Ourika Valley, Atlas Mountains, Waterfalls & Guided Tour

Experience the beauty of the Ourika Valley up-close on this full-day scenic tour from Marrakech, escaping the hustle and bustle of the city for a day. Though the Ourika Valley is the closest day trip from Marrakech, its charm goes beyond convenience. Drive towards the Atlas Mountains, soaking in the stunning landscapes of green meadows and authentic 16th and 17th-century Berber villages. On Mondays, you can even stop at a vibrant roadside souk. Admire fruit orchards, vegetable terraces, and villages perched on hillsides. Marvel at the Berbers' labor, hoisting materials to build houses on mountainsides and cultivating terraces in a challenging environment. Continue along the valley of palm trees, following the Ourika River. Fruit trees, tiny hamlets, riverside restaurants, and summer homes of the wealthy dot the landscape. Head to Setti Fatma to experience the refreshing waters. Feel the cool spray on your face, a perfect respite from the African heat, alongside locals from Marrakech who cherish this spot as their favorite weekend retreat.
