“Wow, what a wonderful trip! Badr was an exceptional host and paid great attention to all of us making sure we were all happy and comfortable. It’s really worth booking this itinerary for beautiful walks up to the waterfall (take sturdy shoes!) - we also had a gorgeous stop at the women’s cooperative where they hosted us with tea and their homemade amlou and honey. Buy your argan oil here! Our hiking host was also wonderful. Lunch is excellent and good value too, the most beautiful setting after our hike. A day perfectly spent - thank you so much Badr!”
