Excellente expérience avec vous : très réactif, très bonne communication et toujours disponible. Ayoub notre chauffeur a été très ponctuel, sympathique et conduisait très bien. Voyage confortable à 4 dans un van. Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Je recommande vivement.
We took the services of the company for two transfers – from Agadir airport to Essaouira (driver Mohammed) and from Essaouira to Marrakech. Everything went perfectly smoothly. The cars were of good quality and the drivers drove safely (as much as this is possible on Moroccan roads). Communication with them was also ver
Service impeccable pour notre transfert d'Essaouira à Marrakech ! Chauffeur ponctuel, Nous avons demandé un van qui est très propre et confortable. Leur réactivité est vraiment appréciable et toute l'équipe est très professionnelle. Je recommande les yeux fermés !
Le service était au top !! Nous avons fait plusieurs trajets avec Taxi Arganier pendant notre séjour (notamment entre Marrakech et Essaouira) et à chaque fois les chauffeurs étaient bien à l'heure et super aimables. On a également changé plusieurs fois les horaires et ils ont à chaque fois eu la flexibilité d'accepter.
We did many tour with this company: we went to Essauira, we did city tours in Marrakesh, Casablanca and Fez and we did a transfer from Casablanca to Fez passing through Rabat. In all these activities we were very good taken care of, and the guides were all very good and taught us a lot about the history and culture of
Service impeccable, j'ai fait appel à Mohamed 2 fois et les 2 fois pas de soucis à l'heure (petit message la veille ou le matin du départ avec résumé de la course) et ses chauffeurs conduisent très bien et sont très discrets !! Les tarifs sont raisonnables et très compétitifs. Merci Mohamed et rdv pour la CAN en Décemb
Très belle expérience avec Taxi Arganier pour notre trajet de Marrakech à Essaouira. Chauffeur très gentil, ponctuel et à l'écoute. Conduite parfaite, rassurante et confortable tout au long du parcours. Je recommande sans hésitation.
J'ai fait appel à leur service pour un transfert, et pour la location de deux véhicules, sept places, une équipe formidable avec des véhicules propres et bien entretenus et des prix défiant toute concurrence avec un plus des conseils pour les visites et des arrivées et départ très flexibles, super équipe, je recommande
Es hat alles sehr gut geklappt. Ein professionelles und strukturiertes Unternehmen. Wir wurden mit dem neuesten Skoda Kodiaq von Essaouira zum Flughafen nach Marrakesch gefahren. Der Fahrer war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Kommunikation für die gesamte Fahrt war höchst professionell! Ich kann dieses Unternehme
Taxi très professionnel..contact permanent ..très agréable, efficace, ponctuel. Prix très raisonnable et véhicule nickel. La meilleure compagnie de taxi du Maroc. Il m'a envoyé à chaque voyage le nom du chauffeur, le véhicule etcccc Merci à toi !!!!
We wilden vanuit Marrakech naar Essaouira. [...] Fijn dat de tarieven transparant zijn en gunstiger dan zelf een auto te huren. [...] Alle afspraken stipt nagekomen. De chauffeur op de heenweg was vriendelijk en rustig en reed veilig. [...] Wat ook nog eens heel tof was, was dat hij ook nog bereid was midden in de nach
Very professional, we booked a trip to the Essaouira airport, we asked if they could come before the agreed time and they did accommodate. Comfortable car for a family of 5, reasonable price and chauffeur was nice. I would repeat and recommend.
Отличное такси, поздно вечером перед днём отъезда быстро договорились о цене и времени отправления, быстро нашли для меня машину, водитель приехал за несколько минут до назначенного времени, огромный микроавтобус для меня одной [...] в пункт назначения приехали даже раньше, чем планировалось. Водитель ехал аккуратно, с
Notre voyage entre Marrakech et Essaouira fut très bien. Les chauffeurs étaient chaque fois ponctuels et conduisaient bien. Nous avons surtout apprécié Salah qui a été très ouvert à nous expliquer un peu la culture du pays et autres. Les échanges avec lui étaient très intéressants. Le responsable était aussi très effic
I had a fantastic experience with them. From the moment we booked, everything was seamless. The driver arrived on time, was extremely courteous, and helped with our luggage.

