Marrakech Private Guided City Tour
Overview
Discover the palaces, gardens and souks of the Red City with your own licensed guide.
Marrakech is best discovered with someone who knows every corner of it. On this private tour, a licensed local guide takes you through more than a thousand years of history: the Koutoubia Mosque, the Bahia Palace, the Saadian Tombs and the beautiful Ben Youssef Madrasa.
You then wander the souks with your guide, meet the craftsmen who still work by hand, and finish in Jemaa el-Fna, the most famous square in Africa. Your driver takes care of the transfers, so you can enjoy the city at your own pace.
Highlights
- Koutoubia Mosque the 12th-century minaret that has guided travellers for centuries.
- Bahia Palace painted ceilings, carved cedar wood and peaceful courtyards.
- Saadian Tombs the richly decorated resting place of the Saadian sultans.
- Ben Youssef Madrasa one of the most beautiful buildings in Morocco.
- The souks spices, leather, lanterns and carpets, with the craftsmen at work.
- Jemaa el-Fna the lively heart of the medina.
