Not worth it!

xuandieun, Mar 2026

The private tour was okay but for the price of this private tour, it wasn’t really worth it. I thought we would get a more comfortable small car but the driver came with a big 8-seater van for the two of us. Since it was “private”, I thought we got to dictate where we went but we had to still go to a traditional home and two cooperatives, taking time away from the mountain hike. The mountain guide was completely unnecessary. We could easily have done the hike on our own, especially the part we covered on this tour. There were a ton of people on the hike so it wasn’t like you would get lost. Also, the guide did not take us up to the 7 water falls, just the first big water fall about 40 min up, because there wasn’t enough time. Another weird thing was the tour guide seemed upset when we wanted to eat at a different restaurant more upstream on the riverside as it wasn’t so busy with guests from all the different tours. Overall, I don’t recommend this. Just buy a ride up to Setti Fatma and explore on your own for a small fraction of this private tour. Unless of course you like seeing a traditional home and cooperatives.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. Our private tours are designed to provide a comfortable and safe journey, which is why we usually use spacious vehicles, even for small groups. The visit to a traditional home and local cooperatives is part of the cultural experience we offer to our guests, but we understand that some travelers may prefer to spend more time hiking. Regarding the mountain guide, local guides are included to ensure safety and to support the local community. We are sorry if you felt this was unnecessary during your visit. We truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our services for future guests.

Unforgettable day

We had an amazing experience on our trip to the Ourika Valley with Youssef as our guide. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the area. Thanks to him, we were able to reach the higher waterfalls – something we definitely wouldn’t have managed on a regular group tour. The views from up there were absolutely breathtaking and well worth the extra effort. Youssef made sure we were safe and comfortable every step of the way. Highly recommended if you want a more authentic and memorable experience!

we loved the waterfall and the lunch near to the river

It’s a wonderful experience because of we loved the waterfall and the lunch near to the river. I and my boyfriend recommend it. The Berbèr People is a very business oriented. They are a very good sellers. Making a private tour we took our time. Yassin has been very professional and helpful driver. Thank you very much..