I had the pleasure of meeting Rachid, who provided exceptional taxi service. From the moment I got into the car, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. The car was clean and comfortable, and the ride was smooth and safe. He was punctual, courteous, and always willing to help with lu
I was in Morocco with friends for 2 weeks in August. We used Taxi Arganier for 3 long transfer plus many other shorter ones. They are always on time, serious, reliable, communication via WhatsApp is very easy and immediate. They are always available to help whatever transfer you need. You previously agree the price via
Merci à Taxi Arganier !!! Vous pouvez leur faire confiance à 100%. J'ai booké une prestation aller retour avec eux, ils sont adaptables et ils ont des tarifs super attractifs. Et je tiens à remercier les chauffeurs car j'avais oublié mon téléphone dans leur voiture, ils me l'ont apporté de suite !!! Merci encore à Taxi
Nous sommes allés à Marrakech début avril 2025. N'hésitez pas à faire votre réservation à l'avance, vous allez recevoir rapidement une confirmation en retour. Le responsable est très sérieux et bien organisé. Le taxi vous prend en charge à l'heure et n'hésitez pas à organiser vos visites et sorties, ou pour vous rendre
Sin duda alguna la mejor opción para moverse en Marruecos ya que conducir un coche de alquiler es una locura. Muy buen precio, lo puedes gestionar todo antes de viajar por WhatsApp y si surge algún traslado más, también puedes tramitarlo sin problema durante el viaje. Pendientes en todo momento de cada traslado, vehícu
The taxi from Essaouira to Marrakech was on time and the driver very nice. Everything was perfect. We took a van of 7 people and it was 20 euros less expensive than the official hotel transfer. They were also very reactive on WhatsApp. THE BEST OPTION FOR US.
Je confirme tous les avis positifs. Le service est d'excellente qualité de la prise de contact avec Mohamed via WhatsApp jusqu'à mon arrivée à Essaouira. Les échanges ont été réguliers, le service et la ponctualité étaient au rendez-vous. La conduite de Rachid (notre chauffeur) a été très rassurante. Je tiens à noter l
Brilliant taxi company — a fair bit cheaper than transport via our accommodation and perfect service every time we used them. Nice comfortable air conditioned vehicles as well. They are also super responsive on WhatsApp with respect to any booking queries.
Une demande de transfert du Riad à l'aéroport en ligne via le site du prestataire. Des tarifs transparents, une réponse rapide via WhatsApp pour un devis 11 personnes. Le chauffeur a ensuite pris contact et communiqué son nom et confirmé qu'il sera bien au lieu de prise en charge à l'heure prévue. Et ce fut le cas. Zak
Serviço extremamente profissional, muito carácter, simpatia e uma ajuda constante. Sempre pontuais, na chegada a Agadir lá estava o senhor a acompanhar-nos e no regresso, bem antes da hora, a questionarmos se precisávamos de alguma ajuda. Muito obrigado pelo serviço.
Nous avions contacté Mohamed depuis la France, pas de mauvaises surprises les jours, lieux et le montant des trajets convenus à l'avance. Petits réglages sur place pour les horaires. Transferts pour Marrakech, Essaouira, Agafay avec des chauffeurs à l'heure et très gentils dans des véhicules confortables. Prix très cor
Mohammed was really efficient, responsive and made organising taxis so much easier. We booked a taxi from Marrakech airport to Essaouira return plus an airport taxi from Marrakech to the airport. I booked this in the UK and he checked regularly before we left the UK and confirmed our booking. On arrival the driver made
Amazing service. The drivers were nice and helped us throughout our Morocco trip. We booked multiple times with them — once for a 10 day trip across Morocco, and twice airport drops. Every time the drivers were punctual, cars were on time and we had a hassle-free experience.
