Ouzoud Excursions
Hassan is one of the four authors of this site, with Hassan, Hamid, Mohammed and Saïd, all members of the Ouzoud Excursions team. Each of them signs the pages of the subject he follows, so that you know who wrote what you are reading.
What he writes about
He wrote our Ouzoud Waterfalls guide, the reference page of the site: where the falls are, how to get there from Marrakech, the walk down, the boat ride, the Barbary macaques, the seasons and what to bring. He also wrote our page on the tour with a local guide, which explains what a guide does on the paths of both banks and when it is worth it.
How his pages are checked
Facts about the Ouzoud Waterfalls that cannot be seen on the day, such as the height of the falls, the altitude, the distance from Marrakech or the status of the Barbary macaques, come from published sources, which our Ouzoud guide lists at the end. When a detail depends on someone else, such as the boatmen at the foot of the falls or a restaurant, the page says so instead of guessing. Our business rules (private vehicle, 50% deposit, free cancellation up to 48 hours) are the same on every page and are set out in our booking terms.
