Highlights
The valley DE l'Ourika is a beautiful region located in the Atlas Mountains, famous for its fortified houses built EN torch. It is inhabited by a Berber population that has lived in Morocco for thousands of years and has preserved its customs and traditions over time. Our first stop will be at a vantage point offering an extraordinary panoramic view of the green fields DE vegetables and DE cereals, as well as DE fodder and olive trees, whose oil is a typical DE the valley product. Then there will be a stop at the argan oil cooperative to get a full explanation of how these Berber women work to break argan nuts by hand and squeeze them between two special stones, using the technique they have been using for centuries. We will then visit a Berber house and meet its owners to get an idea DE their mo DE vie, and finally head to the waterfalls of Setti Fatma.

About Marrakech
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.
Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.
Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