Chauffeur ponctuel, rassurant, nous tient informés à l'avance par photo de la voiture qui nous attend. Nous l'avons pris de Essaouira à Marrakech puis une seconde fois pour un retour de nuit à l'aéroport de Marrakech. Aucune embrouille, tarifs corrects. Voitures confortables. Nous étions 4 avec luggage. Nous recommando
J'ai contacté cette société la veille de notre départ à 22h pour organiser un transfert depuis notre hôtel à Essaouira vers l'aéroport.

Mohamed a planifié et organisé nos transferts à la perfection pour un tarif très raisonnable entre Marrakech - Agadir, Agadir - Essaouira et Essaouira - Casablanca. On était très satisfait de son service car il a été très professionnel. J'utiliserai sûrement ces services pour nos futurs voyages au Maroc. Je le recomman
We had a great experience with this taxi company during our trip to Essaouira. They picked us up from the airport and also dropped us back at the end of our stay. Our flight was delayed on arrival, but they waited patiently for us without any issue. Both trips were smooth, the driver was friendly and professional, and
I like the efficiency of the service. Their drivers were punctual and courteous, making the whole ride pleasant. The vehicles were clean and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable journey. Booking a ride was easy through their user-friendly app, and their prices were competitive. Overall, Taxi Service offers a reliabl
Very easy to book via website and communicate with the service provider Mohammad and the driver Rashid via WhatsApp. We used the taxi to go from Marrakech airport to Essaouira and back to Marrakech 3 days later. Very good value for money (70 euros each way) and kindness, they also had a baby seat for my 2 year old kid.
We booked all transfers with Taxi Arganier via WhatsApp, from Menara airport to Essaouira and back to Marrakech city, also last day from medina to the airport. Everything was perfect, easy communication, clean and comfortable vehicles, very nice drivers and always on time !!!! So we highly recommend this company. Thank
Les chauffeurs sont ponctuels, très sympathiques, serviables, avec une conduite sécurisante, les véhicules sont récents, spacieux et propres. Le contact se fait en français, par WhatsApp ce qui est très pratique et les tarifs ultra compétitifs ! Parfait pour notre voyage en famille ! À recommander fortement.
We booked the taxi a bit late in the evening (around 11pm) for a 5am pickup the next morning. All contact is via WhatsApp and the person managing the reservation desk was quick to reply and very helpful. He sent me the booking confirmation with details of the driver and car. Abdo the driver arrived early and contacted
Round-trip Marrakesh - Essaouira - Taroudant - Marrakesh - Airport. 4 different days. On time, every time. Good drivers. Prices agreed in advance. Precise and fast communication on WhatsApp, answers within minutes, change of plans dealt with immediately. Comfortable and spacious car.
Brilliant service. All our transfers were on time and confirmed in advance. Drivers were safe and flexible (one kept stopping for us as our kids get travel sick coming down the mountain). Cars were roomy and safe. Would definitely use again. You made all our travels feel very safe and easy. Many thanks.

The best means of transportation, comfort, trust and professional drivers.
Taxi Arganier est une excellente compagnie, abordable et fiable. On est venus nous chercher à l'aéroport d'Agadir à l'heure.

We took 3 rides with them during our travels in Morocco (round trip from Marrakech to Essaouira plus an airport transfer). Both drivers are very punctual, clean, friendly and non-smokers (if that matters to you). The coordinating agent on WhatsApp was easy to communicate with and made sure everything happens smoothly.
Very nice taxi amazing helpful and respectful and so fast and I always will order from this place.
They were on time, they wrote me one day before with the number of the person that was going to pick me up and he also send me a text message. The price is good. Excellent service.

Mohammed is the best driver and took great care of us, stopping to let us shop for argon oil and lunch at the nicest restaurant. We highly recommend Mohammed.
Why choose Taxi Arganier for your 3 Valleys tour?
A loop circuit, 3 landscapes in 1 day
Lalla Takerkoust lake, the Kik Plateau and the Ourika waterfalls: three contrasting moods — mineral, panoramic and lush green — without ever driving the same road twice. A programme that only a private taxi can deliver at your own pace.
