Ourika Valley Day Trip from Marrakech
About 30km from Marrakech, nestled in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, lies the charming Ourika Valley—a top-notch spot in Morocco. It's perfect for those seeking adventure, relaxation, and a taste of Moroccan culture. The valley boasts scenic views, a lovely river, Berber villages, and waterfalls.
The highlight of the day trip is visiting a traditional Berber house, once owned by a nobleman and lovingly restored. Inside, you'll soak in the Berber traditions through artifacts and photos dating back to the 1900s. Catch your breath on the roof terrace with a scenic view of the Ourika Valley, sipping tea prepared by the mother of the house.
Afterward, we'll stroll through the valley to the village of Setti-Fatma, known for its seven waterfalls. A leisurely walk will lead us to these beautiful falls, and lunch will be enjoyed by the Ourika River. Finally, we'll head back to Marrakech, dropping you off at your accommodation around 5 PM.

We had an absolute blast during our 4 days trip with Hassan. An amazing adventure that went beyond our expectations. Everything was perfect, from the itinerary, places we stay, the restaurants, the pictures spot, to most importantly all the fun and the good vibes while discovering an amazing side of Marocco. A country of contrast worth discovering and Hassan, and together with Trips In Morocco, they were the perfect host ! I can only recommend. Thanks for the amazing time, choukran khouya 😁.
An absolute blast!
Hassan has been an amazing guide, driver and friend! Me and my two friends have spent four amazing days with Hassan, we traveled from Marrakech to the desert, crossing some amazing landscapes and discovering local places thanks to him! A true experience of Morocco with a local who gave us more than we would have expected! The night in the desert in a Berber camp was the best part of this trip among many other amazing moments. Thank you Hassan for your help, your knowledge your time and your patience!
I recommend him even for solo travelers. As women we felt very secure, and we have trusted him very much!

Best Holidays of my Life
After a two-year delay I was finally able to complete our trip from Fez to Marrakesh with my two grown-up children via the Sahara and Dades Gorge. The landscape is spectacular following the Low and then Ante Atlas mountains with their ancient rust-coloured mounds - popular with film-makers. From David Lean to Scorcese. The long drive on day 1 was rewarded with a camel ride on the magestic dunes, a stunning sunset amd warm Berber welcome in the camp. The upmarket tents had hot showers and wifi and the tajines were delicious and the luminous night sky must not be missed. From there we visited Morocco's film studio with helpful guide and on towards the Gorge - the sheer scale is amazing and we stayed in a Kasbah (fortified house) again with stunning views. The finalmdrive over the High Atlas - greener and more populous, confirmed the beauty of Morocco. Hassan is very knowledgeable and we had many laughs along the way. Thanks for a very memorable Xmas!
Spectacular Road Trip
We arrived in Marrakech and toured for two days and then were met at our Riad by Hassan who was right on time. We had a three day tour planned from Marrakech to the desert to Fez. Hassan knew the places to stop for breaks or photos on our way to D'ait Ben Hadou which was a Kasbah used in Hollywood movie sets and fairly well maintained. Hassan gave us the history and led us on a tour of the Kasbah. After visiting that Kasbah we drove through the Valley of Roses and stopped for the night in Dades. Amazing views along the way and Hassan provided a narrative to the different places about history and culture and answered any of our questions. The next day we headed to Merzouga for a tour of the dunes. The transfer between each of the sites and each of the hotel arrangements were great. One the way to Fez we decided to have Hassan extend his tour services for the rest of our four days traveling from Fez to Tangier to Rabat to Casablanca and then back to Marrkech. Hassan is a great guide has lots of recommendations on what is possible to see, has a great sense of humor and made suggestions for possible hotels for us to book on our own. We have done other private tours in other countries and I can say Hassan contributed a lot to our trip. Highly recommend.
Best private tour company
We had an amazing 4 day trip with Hassan from Marrakech to merzouga dunes and back including camel trek to spend a night in the desert camp. There is a lot of driving on this tour but we were very comfortable in Hassan's 4x4 and with plenty of great scenery along the way and many stops to the visit the Kasbah Ben Haddou, Ouarzazate, the Rose valley, Dades valley and Toudra oasis and Toudra gorge etc it broke up the journey well. Hassan was good fun and informative without being overbearing, he basically took us anywhere we wanted to go!- and always made good choices for lunch stops. We were very happy with the 'luxury' accommodation. All in all a wonderful experience and a highlight of our trip to Morocco.
Thank you Hassan!
Highly recommended!
