The experience

About this trip

Ouzoud is a waterfall that drops about a hundred metres over a red cliff into a green pool, with a second and third tier behind it. Barbary macaques live in the olive groves around the top, and they are used to people.

This runs as a private tour, so it is your own vehicle and your own driver rather than a group. Day one goes through Marrakech and up into the Atlas, with lunch in the village above the falls. You walk down the stairs past the cafes to the pool, and there are boats if you want to get close to the spray.

After sunset we drive on to Lake Bin El Ouidane, where you spend the night. Day two is the lake and the return, at your pace rather than a timetable.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a private tour?

Yes. You get your own vehicle and your own driver, and the days run at your pace rather than a group timetable.

How big are the falls?

About a hundred metres, in tiers, into a green pool at the bottom. There are boats on the pool if you want to get nearer.

Will we see the monkeys?

Usually. Barbary macaques live in the olive groves around the top of the falls and are used to visitors. Do not feed them.

Is there much walking?

There are stairs down to the pool and back up. Nothing long, but it is stepped and can be damp.

Are meals included?

Breakfast is. Lunches and the evening meal are not.

Where do we stay?

At Lake Bin El Ouidane, roughly an hour from the falls.
