Description:

This tour offers you the chance to see the city’s famous historical, natural, and culinary highlights in one convenient package. Stroll through some of Marrakech’s most picturesque gardens, wander the labyrinthine streets of the Medina, and take a break over lunch in a traditional restaurant.

Begin at Majorelle Gardens, where the morning light illuminates the vibrant colors of the architecture, set vividly against the lush green vegetation. Continue to the Koutoubia Gardens for a stroll through the peaceful site to the towering minaret of the local mosque.

Pass by the grand private residence of Dar El Bacha Palace on your way to the narrow streets of the medina. Hidden away among the maze-like streets are treasures your guide is eager to show you, ovens churning out typical street food, and an array of workshops where craftsmen produce goods to be sold at the souks.

At the popular restaurant of Dar Nejjarine, tuck into the signature Morroccan dish of tagine, which cooks slowly in a specially shaped vessel to create mouthwatering aromas and delicious flavors. Walk off your lunch with a stroll through nearby neighborhoods to the 19th-century El Bahia Palace's grand courtyards and gardens.

Complete your tour on a rooftop terrace. With a view over the plaza of Jemaa el-Fnaa, this is a prime spot for people-watching in one of the city’s liveliest spots. With a refreshing mint tea in hand, watch as the buzz of daily life unfolds among the market stands and streetscapes below.
