What makes Private Day Trip to Atlas Mountains a unique experience ?

The panoramic road to Ourika is breathtaking! Along this mountainous route, you will catch sight of the majestic peaks of the Atlas Mountains and cross through authentic Berber villages nestled in several valleys, including Tafza, Aghbalou, and Oulmes. These stunning vistas and fascinating landscapes provide a wide array of picturesque views to admire.

After having a taste for adventure and exploration, we will stop at the vibrant, Berber village of Setti Fatma, nestled in a canyon under the High Atlas Mountains and renowned for its series of seven waterfalls. We arrive early to avoid the crowds of mass tourism and to be able to enjoy the peace and tranquility while taking in the breathtaking panoramic views of the region. You can take a beautiful hike to the waterfalls with a local guide, whom we will hire for you at no additional cost and who will assist you in crossing them. You will also walk along the Ourika River, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes!

Now that you’ve been able to take epic photos with stunning backdrops, or simply be in the moment and reconnect with yourself; and after a stop at a cooperative of organic argan oil made by women to learn more about the health benefits of Morocco’s most precious natural gift, it’s time for a good lunch! To avoid tourist traps and overpriced restaurants, you’ll meet real locals at a Berber family home: a fresh Moroccan salad, the main course (a delicious and authentic slow-cooked Berber tagine), and fresh seasonal fruits. Home-cooked and hearty, healthy and wholesome! And to fill your belly with joy, Moroccan tea accompanied by a local pastry will also be offered!

On the way back to Marrakech, you’ll experience camel riding in a picturesque village surrounded by the Atlas Mountains, dressed in traditional Tuareg/Nomad clothing (a scarf and blue Saharan robe) provided to you free of charge! And if you want to complement your experience, you can also visit a traditional artisan pottery workshop and/or a local Berber shop showcasing traditional rugs woven in the High Atlas Mountains. Note: At The Moroccan Tour, we’ve decided to be completely transparent about all our services. Therefore, we inform you that if you decide to purchase products during this day trip, we may receive a commission on sales. This allows us to remain attractive to the best tour guides and local partners, which allows us to carefully select genuine, helpful, and non-intrusive individuals!
