Description:

Labyrinthine alleys, food stalls, snake charmers, and artists welcome you into Marrakech's medina. Pass through bustling Djemaa El-Fna, admire the opulent Palais de Bahia, and delve into photos from the Sahara and artifacts from the era of sultans at the Maison Tiskiwin and the Photography Museum.

Begin your tour at the Palais de Bahia. Considered one of the most charming areas in the city, the palace's lush gardens, shady courtyards, and magnificent mosaics were once the luxurious haven of Marrakech's elite. Stroll the rooms and grounds as your guide shares tales of sultans, harems, and slaves.

Continue to the bustling and authentic city center—Marrakech's medina welcomes you with its enchanting chaos. Make your way by snake charmers, fragrant food stands, and street performers, to a local bakery, where you can see how locals prepare their bread—you have the chance to sample the freshest bread in the city. Next, stop at a local hammam to find out how the traditional Moroccan dish Tanjia is prepared.

Your final visit is the Photography Museum. Scan thousands of images that portray Marrakech—a rotating selection of 4,500 photos narrates the past and reflects different eras with portraits, vintage village scenes, and images of the Berber tribes of the Atlas Mountains. At the end of the tour, head to Djemaa El-Fna, where your guide gives you insider tips for exploring the souks and market stalls on your own.
