Itinerary

Ourika valley day trip

Day 1Program

Begin your Ourika Valley Day Trip by meeting your accompanying driver from Amodo Tours at your hotel or riad at 8 a.m. During the journey, we will make several panoramic stops to take photos of the Berber villages. If it’s a market day (Monday, Thursday, or Friday), you can visit the local market and experience the vibrant atmosphere.

In addition, enjoy a free visit to the small Setti Fatma Ourika Waterfalls.

*IMPORTANT: There are 7 Ourika Waterfalls. The first waterfall is the only one accessible without effort. To reach the other six waterfalls, you must be in good physical shape and be accompanied by a local guide for an additional fee of approximately €20.

To access the last waterfall, you will need to climb wooden stairs and navigate over rocks. For this excursion, we recommend wearing comfortable shoes with non-slip soles.

Finally, return to Marrakech at the place and time agreed upon with your guide from Amodo Tours. Although we cannot define the exact time of arrival in Marrakech, it will be in the afternoon. This timeframe depends on the time spent on visits, stops, restroom breaks, meals, and traffic on the road. The priority is safety, so setting a strict arrival time can be stressful for the driver.
