Errachidia is of not much interest from a tourist point of view. It was shortly part of Rally Dakar in 2006 and 2007. The more significant tourist destinations of Erfoud and Rissani are about 78 km and 95 km respectively south of Errachidia. Furthermore, the military use of this town gives it a clean and organized urban net.
