Private Full-Day Tour of Marrakech
6 hours
Marrakech, Morocco
About this activity
Your tour begins with pickup from your central Marrakesh hotel by your private guide. Traveling in the comfort of a private vehicle, set out to the first stop of the day — the magnificent Koutoubia Mosque, the largest mosque in the city, with its 253-foot (77-meter) high minaret.
Continue to the Menara Gardens and enjoy views of the distant Atlas Mountains as you stroll around the botanical gardens, then visit the 15th-century Saadian Tombs, the grand resting place of Sultan Ahmad al-Mansur. Pay a visit to the opulent Bahia Palace to admire the striking mix of Islamic and Moroccan architectural styles, before breaking for lunch (own expense) at a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, head into the walled old quarter of Marrakesh, where the central hub is the huge Jemaa el-Fna square. Here, you can spend time watching the locals go about their day; be entertained by belly dancers, snake charmers, and acrobats; or sample some tasty street food (own expense). Perhaps venture into the surrounding souks to pick up some unique souvenirs, take photos of the colorful stalls, or follow your guide on a walking tour of the atmospheric medieval streets.
After an action-packed day exploring the city, your tour ends with drop-off at your hotel.
