Atlas Mountains and Day Trip Transfers from Marrakech
Into the High Atlas and back at your own pace, with a driver who knows the mountain roads.
The High Atlas starts less than an hour from Marrakech. A private transfer reaches the Ourika Valley in about 1 h 15, Imlil in 1 h 30, Ouzoud Falls in 2 h 45 and Aït Ben Haddou in 3 h 30. Book one way for a trek or a mountain stay, or ask the driver to wait and bring you back the same day.
Mountain roads are narrow and winding, and conditions change with the season. A local driver, a comfortable vehicle and a flexible timetable turn the journey into part of the day out.
