excursion and Nabil was professional but also relaxed, helpful and a good/careful driver. The botanical gardens were interesting and no sales talk. The water was lovely and I even enjoyed a jump off the cliff into the deep pool which was fun, especially with the crowd cheering everyone on. I was surprised the price was so low for the excursion.

They picked and dropped us on time. Nabil was very responsible and supportive throughout the trip. He made sure everyone was comfortable and offered multiple stops for breaks and toilet etc. He also stopped for people who were slow hikers. It was a brilliant experience. I highly recommend this to anyone who is in Agadir/taghazout and wants to go to Paradise valley
