Full description

Experience the beauty of the Ourika Valley up-close on this full-day scenic tour from Marrakesh, and escape the hustle and bustle of the city for the day. The Ourika Valley is the closest day trip from Marrakesh, but it’s not just its convenience that makes it special.

Drive towards the Atlas Mountains, taking in the beautiful landscape of green meadows and authentic 16th and 17th-century Berber villages. If you take your tour on a Monday, you can even stop at a roadside souk. See fruit orchards, vegetable terraces, and villages clinging to the side of hills. Marvel at the labor undertaken by the Berbers who hoisted materials to construct small houses up mountainsides, and work the terraces in a hostile environment. Continue along the valley of palm trees, following the Ourika River. Fruit trees, tiny hamlets, riverside restaurants, and the summer homes of the wealthy will keep you occupied. Go to Setti Fatma to feel the refreshing waters. Feel the spray on your face as you cool down from the African heat, along with the locals of Marrakech who have made it their favorite weekend retreat.

We had a really good day, the waterfalls were amazing and the hike up and down though in some parts intense was good. The guide oussama was amazing at making sure we were all safe and happy to continue. Recommend wearing a good pair of walking shoes but the views are worth it. The restaurant for lunch was beautiful, right on the river and very good value for money. The addition of the berber markets was a lovely touch as we managed to go on a Monday when they are on and you felt the culture there. The guide oussama was very knowledgeable and welcoming, he spent time getting to know all of us and made sure we got to most out of the day.

An excellent day out for the adventurous type. A lot of hiking involved, up some very steep, slippery parts. I had an amazing guide, who helped me a lot on the difficult navigation of the climb, on the way up and also coming down. A good idea to wear really good comfortable shoes like trainers. A lot of stops on the way to so you get to see a lot on this trip, Berber houses, craft shops, Atlas Mountains. The day was finished off with a beautiful relaxing meal by the side of the river, where you can also dip your feet to cool off from the hike.
