Day trips from Marrakech

  • Atlas Mountains and Berber villages. Drive up to Imlil or Asni, walk through the valleys and have lunch with a view of Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa.
  • Ourika Valley. A green valley at the foot of the Atlas, with Berber villages, an argan oil cooperative and the waterfalls of Setti Fatma.

  • Essaouira. The relaxed Atlantic town with its blue boats, ramparts and medina, via the argan countryside.
  • Agafay desert. A stony desert only an hour from Marrakech, for a camel ride or quad biking at sunset.

Day trips from Fes

  • Meknes and Volubilis. The imperial city of Moulay Ismail and the best preserved Roman ruins in Morocco.
  • Chefchaouen. The famous blue town in the Rif mountains.
  • Ifrane and the cedar forest. The Switzerland of Morocco and the forest of Azrou, home to wild Barbary macaques.

How it works

Day trips are private, with your own driver and vehicle, pick-up and drop-off at your hotel or riad. Tell us the day trip, the date and the number of people, and we will send you the price. Contact us or write on WhatsApp.

Want to see the Sahara?

The dunes of Merzouga are too far for a day trip. Also, the shortest option from Marrakech is our 2 day trip to the Zagora desert, and from Fes the 2 day trip to Merzouga.
