About this experience

Discover the diversity of the landscapes surrounding Marrakech on this day trip taking in valleys, hidden villages, lakes and mountains. We pick you up in Marrakech and drive out to the lake at Lalla Takerkoust for an hour and half horse riding near the rocky Agafay Desert. Views from here are outstanding with the backdrop of the High Atlas mountains. Our trip takes us up onto the Kik Plateau, sometimes called the breadbasket of the area; it is an elevated plateau where the fields are still ploughed by man and donkeys, and where each family has a plot of land to grow wheat. In spring it is a magical place full of wild flowers and red poppies. lunch in traditional Berber house. In the afternoon, we discover two of the valleys in this part of the High Atlas as we drive through hidden villages where life goes on in time honoured fashion. We pass through the forested trails of Sidi Faress and descend to the fertile Ourika Valley before returning you to Marrakech.

Magic outside Marrakesh.

It was a terrific day. The drivers who picked me up were a chatting and charming pair of gentleman. The horse back riding was a huge amount of fun as we strolled for 90min through the edge of the Afgay desert. But the highlight of the day was a visit to the Berber village of Asne where I got to walk through a section of the village before dining at the home of Rashid, the manager of the tour company. He and his family were hospitable beyond measure. Nothing was forgotten or missed. It was one of my best days in Morocco.

My first hike: Atlas Mountains

Awesome experience! We were group of 3. Made arrangements from India through emails. As paying from India was a problem they agreed to take money in Morocco. Highly professional, kind and caring staff. The trek was very well organized by Rachid. Yusuf the guide is a very nice person. As it was my first trek he was very patient and caring. He gave me many valuable lessons. Hussain the cook made the best Moroccan food I had in all of Morocco. Picnics in the walnut orchards and under the Juniper tree are the moments one live for…..:))

Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Marrakech.

How much does Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery cost?

+

Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Marrakech usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery take?

+

Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Marrakech is not rushed.

Is Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Marrakech, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 24-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Marrakech can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Marrakech and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Horse back riding near Agafay desert and 2 Atlas Mountain valleys discovery start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Marrakech within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Marrakech?

+

On Outty we rank every Marrakech experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Agafay Desert Quad Bike Camel Ride and Dinner Show, Best Marrakech to Fes Sahara Desert Tour with Camp & Camel Trek, 3 Day Marrakech to Merzouga Desert Tour Camel Rides and Overnight. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Marrakech?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Marrakech?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
