On this private tour of Marrakech, you'll have an exclusive guide at your disposal to take you around one of the most fascinating cities in Morocco.
Description
You'll have 3 and a half or 5 and a half hours, depending on the tour length you book, to explore all the essential sites of the Medina of Marrakech at your leisure. Accompanied by a local English-speaking guide, head into the Medina to discover the main attractions of its fascinating historical centre. You can visit some of the first monuments to be built when the city was founded in 1070 by the Almoravids, such as the Saadian Tombs, the Bahia Palace, the Koutoubia Mosque, and the souks. You decide!
After discovering why the Saadian Tombs are one of the most visited places in Marrakech, we'll go to the Koutoubia Mosque. Does its tall minaret look familiar? When you see it, you'll be reminded of the Giralda.
Are you a fan of Moroccan architecture? Don't miss the Bahia Palace. Its interior is a great labyrinth of halls and courtyards, where you can admire a combination of Moroccan and Andalusian architecture. You'll be impressed by the mosaics on the walls, the decoration of the arches and the carefully painted wooden ceilings.
Finally, we'll enter the souk to stroll through its narrow streets full of stalls. You'll feel like a real Moroccan and learn the art of bargaining, an essential part of any visit to Marrakech.
Hotel Pickup
The guide will pick you up at the door of your hotel or riad if it's located inside the Medina. Otherwise, they'll meet you instead at the white tower Kubba Fatima Zohra, located in front of the Koutoubia Mosque.
