マラケシュ : オウリカの滝、アトラスマウンテン、ガイド＆リバーランチ

People trying to scam you while having a smile on their face got old really fast. 4 parts to this trip Pick up was fine and in time. Taken to the first stop with locals trying to sell you things (normal no problem) however these guys you encounter are so pushy and a simple no several times doesn’t work. Stop two these argon oil houses. They do and show you the bare minimum so they can justifiably sell you things. ( not very pushy they leave you be) The Hike. This was the best part of the whole trip and the only reason I’m leaving 3 stars. Guide was pretty nice. View was pretty nice considering the weather was nice. Only bad thing I’d say was every stop we took was between several shops again people starting to sell you things and stop you (little push but as long as you stay back they’ll leave you alone) Lastly was the resteraunt this was by far and I mean by far the worst part of the trip. When you do the hike you pass some pretty nice river side restaurants. The closer to the hiking area the nicer the restaurants, the guide took us to the worst and furthest restaurant, that could be overlooked, then we ordered the food took forever to arrive (30 min) fine whatever things happen but now we have a bad restaurant view and food thats taking 2-3 business days. Fine, then the food arrives and portions were small the options were extremely limited baring in mind you spend £15 extra at the time for the lunch (two small sausage skewer's some grilled chicken, 5 fries). Starter was a small mushroom omlette and the mousse was basically a squirt of whipped cream in your mouth. The drinks were not included you had to pay extra. The worst bit that almost made me lose my mind was the guys were playing the drums right behind my head while I’m eating and it sounded horrible then they insist on you paying them while your still eating I’ve got a fry half way in my mouth and you’re pressing me for money, this was disrespectful to me and my patience had left at this time. Wouldn’t normally care however all the tourist traps mixed with the pestering locals combined with significantly overpriced bad food was an overwhelming bad experience. All in all it seemed like the guide got good rates or a commission for taking us to the worst resteraunt at the bar combined with guiding us to places where people will pester us to buy things. Again the hike was amazing had they just provided that I’d be happy. If you enjoy hiking go and enjoy yourself find a different guide, and don’t pre pay for food just order at the restaurants as you see fit.

Nice to be in such a natural place

Great trip, Amin was a friendly and on time guide. Mustafá made sure we had plenty of stops on the hike.

Moused was very nice, welcoming and very good driver.

Amin was a great organizer with perfect communication

Amin was a great guide!! Great trip experience!

Had a great time up to the Atlas Mountains with Moncef! Had a lovely walk up to see the waterfalls and some great views. Then back down the mountain to have a beautiful lunch by the river! Scenic views you would never get at home! Thank you! Highly recommend this trip!

+1

The whole 6–8 hour experience, from hotel pick-up to drop-off, was seamless. Moncef was extremely helpful throughout and took great care of us. Everything was well organised, enjoyable, and great value for money. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful experience with Icham on this adventure! Also, our hiking guide made us feel confident, safe, and so well taken care of every step of the way.
