Private Day Trip From Marrakech to Essaouira

Your private adventure begins at 9:00 AM, with pick-up from your Marrakech accommodation in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Travel through the peaceful countryside toward the Atlas Mountains, soaking in the ever-changing scenery of olive groves, terraced fields, and mountain peaks.

Your first stop is Lalla Takerkoust Lake, a tranquil reservoir that supplies water to Marrakech, a perfect spot for scenic photos. Continue to the village of Aguergour, where you’ll be warmly welcomed by a Berber family and offered traditional mint tea. Learn about Moroccan tea culture and daily life in the mountains.

From there, journey across the Kik Plateau, a wide expanse with panoramic views of snow-covered peaks. Then, explore the charming village of Asni, where you can visit its lively weekly market (held on Tuesdays) and see how locals trade goods in a traditional setting.

Next, drive to the lush Ourika Valley, one of the most beloved destinations near Marrakech. You may choose to enjoy a camel ride along the river before meeting your local mountain guide for a scenic hike to the Setti Fadma waterfalls. After your hike, relax with a traditional Moroccan lunch by the riverside or in a Berber home, a true highlight of the day.

As the afternoon draws to a close, your driver will take you back to Marrakech, arriving at your accommodation around 6:00 PM, filled with unforgettable memories of Morocco’s natural and cultural beauty.
