Day Trip From Marrakech To Ourika Valley

Day Trip From Marrakech To Ourika Valley

The day begins with a pickup from your hotel or riad in Marrakech at 9:00 AM. From there, you’ll journey into the Atlas Mountains, passing through picturesque Berber villages and lush landscapes. Along the way, enjoy the spectacular views of valleys, rivers, and the imposing mountain peaks.

You’ll make your first stop at a traditional Berber family home, where you’ll be treated to a refreshing cup of Moroccan tea and learn about local customs and culture. Afterward, continue your journey to an olive oil cooperative, where you’ll see how the olive oil is produced and learn about the process that has been passed down through generations.

Next, you’ll head toward Setti Fatma, a small village in the Ourika Valley known for its seven stunning waterfalls. Enjoy a guided hiking tour to explore the waterfalls, surrounded by lush greenery and picturesque views. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can opt for a camel ride through the valley, offering a unique perspective of the landscape.

After your hike, you’ll enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch at a local restaurant, set against the backdrop of the mountains. The meal will give you a taste of authentic Moroccan cuisine, with a variety of flavorful dishes.

In the afternoon, you’ll have some free time to explore the valley at your own pace or relax by the waterfalls. After a day full of adventure, you’ll return to Marrakech in the late afternoon, with your driver dropping you off at your accommodation.