Tea with a Berber family (on request)
On request, your driver invites you into an Amazigh home on the Kik Plateau or in the foothills of Asni: freshly brewed mint tea, wood-oven flatbread and genuine conversation far off the tourist trail.
Kik Plateau panorama, the must-see photo spot
At around 1,500 m of altitude, the Kik Plateau unfolds a unique scene: terraced olive groves, the snow-capped ridges of the High Atlas in the background and absolute silence. The most photographed viewpoint on the circuit — and one often skipped by group guided tours.
Never back along the same road
The full loop (R203 → P2010 → P2017) is roughly 100 km and guarantees a seamless experience: every kilometre of the return trip reveals a fresh landscape, from argan trees to the olive groves of the Ourika Valley.

About the tour
3 Valleys of the Atlas: Lalla Takerkoust, Asni & Ourika in a single day
The 3 Valleys circuit from Marrakech is a 100 to 110 km loop that links three moods of the western High Atlas in a single day: the blue-green sheet of the Lalla Takerkoust dam, the terraces and panoramas of the Kik Plateau above Asni, then the descent into the Ourika Valley down to the Berber villages of Tahanaout and Setti Fatma. Each leg has its own character — mineral, pastoral, lively — and the transitions between them are as beautiful as the sites themselves.
Unlike the classic Ourika day trip, which you can reach by shared bus, the 3 Valleys loop requires a private vehicle: the three valleys converge on secondary roads (R203, P2010, P2017) not served by public transport, and the programme involves several stops that don't fit into a group minibus tour. A private taxi gives you the freedom to pause on the Kik Plateau for the morning light, to linger over tea with a local family or to shift lunch in the Ourika depending on your mood.
01
Lalla Takerkoust Dam
Built between 1929 and 1935 on the N'Fis River, the Lalla Takerkoust dam is the first major stop on the circuit, about 35 km south-west of Marrakech. Its man-made lake stretches over several kilometres in a setting of bare ochre hills, dotted with tamarisk and reeds. In the early morning, the low-angled light turns the surface of the water into a bronzed mirror. Local operators offer paddleboarding and jet skiing — an option to mention to your driver if you'd like to book a slot. At the water's edge, a few terraces serve argan coffee and Berber pancakes: the ideal break before heading up to the plateau.
02
Kik Plateau & Asni Valley
After Lalla Takerkoust, the P2010 road climbs towards the Kik Plateau, at around 1,500 m of altitude. The landscape shifts: gone are the mineral reliefs, replaced by centuries-old terraced olive groves and meadows where pack mules graze. On a clear day, the High Atlas range spreads across 180° — Toubkal (4,167 m) stands out in the distance. This is the circuit's iconic photographic viewpoint, still spared from the crowds. Heading down to Asni, you cross a bustling agricultural crossroads: if you pass through on a Saturday, the weekly souk of this small town fills the streets with colour and scent — spices, dyed wool, mules laden with vegetables. To go further towards the roof of Africa, our Imlil day trip sets off from this very point.
03
Tahanaout & the Ourika Valley
At the Tahanaout junction, the road drops down into the Ourika Valley via the P2017. The Ourika River soon appears, lined with willows and terraced gardens irrigated by seguias. The villages rise in tiers up the slopes, built of pinkish pisé and reinforced with black schist arches — a striking contrast with the bare rock of the plateau. From lunchtime, the Berber inns serve lamb tagines with garden vegetables on terraces overlooking the river, a recommended stop before climbing up to Setti Fatma and, depending on the season, its waterfalls reachable on foot in 20 minutes. For a full focus on this valley, see our Ourika day trip.
04
Berber villages & tea with a local family
All along the loop, the Amazigh villages of the western High Atlas have kept their pisé architecture, their narrow alleys and their slow pace. On request, your driver Mohamed arranges a stop with a family on the Kik Plateau or the Asni hillside: mint tea is poured in three rounds — the first bitter as life, the second sweet as love, the third light as death, as the saying goes. No entrance ticket or set price, just a courteous gesture (a few dirhams or a box of tea offered as a gift). It's often the moment travellers remember longest after they return home.

