Around 08:30am the tour starts from Marrakesh straight to Ourika valley a kind of splendid area between the Atlas mountains famous of its fortified houses built of clay and straw, inhabited by Berber population who have existed in Morocco thousands of years before, and maintained intact their customs and traditions through time. Our first stop will be an extraordinary beautiful panoramic view of the green fields of vegetables and cereals , forage, and - of course - olives, which is a typical product of the valley, some panoramic views deserve to be on your camera, then for interested people, there will be a stop at the cooperative of Argan oil to get a sufficient explanation about how those berber women, do to hand-crack the Argan nuts and squeeze them between two special stones , a technique they've used for centuries . Afterwards drive to the Setti Fatma waterfalls, a tour with a local mountains guide, that lasts 90 minutes approximately, Back from this nice trek we will drive by off-road through mountains, for a chance to admire the beauty of the atlas nature with its different colors, and numerous villages where clay-color homes are still standing after many centuries; Then head to a small village called Sidi Fares, for lunch in a traditional Berber house that looks out on the high Atlas Toubkal mountain with a height of 4167 meters also known as the highest peak in north Africa.
