Description

Experience the beauty of the Ourika Valley up close on this scenic full-day tour from Marrakech and escape the hustle and bustle of the city for the day.

The Ourika Valley is the closest day trip to Marrakech, but it's not just its convenience that makes it special.

Drive to the Atlas Mountains, admiring the beautiful landscape of green meadows and authentic 16th and 17th century Berber villages.

If you visit on a Monday, you can even stop at a roadside souk. Admire the orchards, vegetable terraces and hillside villages.

Marvel at the work undertaken by the Berbers who lifted materials to build small houses on the mountainside and work the terraces in a hostile environment. Continue along the valley of palm trees, following the Ourika River.

Fruit trees, small hamlets, riverside restaurants and the summer homes of the wealthy will keep you busy. Go to Setti Fatma to feel the refreshing waters.

Feel the spray on your face as you cool off from the African heat, with Marrakech locals making it their favorite weekend.
