Highlights
Start your day with an early departure from Marrakech to make the most of the trip. The drive to the Ourika Valley is scenic, with stunning views of the Atlas Mountains along the way. Your first stop is the women’s argan oil cooperative, where you’ll learn about the traditional methods used to extract this valuable oil. You can also sample argan products and discover their many uses. Continue on to the village of Sti Fatma, the gateway to the waterfalls. Take some time to explore the vibrant local market or enjoy a coffee before starting your journey. The hike to the waterfalls offers stunning views of the valley, lush vegetation, and small streams. While the first waterfall is relatively easy to reach, exploring requires a little more effort and sturdy shoes. After your hike, return to the village and enjoy a leisurely lunch at a riverside restaurant. Traditional Moroccan dishes like tagines, couscous, and fresh salads are common, accompanied by refreshing mint tea.

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).
