Traveler reviews
I demand a refund.
Hello, I didn't go on my excursion, I waited 1 hour with my children outside at 40 degrees. So that in the end a sleeping man tells me contact visitor…. What a disappointment…
Amazing waterfalls, boat ride and lunch.
A fantastic trip to see the waterfalls. You get to experience different views of the falls and it includes a boat ride that takes you close to the falls and you can have a pic taken there. The guide is great and helpful. The lunch was good and def worth it. I have gluten allergies and they cater for you. One thing to note that it isn’t a hike to see the waterfalls. There are about 600 steps that take you down - these are not steep. You need to climb those stairs back up. There are donkeys available to ferry people up. Our guide was amazing. One elderly lady fainted due to the heat and he was attentive and arranged a donkey ride for her.
Trip to Ouzoud Falls
We visited the Ouzoud Waterfalls as a group of 18 people—including both adults and kids—and honestly, the whole day was flawless. Ouzoud Waterfalls are absolutely stunning, and the views are incredible. The kids had a blast exploring, and everyone in our group loved it.Our guide was fantastic. They knew so much about the area, kept everyone engaged, and made sure no one felt left out.A huge shoutout to our driver, Yassine. We were pretty nervous about driving in a new country, but he instantly put us at ease. He was incredibly professional, safe, and calm, which let us actually relax and enjoy the ride.Booking with the agency was super easy too. Rabi was amazing—he messaged me before the trip and checked in throughout the day to make sure we were doing well. There were no hidden surprises or fees, just great communication and genuine care.If you are visiting Morocco and want a stress-free, memorable day trip, I highly recommend booking with Ando Travel Agency. Thank you so much to Yassine, Rabi, and the team for taking such good care of us! We will definitely be coming back to you for any future excursions.
Breath taking views - BUT the pace was too fast!
We had a fantastic day visiting the Ouzoud Waterfalls. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, and it’s a trip I’d highly recommend to anyone visiting Morocco. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the area, which really added to the experience. However, there was one downside. The pace of the walk was far too fast, and unfortunately the guide didn’t wait for the slower members of the group. Three of us struggled to keep up while the younger, fitter members quickly disappeared ahead. At several points we were left guessing which path to take because the group had moved so far ahead. That was frustrating and, at times, quite worrying. A little more consideration for people of different fitness levels would make this excursion much more enjoyable for everyone. Waiting occasionally to ensure the whole group stays together would make a huge difference. Despite that, this is an incredible day out and one I would still recommend. Just be prepared—the walk down is steep, and the climb back up is hard work. Make sure you wear sensible footwear with good grip and be realistic about your fitness level before booking. Overall, a beautiful experience with stunning views, but the guiding pace could definitely be improved.
I wouldn’t do this again....
I wouldn’t do this again. They take you to see a donkey that is tied to a tree with its back bleeding, bones sticking out and it can’t get to any water. It is surrounded by little streams but tied to the one tree where it can’t get any water The bus was 30mins late to pick us up. We stood outside another hotel (because they wouldn’t get us from our hotel) from 7:50am like asked and there was no update to say they were running late The tour itself is informative but there is so much time wasted standing around. It felt very unorganised and time wasted in very hot weather I would recommend not booking a tour, come and go when you please and make your own way round If you do go on this tour - there are lots of shops at the beginning - make sure that you pick up some water / drinks. It’s very hot and there won’t be any warning from your guide that you won’t be able to get a cold drink anywhere for the next 2 hours
