ITINERARY

  • Morocco Berber Travel organizes tours from Marrakech with experienced drivers and guides. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy this 2-day Atlas Mountains trip from Marrakech to Ait Bouguemez, the "Happy Valley," filled with diverse landscapes and authentic Berber culture. The Ait Bouguemez Valley, named the "Happy Valley" by the French due to its colorful fields of apple trees, walnuts, and abundant vegetables, offers an unforgettable experience.

    We will start from your accommodation (riad or hotel) and head to our first stop: the amazing natural bridge of Imi n'Ifri, a cave-like bridge formed 180 million years ago, standing 200 meters high. After that, we will continue our journey to a local Berber family in Ait Bouguemez for lunch. On our way to the Happy Valley, we will have the golden opportunity to visit dinosaur footprints and cross fantastic landscapes, including genuine Berber villages and cliffs.

    Once we arrive at the Happy Valley, we will visit a communal granary built in the 16th century by the Jewish community of Ait Bouguemez. We will spend the night in a traditional guest house, enjoying a delicious Berber dinner.

  • After a late breakfast, we will drive back to Marrakech, taking a different route to explore another part of the High Atlas Mountains. Along the way, we will have the opportunity to pass through various Berber villages, such as Ait Abbas Valley, and experience the region's unique vegetation and traditional Berber communities. We will stop in Azilal, the main city in the Central High Atlas, for a refreshment break. Afterward, we will continue to the Ouzoud Waterfalls, the highest waterfalls in North Africa at 110 meters. Here, we will enjoy lunch with a view of the waterfalls. After lunch, we will make our way back to Marrakech.
