Private day trips from Marrakech
Marrakech has many escapes within a few hours: the coast at Essaouira, the Ouzoud waterfalls, the Ourika Valley and High Atlas, Aït Ben Haddou or an evening in the Agafay desert with dinner under the stars.
All are private with pick-up at your riad or hotel. For real sand dunes, choose our 3-day Merzouga tour.
Which day trip to choose from Marrakech
For the coast, Essaouira (about 3 hours) with its walled medina and fishing port. For nature, the Ouzoud waterfalls, the Ourika Valley and the village of Imlil at the foot of Toubkal. For a first taste of the desert close to the city, Agafay, less than an hour away and best at sunset.
If you love film history and kasbahs, the trip to Aït Ben Haddou crosses the High Atlas over the Tizi n’Tichka pass. It is a long but spectacular day. In summer we recommend leaving early to avoid the heat.
