    Ouzoud Waterfalls Day Trip from Marrakech

    This full-day excursion takes you to the impressive Ouzoud Falls, one of Morocco’s most popular and spectacular wonders and the second-highest waterfall in the country at 110 m, weaving in some of the region’s most scenic settings along the way: olive groves, Berber villages, the Tanaghmeilt viewpoints, the terraces and stalls, the footbridge, and the river at the base of the cascades. You explore the falls area, walk down past terraces to the mid-level lookouts and the base of the 110-metre cascades, take the small boat near the falls (optional), cross the footbridge for alternate views, browse local stalls, and watch Barbary macaques, before returning to Marrakech in the afternoon.

    Every itinerary is fully customisable to suit your preferences and pace.

    Ouzoud Falls Day Trip from Marrakech

    Itinerary

    MARRAKECH -> OLIVE GROVES & BERBER VILLAGES -> OUZOUD (TANAGHMEILT) -> MARRAKECH

    After an 08:00 pick-up from your riad/hotel, travel northeast through olive groves and Berber villages with a short comfort stop en route. Arrive around 10:45 at Ouzoud (Tanaghmeilt) for a brief orientation at the upper viewpoint, then walk down past terraces and stalls to mid-level lookouts and the base of the 110-metre cascades (steps/uneven paths in places).

    Enjoy free time on your own from roughly 12:15 to 14:00 to take the small boat near the falls (optional), relax by the river, or choose a café for lunch (own expense).

    After lunch, you have more free time to cross the footbridge for alternate views, browse local stalls, and watch Barbary macaques. If you prefer minimal walking, you can remain on the upper terrace area and still enjoy excellent views while the rest of the group explores. Regroup by 15:30 at the upper car park, then depart for Marrakech with a comfort stop on the way, arriving around 18:00–18:30 for drop-off at your accommodation.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Is the trip private or shared?

    The trip is a completely private experience. You will travel exclusively with the members of your own group, without joining other tourists. This gives you greater flexibility with the schedule, stops, pace, and overall experience.

    How long does the drive take?

    The drive from Marrakech to Ouzoud takes around 2.5 to 3 hours each way, with a comfort stop and photo stops along the route. The full day is roughly 10 to 11 hours, including free time at the falls.

    How much walking is involved?

    Reaching the base of the cascades involves steps and uneven paths, so closed non-slip shoes are recommended. If you prefer minimal walking, you can stay on the upper terrace area and still enjoy excellent views.

    What is the best time to visit Ouzoud?

    Ouzoud is beautiful year-round. Spring and autumn are especially pleasant, when the water flow is strong and midday temperatures are comfortable.

    What type of vehicles are used?

    We use modern, comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles:

    • 4×4 SUV — Toyota Land Cruiser Prado or similar, for up to 4 people
    • Minivan — Mercedes Vito Tourer, Ford Tourneo, or similar, for up to 8 people
    • Minibus — Mercedes Sprinter or similar, for groups of more than 8 people

    Can you accommodate dietary requirements?

    Yes. We can accommodate a wide range of dietary requirements, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other specific requests. Please let us know when booking so we can recommend suitable cafes at the falls.

    Is the trip suitable for all ages?

    Yes. The trip is suitable for travelers of different ages; those who prefer not to descend to the base can enjoy the upper viewpoints while the rest of the group explores.

    Where does the trip start and finish?

    Pick-up and drop-off are available directly from your accommodation or any location in Marrakech. If preferred, the trip can also start or finish in another city upon request.

    Expenses and additional costs

    Currency exchange: Euros and US Dollars can be exchanged for Moroccan Dirhams (MAD) at banks, airports, and exchange offices. ATMs are also widely available throughout Morocco.

    Cost of meals: Lunch is not included and generally costs around 5–20 EUR per person, depending on the restaurant. Bring some cash for cafes and the optional boat at the falls.

    Bargaining: Negotiating prices at local stalls is a normal part of shopping culture in Morocco.
