“Everything went extremely professionell. Fantastic driver and we felt absolutly comfortable. Thanks!”
A private day trip from Marrakech to Setti Fatma costs 160€ for up to 4 passengers (195€ for 5–7, 300€ for 8–12), with pickup at your hotel or riad, the driver's waiting time, fuel and tolls included. The day takes about 7–8 hours, door to door.
Setti Fatma is the village at the end of the Ourika Valley, about 1h15 from Marrakech, where a rocky path climbs beside the river to a string of waterfalls. Your driver drops you in the village, waits while you walk up and have lunch at a table by the water, then drives you back to Marrakech.
Your driver collects you at your door and stays with you all day, at your pace. Brief stops for photos or tea are included, and the price you booked is the price you pay.

Is a day trip to Setti Fatma worth it?
Yes, if you like walking: the waterfalls are the reward for a short, rocky climb, and lunch with your feet near the river is part of the fun. If you'd rather not walk, the Ourika Valley day trip is the gentler option.

Questions about this day trip
The village, the river and the start of the path suit most families; the way to the higher falls is steep and rocky, so decide on the spot how far to go.
The first waterfall is a short but rocky walk that most people manage in good shoes; the higher falls are steeper. You go as far as you like, and your driver waits in the village. Local guides offer to show the path — that is optional and agreed with them directly.
Yes. The road to Setti Fatma runs through the whole valley, so your driver can stop at a garden, a cooperative or a village on the way up or down — just say where.