Sample programme (8 a.m. departure)
| Heure | Étape |
|---|---|
| 08:00 | Departure from your Marrakech hotel |
| 09:00 | Arrival at Lalla Takerkoust dam — lakeside stroll, coffee |
| 10:00 | Climb up to the Kik Plateau — panorama stop, photos |
| 11:30 | Descent towards Asni — souk break (Saturday) or Berber village |
| 13:30 | Lunch in an inn in the Ourika Valley |
| 15:00 | Up the Ourika towards Setti Fatma (optional waterfall walk) |
| 17:00–17:30 | Return to Marrakech by the direct road (R203) |
Practical tips
- Clothing: the Kik Plateau can be cool even in summer (–10 °C compared with Marrakech); bring a light jacket even in July.
- Sunglasses and sunscreen are essential: the glare off the lake and the heights is strong.
- Footwear: light trainers are enough for the village paths; there's no need for hiking boots on this circuit.
- Cash: the inns and traders at the Asni souk don't take cards.
- Setti Fatma waterfalls: the flow varies greatly by season — impressive in winter and spring, modest in August-September.
Possible variations
- Add the Setti Fatma waterfalls (+ 1 h): doable on the 10-hour package, ideal in spring (abundant water, lush vegetation).
- Add Imlil: not recommended combined with the 3 Valleys in a single day — the timing is too tight to enjoy it. Go for our dedicated Imlil day trip instead.
- Nearby desert alternative: if you're after a more arid, mineral landscape, the Agafay desert is an excellent day alternative, without the Atlas.

Experiencing the 3 Valleys of the Atlas from Marrakech
A tailor-made day trip from Marrakech, at your own pace, with a dedicated driver.
Marrakech is one of the few starting points in the world where, in under an hour, you go from the medieval medina to a colonial-era dam reflecting snow-capped peaks. The red city is an ideal springboard for the 3 Valleys day trip: traffic flows freely heading south from 7.30 a.m., and the Atlas roads are accessible all year round — even in January, when snow blankets the Kik Plateau and the Ourika waterfalls swell. Our fleet sets off from any hotel, riad or apartment in Marrakech, with no surcharge for the Gueliz, Hivernage or medina districts.
The circuit is designed as a reading of the western High Atlas from west to east: you head out to the furthest point first (Lalla Takerkoust, 35 km SW) to enjoy the morning light on the lake, climb in altitude for the day's panorama (Kik Plateau, 11 a.m.–12 p.m.), then descend for lunch in the cool of the Ourika before returning by the direct road. This direction of travel avoids driving into the sun and maximises the golden hours for photos.

Many Marrakech visitors hesitate between the classic Ourika day trip and the 3 Valleys circuit. The difference is simple: the Ourika alone is an out-and-back on a single road (R204) with one ecosystem (river, waterfalls, palm groves); the 3 Valleys form a full loop and string together three distinct moods. For a first stay in the High Atlas, the 3 Valleys circuit offers a far more complete picture of the region's diversity. Check our day trips from Marrakech page to compare all the available packages.
For families, the 3 Valleys have the advantage of never doubling back: children never see the same landscape twice, and the stops (lake, souk, lunch) punctuate the day with a natural rhythm. The late-afternoon return by the direct road leaves time for a hammam or a dinner in the medina before 8 p.m.
Everything you need to know about the 3 Valleys circuit
Distances, durations and tips to plan your 3 Valleys tour.
The 3 Valleys circuit from Marrakech links three complementary geographic areas of the western High Atlas. Lalla Takerkoust is a man-made dam built between 1929 and 1935 on the N'Fis River, 35 km south-west of Marrakech: its reservoir lake is the starting point of the circuit. From there, the P2010 road climbs towards the Kik Plateau (around 1,500 m of altitude), an open panorama onto the High Atlas range, then drops back down to Asni and its famous Saturday souk. Tahanaout, an agricultural crossroads at the midpoint, marks the entrance to the Ourika Valley — a river lined with pisé villages and irrigated gardens that leads up to Setti Fatma and its waterfalls at the end of the track.
