Essaouira
Morocco’s Atlantic Coast is gorgeous and, once you visit, you will want to come back. Essaouira, a relaxed town set 3 hours from Marrakech, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site – a protected city. The ramparts of Essaouria and the 16th century walled city offer astonishing views of the Atlantic Ocean. A day trip to Essaouira – one of the most charming medinas in all of Morocco – will give you ample time to visit the important monuments, the old fish markets, and the seaport. You’ll also have a chance to watch silver craftsmen and wood carvers at work.
Ouzoud Waterfalls
Morning departure at 8 o’clock from your hotel or riad in Marrakesh. The Ouzoud waterfalls are a 3 hour car ride away from Marrakech and are found in the middle of the Atlas Mountain range. Falling from a height in excess of 100 meters, the falls plunge into an endless series of pools. The gorge of the Ouzoud Waterfalls is home to families of Barbary apes and a variety of native avian species – a bird watcher’s delight! Many visitors to Morocco don’t expect this kind of “natural experience”, so a visit to beautiful Ouzoud comes as a refreshing surprise.
Ourika Valley
Morning departure at 9 o’clock from your hotel or riad in Marrakesh towards Ourika valley at about 1000 m altitude. Here you will discover small villages characterized by red mud brick houses hanging on the sides of the mountain, terraced agriculture, and river banks. Lunch will be served in a local restaurant. In the afternoon, there is time for a walk to reach the waterfalls in the Ourika valley before driving back to Marrakech.
