When my husband and I decided to go to Morocco for our honeymoon, we were so pleased to find Follow Your Heart Tours. They were immediately responsive to all of our needs, questions and even silly queries about the culture, dress, etc. Not only did they set us up with a tried and true team of fun and interesting local guides but they helped us with anything else we needed for our trip. The care, excitement and knowledge helped me feel confident as we explored this part of the world for the first time.
Our trip to the Ourika Valley was fantastic! Even though it’s a bit of a tourist location, our guides got us there before the large groups, and we hiked through the Atlas Mountains past the usual spots and up to the more hidden and secluded waterfalls. Lunch along the river afterwards was delicious, tagine, of course! We stopped to visit little villages, camels and shops as we liked, and it was a really lovely trip. This trip would be good for a variety of fitness levels. You can do a more flat hike up to the first waterfall and enjoy mint tea or orange juice. Or if you want, you can keep going as high as you like, which gets harder and more secluded.
I’d love to book a longer tour with this group! Our guide was Berber, and his family lives a nomadic life in the desert. Doing a trip to the desert on camel with him would be amazing!
