Ausflug zu den Ouzoud-Wasserfällen ab Marrakesch

Scam alert! The excursion was amazing, a truly beautiful natural scenery. Reasonably priced and fairly comfortable. There were a lot of options for food and drinks including vegan ones, I must say that going during low season made it much more enjoyable, Unfortunately, I had read about a scam that they do there and I found myself a near victim of it. All the tours start from a car park, our driver left us in the hands of this guide, who once the tour started and we were in the midst of the olive grove where he told us that we had to pay 30 mad/3€ per person on top of what we paid. He did not give us an option, and as we were walking my partner and I felt a bit uncomfortable with the idea. He said he was not part of the agency, when they stopped for 15 minutes in a cafè, we decided to leave. The guide was outraged, he did not give us any tips or information on how to get to the waterfalls, luckily though it’s pretty easy. Once we met him again he informed that he was actually part of the agency, that we did not have to pay him and to meet him up the waterfalls at 3:00 to go back home. My advice is: it is a straightforward path and it is way more fun to pick where you want to eat or drink instead of getting the usual tourists inflated prices that you would get with the guide. My partner and I had the best time!
