Details
What families with children ask us
What are the best day trips from Marrakech with kids?
The Palmeraie camel ride (20 minutes away), the Agafay desert evening (45 minutes) and the Ourika Valley (1 h 30) are the easiest. Ouzoud Falls has the macaques kids love, but it is about 2 h 45 each way.
Do you provide child seats?
Tell us your children's ages when you ask for a quote, and we'll confirm the seats in writing for your vehicle.
Can young children ride camels and quads?
On the camel rides, young children usually share a camel with an adult and the handlers walk alongside. Quad drivers are usually 16 or over; younger children can ride as passengers with an adult.
Is the Ourika waterfall walk OK for children?
It involves stepping stones and a short scramble that most children over six manage with a hand from the guide. Younger ones can stay on the terrace with a parent.
How much does a family trip in Morocco cost?
We don't publish prices. The cost depends on your dates, how many of you there are, the vehicle and where you sleep, so we send a fixed written quote within 24 hours of your request. There is no deposit to ask for one.
