The red city
Marrakech is Morocco’s most visited city and the starting point of most of our tours. Its medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, blends lively souks, palaces, gardens and riads hidden behind simple doors.
What to see in Marrakech
- Jemaa el-Fna square: storytellers, musicians and food stalls at dusk.
- Koutoubia Mosque, whose minaret is the symbol of the city.
- Bahia Palace and the Saadian Tombs.
- Majorelle Garden, the famous blue garden.
- The souks: spices, leather, lamps and crafts.
- Ben Youssef Madrasa, a gem of Moroccan decoration.
Day trips from Marrakech
From Marrakech it is easy to take day trips to the Ourika Valley, Essaouira, Ouzoud or Aït Ben Haddou. With 3 days or more, the highlight is the tour to the Merzouga desert across the High Atlas.
Practical tips
Stay in a riad inside the medina for the full experience. Spring and autumn are the best seasons; summer is very hot. We pick you up at your riad or the airport and organise a private trip at your own pace.
