Organizing was smooth and the trip beautiful. The only weaker point is that we weren’t that excited about the camel ride.”

Ride from Marrakech into the Atlas foothills, visit a Berber home and women’s argan oil cooperative, then hike with a local guide to Setti Fatma’s waterfalls. Expect a moderate, rocky walk, a riverside lunch if selected, and guides such as Amine, Wissal, Belhadj, or Lahcen. Shared groups are social, while private tours allow more time for photos.

“We had an amazing day. Amine was our private guide. From start to finish it was a fabulous day, with incredible views and experiences. He was very knowledgeable and told us about the Berber heritage. The Argon Oil cooperative was fabulous. Our guide up to the waterfall was great and didn’t rush us at all. The views were stunning. Lunch down by the river was just perfect. All in all a great day. I would highly recommend. Personally for us it was worth paying a little more to have a private tour, rather than a larger group as it meant we were able to take time, taking photos etc. Thank…”