The full loop (R203, P2010, P2017) measures 100 to 110 km and takes around 4 hours of actual driving, plus the stops. A private taxi is the only practical way to do this loop, with no public transport connection between the three valleys.

FAQ — 3 Valleys day trip from Marrakech
The price of the 3 Valleys day trip from Marrakech starts at €36 per person for a group of 5 to 7 travellers, and €55 per person for 4 (that is €220 for the vehicle in a sedan, €255 in a minivan, full-day round trip circuit). Beyond 7 people, a custom quote is available within 2 h. All rates are fixed and include fuel, tolls and the French-speaking driver; tea with a local family and lunch are paid on site.
The "3 Valleys from Marrakech" circuit brings together: the N'Fis River valley (Lalla Takerkoust lake), the Asni valley (Kik Plateau, Saturday souk) and the Ourika Valley (Ourika River, Tahanaout, Setti Fatma). These three valleys of the western High Atlas form a continuous loop of 100 to 110 km from Marrakech.
The standard duration is 8 to 10 hours depending on the stops chosen. An 8 a.m. departure from Marrakech allows you to be back before 5.30-6 p.m. The package with the Setti Fatma waterfalls can last up to 10 h. Actual driving accounts for around 4 hours; the rest of the time is spent on visits and lunch.
Yes, and it's even strongly recommended! The weekly Asni souk is held every Saturday morning and gathers Berber farmers from the neighbouring valleys: spices, dyed wools, animals, mountain vegetables. If your day trip falls on a Saturday, let your driver know at booking so you stop at the right moment — usually between 10.30 a.m. and 12 p.m.
Yes. Local operators offer paddleboarding and jet skiing on Lalla Takerkoust lake, available depending on the season (mainly April-October). These activities are organised on site and are paid (around 100-200 DH). If you're interested, let your driver know at booking to plan a long enough stop (45 min to 1 h).
The traditional welcome in a Berber family on the Kik Plateau or in Asni is free in the strict sense, but it's customary to leave a few dirhams as a thank-you or to offer tea or biscuits bought along the way. Your driver was born in the region and personally knows several host families — authenticity is guaranteed, with no touristy staging.
The Ourika day trip alone is an out-and-back on the R204 road focusing on the river, the villages and the Setti Fatma waterfalls (6-7 h). The 3 Valleys circuit is a full loop (8-10 h) that additionally includes Lalla Takerkoust lake and the Kik Plateau panorama. If it's your first stay in the High Atlas, the 3 Valleys offer a far more complete overview of the landscape's diversity. If you've already done the loop, the Ourika alone lets you linger longer on the hike up to the waterfalls.
Absolutely. The loop involves no compulsory hiking: everything is done by car, with chosen stops. Baby seats are available free of charge. The stop at Lalla Takerkoust lake (beach and lawn at the water's edge), the terrace lunch over the Ourika and the visit to a Berber village generally please children a lot. The only caveat: the altitude of the Kik Plateau (1,500 m) can cause slight tiredness in little ones who aren't used to it.
Yes, that's the "3 Valleys + Setti Fatma waterfalls combo" package (~10 h). You must set off at 7.30-8 a.m. from Marrakech and limit long photo stops. The walk on foot to the waterfalls from Setti Fatma takes about 40 minutes round trip. This package is ideal in spring (abundant water, long light) but feasible in any season.
The circuit is doable all year round, but each season has its own magic. Spring (March-May): maximum green vegetation, abundant waterfalls, almond and argan trees in blossom — the favourite season of photographers. Autumn (September-November): golden light, fewer crowds, ideal temperatures. Winter: the Kik Plateau can be snow-covered (spectacular but bring warm clothes). Summer: hot in Marrakech, but the altitude cools things by –10 °C on the plateau — the circuit stays pleasant if you leave early.
