Ourika Valley day Trip Programme

The shortest Moroccan day trip that we run from Marrakech, the trip to Ourika Valley is a bargain when it comes to travel time, with just 1 hour spend in the luxury of our Toyota Landcruiser before arriving in the fresh and lush paradise of Ourika Valley.

Setting off from Marrakech half an hour later than our usual day trips, you will travel just 30km outside the city, but due to the drastic change in landscape it will feel like you’ve gone 200km!

Due to the small travel time, your trip to Ourika Valley is highly customizable, allowing you time to explore, sit and enjoy the scenery featuring steep farmed and natural hillside, discover a Berber village or seek out the beautiful gardens and monuments for which the area is famed.

Because of the proximity to Marrkech, don’t be surprised if you share Ourika Valley with local Moroccans enjoying a well-deserved break, especially during the holidays – it really is a favorite beauty spot for so many.

Lunch will be provided, with tastes and intolerences catered for as best as possible – but please remember this is primarily a rural landscape and therefore options for eating out are relatively limited.

However, the food that is available is delicious – just speak with your trip operator beforehand.

    Meno male che abbiamo conosciuto Yassine!! Tramite un passaparola di amici siamo arrivati a Yassine. Non avrei potuto chiedere di meglio. Una guida molto informata, parla diverse lingue e sa tanto di ogni cosa anche non inerente al Marocco. Una persona educatissima e disponibile per ogni necessità. La frase che più mi ha fatta sentire serena è stata quella che spesso ripete “take your time” ….che altro chiedere durante un viaggio dove vuoi solo rilassarti!?? Yassine è la guida che assolutamente consiglierei, avevamo una bimba di due anni e chiaramente aveva messo a disposizione seggiolini perfetti, non ci ha fatto mancare nulla e la sua cordialità rimane impressa. Abbiamo fatto una giornata nel deserto di Agafay e un giorno intero con lui alle cascate di Sti Fadma. Grazie Yassine.Gaia, Raffaele e Sveva !

    Morocco tour with Yassine Amazing 6 day tour around Morocco with Yassine! We loved our trip - especially the overnight trip to the Sahara - and wish we could have stayed longer. Very well organised and a great way to see the country.

    3 day tour with Yassine Yassine promised us a trip to remember, and he sure delivered. - His passion for Morocco shone through as he shared his experiences and answered all our questions in our quest to learn more about the country. - His easy going, welcoming and fun natured spirit made us feel like a part of the Moroccan family.- After my 3-day tour, he even helped coordinate any new arrangements I needed during the remainder of my stay in Morocco. - there was one hiccup I had on arrival at the airport and his team quickly resolved the matter with ease- He gave us enough space to allow us to enjoy moments on our own - He is a Safe and reliable driver and was always on time- He ensured we had everything we needed and that all our requests were met (dietary, sleeping arrangements, shopping etc) - the length of the tour was managed with sufficient time so that we were not rushed and could have stopped whenever we wanted. - Good with the camera and always ready to take great photos of us- Hotels chosen for us were very beautiful, relaxing and comfortable and seemed to be in the ideal locations- it was great to have someone else do the planning for once I definitely recommend Yassine (Morocco Sunny Days) to plan your entire trip in Morocco.

    Amazing adventures with Yassine Yassine is simply the best to go on a cross-country trip with! We enjoyed a wonderful and magical experience going to the Desert Camp in Erg Chigage with him and an even more charming trip to port town of Essaouira. He's not just an experienced driver but also a lovely, kind and funny person - it's fun to be on the road with him. We always felt secure and well looked after as Yassine is very attentive and makes every journey or trip as comfortable and interesting as possible. We've seen and learned a lot during our travels with him and also enjoyed some great conversations! Keep up the amazing work!
