Day 01
Discover Marrakech's Historic Landmarks and Souks
On this day, we will see the best of Marrakech, which is located in the heart of the country. Because of its location, Marrakech has been the capital of many dynasties that ruled Morocco.
- First, we will visit the Koutoubia Mosque, the city's highest building and most important landmark. This mosque dates back to the 12th century and will be seen only from the outside.
- We will then move on to the 16th-century Jewish Quarter and the 19th-century Bahia Palace. The latter is one of the most marvellous palaces in the country and was owned by Morocco's grand vizier in the late 19th century.
- Then wander through the medina's twisted alleyways to see its traditional markets and souks. It will then be time to visit the famous square of Marrakech, Djamaa Elfena, where you can find snake charmers, acrobats, and musicians performing their art.
- After lunch, we will visit Majorelle Gardens, named after the famous French painter who built his Art Deco villa and started the botanical gardens. In 1980, it became the residence of Yves Saint Laurent. There is also the option of dinner with a fantasia show on this day.
There will be numerous stopovers at various souks so that you may select souvenirs to remember your trip.
