The Experience in Detail
A 100% Private Day in the Atlas Mountains
Treat yourself to a 100% private getaway in the High Atlas: a driver-guide all to yourself, at your own pace, from the moment you leave your riad until your return to Marrakech in the late afternoon.
The road winds through spectacular mountainous landscapes to the traditional Berber villages of the Ourika Valley. After a stop at an authentic Berber home for mint tea and a visit to a women’s argan oil cooperative, head to Setti Fatma for a guided hike to the famous waterfalls, seven cascades nestled in the rock, fed by the snows of the Atlas Mountains.
Lunch is not included in the standard tour price, but a traditional three-course Moroccan meal served by the river, with your feet almost in the water, can easily be added upon request by contacting us prior to your departure. After your time by the river, enjoy a scenic drive back to Marrakech.
