Highlights
  • Ourika Valley - for those who are looking to get away from the warmth or hustle of Marrakech, the Ourika Valley offers a verdant retreat at the base of the majestic Atlas Mountains. Embark on an excursion beyond the city limits to discover the verdant hamlets, fruit groves, and lush flora of the area. Travel across the Haouz plain to the deserted village of Aghmat, established by the Berbers prior to the advent of Islam. Proceed to ighref (the trailhead) to ascend Jebel Yagour, a peak renowned for its prehistoric engravings. Take in the sweeping vistas of the tiny Berber settlements scattered throughout the area, as well as the clear waters coursing through the hilly terrain to water the Ourika Valley. Pause for a revitalizing mint tea in a nearby herb garden and relax as you absorb the stunning scenery of the valley.

Fantastic Ourika Valley Tour with Jamal and Abdellah! - I recently took a tour of Ourika Valley with Jamal, and it was fantastic! Jamal was professional and passionate, making the day truly enriching. Special thanks to Abdellah, our mountain guide, who was incredibly kind and helped me climb with great patience. The scenery was breathtaking, and the organization was perfect. Highly recommend this experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Choose another company for the excursion - The tour started pretty well. But when we got to the valley they made us pay another Guide to go see the waterfalls. At the end it was time to go to lunch but they didn't let us choose restaurant and of course they took us to the most expensive. In the rest you can eat the same for 6-7 euros and in the one we went were 12-15 per person. The worst part was when we finished eating as they tried to force us to hang a review about the excursion from our mobile but filled by the driver. So don’t trust the rest of the reviews because they can have filled them in directly.
