Recommended - Today's activity was really cool, but what made it even cooler was thanks to Mouhsine! This guy is truly humble and engaging in his work and really engages you! Compliments! Perhaps the only fault was the minibus driver... some overtaking was very dangerous. However, the rating remains 5/5 thanks

very good - It was a unique experience. The guide was super attentive, explained everything to us, very close, kind, friendly. He bothered to take a lot of photos and videos of us. I would repeat the destination many times and especially if we had the same guide. By the way, he explained everything to us in Spanish since there were several groups, with different languages.

Great day - Excellent trip, with a fun bus group and the tours split at the waterfalls into language groups. Make sure to have shoes with good grip for the trek down and possibly a rain coat if you do the boat ride (more of a quick raft float) as they go almost directly into the waterfall. Beautiful area and informative guide. An excellent day!

VERY GOOD, PUNCTUAL AND HELPFUL - They picked us up on time at our hotel, the bus is very comfortable and clean, they make a stop to stretch their legs and go to the bathroom at a Gas Station where there are more tourists going on the same excursion.
The driver is friendly and helpful. The one way trip is 3 hours but since the bus is comfortable there is no problem. When you get off the bus there is a guide who is a friend of the driver, I suppose, who for €3 will take you on a tour of the waterfalls, I recommend taking it because if not you can get lost along the path. It is recommended to wear closed shoes. When the waterfall tour ends, they take you to a restaurant that they consider to be the best, for me it was nothing more, the food is good but nothing out of this world.
Communication is excellent through WhatsApp or email, they respond very quickly.

GOOD - A big thank you to our driver Driss and our guide Harmid Tarzan! They were friendly and always had the answers to our questions (even more!). Ouzoud is an incredible discovery (although we thought it would be the tourist spot too many). The journey is very beautiful (also long) whether in the morning or in the evening at sunset. THANKS !
