Popular tours and itineraries including Ourika

Visit the Ourika Valley

The Ourika valley is located at the western end of the High Atlas Mountain range, with a river feeding lush green fields from which sprout groves of lemon, orange and olive trees. Visit the Berber villages and houses hanging onto the mountainside, the waterfalls and rocky landscapes.

The Lawrence of Morocco map displays the locations of the destinations and accommodation that we have selected and visited; for each item, hovering over or clicking the marker will display a short summary and photo of that place or hotel, and hotel pricing. Follow the links in the info box to the full page listing which has much more information.

Note that the online map offers both a satellite view (click satellite in the top right) and, for some locations, a street level view (Drag the person in the top left onto the map). These let you explore the country; and when you wish to explore in person, or if you have any questions about the places you see, give our staff a call, or request a quote. Our staff regularly visit the places and accommodation that we feature.

When you book a holiday with us we will provide full driving instructions for reaching your accommodation, where necessary; these can be used by yourself, or you could enjoy the luxury of a driver. Alternatively we will arrange private (car rather than coach) transfers for you; helicopter transfers are also possible for some destinations.

Testimonials

Hotel La Roseraie, Ouirgane, Morocco holidays

We felt we had found the perfect holiday tailor made for us by Lawrence of Morocco.

Dear Max,

Many apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

Transfers - these were efficient, punctual and the drivers were excellent.   I know we were travelling on major routes to the mountains/coast and not all roads in Morocco would be like them, but the standard of the roads we drove on put the potholes of Surrey to shame!  …

We explored all the zebra-skins, live chameleons, piles of indigo and jars of argan oil in the souk.

Deputy Editor of Harper’s Bazaar, Sasha Slater, travelled with her family to Marrakech and Ouirgane with Lawrence of Morocco in April 2014.
