Half-day private tour in Sidiflah Gorge from Skoura

Walk a palm grove oasis and eat with Berber families

A half-day private tour from Skoura takes you through a palm grove of more than 100,000 trees in the Sidiflah Gorge, where you walk the oases, drink Berber tea, and share a meal with local families. The guide speaks English, Spanish or French. Private transportation to the gorge is available as an add-on. The tour itself includes all fees and taxes.

The experience

The palm grove spreads across more than 100,000 trees, and the walk moves through it at an easy pace, stopping to take in the panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains. You spend time in the oases themselves, not just passing through them. The landscape is the point. A local family hosts you for Berber tea and lunch, and the guide translates so you can learn how they live and work the land. The whole experience runs about two hours.

Your guide arrives speaking English, Spanish or French, and the tour is private, so the pace and the stops are yours to set. If you're staying in Skoura without a car, private transportation to the gorge can be arranged separately. The tour rate covers entry, the guide, and the meal with the family. Children from age 5 are welcome, and the paths and surfaces are wheelchair accessible throughout.

What’s included

• All entry fees and taxes.
