Fully explore the splendor of the Ourika Valley on this full-day panoramic tour from Marrakech and leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind for a day. The closest day trip to Marrakech is the Ourika Valley, but it's not just its proximity that makes it unique.

If you visit on a Monday, you even have the option of stopping at a roadside souk.
Discover fruit orchards, vegetable terraces and villages clinging to the hillsides. Come admire the work of the Berbers who brought materials to build small houses on the mountainside and worked the terraces in a hostile environment. Continue along the valley of palm trees, following the Ourika river. The fruit trees, small hamlets, riverside restaurants and summer homes of the wealthy will keep you busy. Go to Setti Fatma to enjoy the refreshing waters.
