Ourika Valley

This is the ideal day-trip excursion.

It starts at 9h00 from the Riad and you'll be back at 17H00.

Ourika is a lovely valley in the Atlas Mountains at 50 KM from Marrakech, and it is the home of the Berbers from Morocco. Ourika is also the river that flows down this lush valley of the Atlas and its name comes from one of the tribes of Masmouda (original Morocco).

You will go through Tnin Ourika (on a Monday, you'll experience the local market), then you'll stop for a photo spot where you can see and ride camels while admiring the wonderful landscape.

You'll then visit a Berber house, and get to see and understand how the Berbers live. Afterwards, you'll visit an Argan oil farm managed by women.

Finally , you arrive at Setti-Fatma, where you can hire a local guide to get to see the waterfalls or just enjoy a lovely lunch by the river, your feet almost in the water from Ourika.

A rich day of discovery in perspective.
