Why choose a private Ourika tour?
To leave early. The Setti Fatma waterfalls are quieter early in the morning, especially at weekends and in summer, when Marrakech families head up for cooler air. With a private tour, you can set off before the minibuses arrive.
To choose your stops. You can spend longer in a Berber house, add a saffron or herb garden, detour to the Tnine Ourika souk on a Monday, or skip the cooperative if you have already seen one. Just talk it over with your driver before leaving.
To travel at your own pace. With young children or older parents, you take the breaks you need, adapt the waterfall walk and head back without waiting for the rest of a group.
The price is per vehicle, not per person: the more of you there are, the smaller the gap with the group tour. Travelling solo or as a couple on a tight budget? The Ourika Valley group tour at €20 remains the cheapest option.
