Day Trip itinerary
60 kilometers from Marrakech lies a hidden gem. Let’s discover the incredible landscape of the High Atlas with our Ourika valley day trip from Marrakech, where you will discover an area of contrasts, with sand-colored houses that blend with the greenish vegetation of the mountains. One of the best-preserved valleys, with gorges running through the rocky mountains, rivers, and crystal clear waterfalls.
With our English-speaking driver and escort, we can stroll through the bustling souks filled with local cuisine, handicrafts, and other goods. We will also have the option to visit a typical Berber house where they will tell us about their daily life, about the village, offer us tea, and show us their handmade products.
We will visit the highlights of Ourika, such as the traditional markets of the city, where day after day thousands of citizens gather to shop and share the smells and tastes of Marrakech.
This is one of the most famous excursions for those who want to visit the souks and customs of North Africa. Choose our tour and you won’t have to worry about the hassles of transport in Morocco.
Setti-Fatma will be our last stop, this small village with traditional charm has a splendid landscape of waterfalls. Here there will be free time for lunch (we recommend ordering a menu for two), photography, relaxation and, if you are a daring person, you can visit the wonderful Ourika waterfalls with a local guide.
Once in Ourika, you will have free time to explore the destination in your own way. The first waterfall can be visited easily, but the remaining six waterfalls require more physical preparation, perfect for the more adventurous. Come with comfortable shoes and clothes on our Ourika Valley Excursion to explore the jewel of Morocco.

Testimonials
Magic Ourika valley day trip from Marrakech
Our voyage begins in the morning. The first place we went was to a Berber home in the hills. Three generations together in peace. They had bread and tea with them as well as a warm well from them. Lovely people. We also went to the valley cooperative, where the famed oils and carpets are handcrafted. Women are the only ones that make these items. Then it's on to the waterfall trek and lunch by the river in the valley. Please make every effort to attend this event. It comes highly recommended.

Ourika Valley & Berber Village Day Trip
A fascinating journey from Marrakech via the stunning terrain of the fast-flowing Ourika river and valley, Berber communities, and the spectacular snow-capped Atlas mountains. Includes a tour of the Berber Museum, a visit to the Women's Co-op (Argan Oil production), a short stop for a camel ride (optional), a one-hour escorted trek to the Sett Fatma Waterfall (amazing fun and well worth the trip), and a traditional Moroccan lunch at a riverside restaurant. Hassan, the kind, cheerful, and attentive driver, adds to the enjoyment of the experience. Thank you once more!
