Ouzoud Waterfalls Adventure Day Trip
Overview
The tallest waterfalls in North Africa drop through a red gorge some three hours east of Marrakech, tiered and loud and ringed by olive terraces and old stone mills. Guests walk down to the plunge pools, take a boat out towards the spray where rainbows hang in the mist, and share the paths with the gorge's resident Barbary macaques. Lunch on a terrace above the water and a visit to a village argan cooperative round out the day before the drive back.

- Boat ride to the foot of the cascade, included
- Guided descent through olive groves and old grain mills
- Wild Barbary macaques along the gorge paths
