What You'll Discover

09:00

Koutoubia Mosque & Gardens

Begin at Marrakech's most iconic landmark — the 12th-century minaret visible from all over the city. Stroll the rose gardens surrounding it.

09:30

Djemaa el-Fna Square

The beating heart of Marrakech — snake charmers, storytellers, henna artists and orange juice sellers. Best experienced in the morning before the crowds.

10:00

The Souks of the Medina

Guided walk through the UNESCO-listed medina's labyrinthine souks — spice market, leather tanners, carpet weavers, brass crafters and silk merchants. Your guide helps you understand (and navigate!) the complex network of alleys.

11:30

Bahia Palace

19th-century masterpiece of Moorish architecture — carved cedar ceilings, colourful tilework and beautiful courtyard gardens built for a royal concubine.

12:30

Saadian Tombs

16th-century royal burial site hidden for centuries — ornate Islamic craftsmanship with original Italian marble and cedar wood carvings.

14:00

Majorelle Garden (optional)

Yves Saint Laurent's iconic cobalt-blue botanical garden with exotic cacti, YSL museum and the serene Islamic Art Museum (entry at own cost).

16:00

Sunset at Djemaa el-Fna

Return to the square for its magical evening transformation — food stalls, music and the electric energy of Marrakech at dusk.

"Finally understood Marrakech!"

Without a guide, Marrakech's medina is completely overwhelming. Our guide made sense of everything — the history, the crafts, which spice shops to avoid and which to trust. Best investment of the trip!

"Passionate guide, incredible knowledge"

Our guide knew every corner of the medina. The stories about the Bahia Palace and the Saadian Tombs brought history to life. A perfect way to spend a day in Marrakech.

"La médina comme on ne la voit jamais seul"

Nous avions essayé d'explorer la médina seuls la veille — catastrophe! Avec le guide, tout était différent. Les ruelles, les palais, les souks... une expérience magique et authentique.

Marrakech City Tour — FAQ

Yes! Majorelle Garden can be added to the itinerary. Entry is €8/person (paid on the day). We recommend booking tickets in advance during peak season (March–May, October–November).

Marrakech is generally safe, but the medina is extremely confusing and touts can be persistent. A licensed guide takes away all the stress and gets you to the best spots efficiently.

Modest dress is recommended — covered shoulders and knees, especially near mosques and religious sites. Comfortable shoes are essential for the cobblestone medina.

Absolutely! We can arrange a half-day Marrakech city tour in the morning followed by an afternoon Agafay Desert experience. Ask us to customise your perfect day.
