What you can expect

Get picked up from your accommodation and head to Gueliz & Hivernage, the modern part of the city, built by French settlers in the early 1900s. Today it is a busy hub of international brands and trendy cafés, as well as “the Champs-Élysées of Marrakech.”

Next, arrive at the imperial heart of the old city through Bab Agnaou, one of the 19 gates of Marrakech and the main entrance to the Royal Kasbah. Passing by the Moulay El Yazid Mosque, you'll then see the Koutoubia Mosque, the city's most iconic symbol and tallest structure, its minaret guiding travellers home for nearly a thousand years.

From here, visit the exquisite Bahia Palace to admire the fine Moorish architecture and gorgeous ceramic tiles.

Stroll through the Jewish Quarter, where you can better understand the vital role of Jewish culture and community in developing the unique identity of Marrakech, passing by the Farnatchi, a centuries-old furnace room that still heats the neighborhood's traditional hammams.

Discover the historic Medersa Ben Youssef, once the largest theological college in North Africa, an architectural treasure nestled in the heart of the old Medina.

Finally, wander through the fascinating labyrinths of the city's most vibrant and colourful open-air marketplace, arriving at Jemaa el-Fna, the beating heart of Marrakech.

Wander through bazaars full of charm and character, stalls packed with mysterious potions, colourful piles of spices, exquisite rugs, and much more. The combination of sounds, sights, and smells is enough to leave even the most hardened of travellers feeling completely mesmerised.
