Your adventure begins promptly at 09:00 am, as your driver awaits behind the wheel, ready to whisk you away from the embrace of your slumbering abode in Marrakesh.

Next on the itinerary is Tnin Ourika, or the Monday souk of Ourika, where villagers engage in time-honored trade practices beneath the canopy of their green crown.

As your journey progresses, follow the gentle flow of the Ourika water stream, leading you to the tranquil village of Douar Setti Fatma, a sanctuary from Marrakesh’s scorching summer heat. Whether you choose to embark on a spirited trek to the upper reaches of Sitti Fatma or prefer a leisurely exploration, local tour escorts are on hand to guide your way.

For those inclined to sit back and soak in the scenery, this shared one-day travel plan offers ample opportunities to feast your eyes upon the lush greenery that surrounds you.

In Ourika, every sense is indulged, from the sights and sounds that delight the soul to the flavors that tantalize the palate. Immerse yourself in the culinary delights of Moroccan Berber Tajines unique to this region, savoring each delectable bite.

As the day draws to a close, bid farewell to Ourika and embrace the journey back to Marrakesh, where your shared one-day trip culminates at the iconic Jamaa El Fana square by 5 pm.
