Marrakech: Ourika Valley Nature Waterfalls and Berber Culture
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Our excursion to the Ourika Valley stands out for an authentic discovery of nature and Berber life, just an hour from Marrakech. We take you through green landscapes, traditional villages and to the waterfalls of Setti Fatma, with time to walk, breathe the clean Atlas air and enjoy the river. The experience is friendly and flexible, with a local Driver Guide who shares the culture and traditions of the area. Far from the quick visits, we favor calm, proximity to nature and a relaxed pace for a real break outside the city.

5.00An exceptional experience; I am happy and proud to know that there are still good people who understand the history of our Moroccan culture and represent it well as it should be. The choice of the hiking route, authentic restaurants, and beautiful panoramic views is exceptional as well. A big thank you to Aziz for this beautiful day.

5.00Aziz and Ahmad are very friendly and welcoming. We greatly appreciated the information about the region, and they answered all our questions. The hike is very pleasant, the waterfalls are magnificent and refreshing, and the small restaurant by the river is quite nice. We do not regret this choice of activity at all!
