What to expect

15-minute cycling from the city center, and with young bicycle guides, you will discover the original oasis of Marrakech in an environmentally friendly way. You will traverse fancy villas and huge castles to follow off-track roads, and explore tiny villages in the heart of the oasis (palm-groove) where locals still live.

You will enjoy a tea stop with Mr. Aziz at his atelier, with fresh bread, butter, olive oil, and more together where he will share his special stories. Your local guide will introduce their culture, how precious water is for them, and the holiness of the palm trees that are of major importance for the oasis. You will learn about the ways the community survives in these difficult geographic circumstances by visiting an old irrigation water system.

You will have several stops to meet Moroccan handcrafts in their tiny ateliers of wood, rattan, Moroccan tiles (Zelij), and metal, where you will spot the simplicity of materials and technics that shapes beautiful art pieces.

Ouzoud Waterfalls Tour with Imi-n-Ifri and Local Lunch

The Ouzoud Falls are one of the top sights in Morocco and easily visited from Marrakech. You'll head into the Middle Atlas Mountains to see North Africa's highest waterfalls as well as a natural travertine bridge. Hamza, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘I've been guiding this excursion for many years, but I still love seeing the falls. They drop 110m down craggy red cliffs, and there are various places to view the cascading water, from above and below. Ouzoud means “olive” in the Berber language, and the falls are named after the ancient olive trees that thrive around this valley.'You'll cross palm groves, pass by typical Berber villages and weave through mountain passes en route to Ouzoud. Reaching the falls, you'll have plenty of time to take photos and marvel at the succession of tiered cascades. There's a permanent rainbow created by the mist thrown up from the natural power of the water, which is at peak flow during the spring.Your guide will point out the best viewpoints, and with luck you might even spot the Barbary apes that call this dazzling place home. Hamza says, ‘Many people think of Morocco as arid. Yet the Ouzoud Falls and the green surroundings bring a sense of vitality and life-force to the landscape.' After your visit, it's time to relax over a meal in a Berber restaurant where you'll tuck into a freshly-prepared local lunch including a typical dish of the region. And there's a photo stop at the nearby Imi-n-Ifri natural bridge on the way back to Marrakech.
