Marrakech: Ourika Valley & Atlas Tour with Lunch
Description
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.

Stop by a local women’s argan oil cooperative for a truly authentic Berber Breakfast experience. Enjoy a spread of freshly baked bread with argan oil, sweet honey, creamy peanut butter and traditional mint tea. Meet the women by showing them the centuries-old process of extracting argan oil, a precious commodity unique in Morocco.
After Breakfast, continue to Setti Fatma, a pretty village in the heart of the Ourika Valley. Upon arrival, enjoy a pleasant hike accompanied by a local Guide to discover the famous waterfalls and admire the beautiful landscapes of the Atlas Mountains.
After the hike, you will dine in a wonderful riverside restaurant, where you will enjoy a delicious Moroccan lunch. You can choose from a variety of dishes on the menu
