Ourika Valley day trip from Marrakech

À propos de ce circuit

How does a day tour to see the Atlas Mountains and explore the Berber countryside sound? Perfect! This Ourika Valley day trip from Marrakech tour is one of our more popular excursions. Together, we’ll explore the Atlas Mountains and follow the Berber trails of Morocco. Also, we’ll visit some Berber villages. As well as some very interesting markets. And we’ll hike the western slopes of the High Atlas Mountains. However, you’ll definitely need something to capture the moment. So, we recommend that you bring a camera with you. Generally, this trip is downright breathtaking. Particularly the rugged mountains that you’ll get to see.
