Marrakech Monuments & Souks 3-Hour Tour

1.Marrakech Monuments & Souks 3-Hour Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 1,540 reviews · 3 hours · from $23Our pick

Spend about three to five hours touring Marrakech by air-conditioned minibus and on foot. Visit Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, the Mellah, Jemaa el-Fnaa, the medina, and the souks with an English or French-speaking guide. Guides such as Hicham and Ibrahim are praised for history, patience, local sweets, shopping advice, and help in the markets.

“The guide was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited and didn’t mind my wife keep asking him to take photos of us where we were, and took us back to the coach via the cheapest tourist shop too. Cunning plan to take us to a tea and fragrance lab where we were offered to smell samples. I think we all left with some products, including me. Definitely worth having a guide in the old town souk area, didn’t get badgered once.”

Right after booking, Karim put himself in contact with me via WhatsApp to make sure that we know all possible difficulties when crossing over to Tanger (e.g. that you should better be one hour ahead of time in Tarifa during summer so not to miss the ferry). We met our guide Farid right at the exit in the port of Tanger (he was there with my name). Farid is really a perfect guide, extremely knowledgeable when…”

Meet a licensed guide and driver for a focused three-hour tour of Marrakech’s old city. Visit Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, and the Saadian Tombs, then walk through the Jewish quarter, souks, workshops, and maze-like medina streets before ending at Jemaa el Fna. Entrance fees to Bahia Palace and the tombs cost extra.

“Tour not recommended!!!! We paid for a tour and didn't see what was written in the program. We only saw the Jewish quarter and the souks, while the Bahia Palace and Saadian Tombs, which were included in the tour, were not visited by the guide. He also took us to see a very small museum/palace where a private party was being prepared, with about 200 people working there, so we couldn't even pass through and there was a lot of confusion. In addition to stopping repeatedly to talk to friends, the guide made us go into a carpet shop for 40 minutes. They should refund my money because not only…”

“We really enjoyed the quad bike tour. They picked us up on time and drowe ap. 20 minutes out of town. There we got some good helmets and some information about driving before we started. We were only 4 in the group. It was really funny driving around on different roads. The only negative thing was that the tee drinking inn a berber house was not quite what we expected. We drank tee on a roof terrace whit ap. 20 other quad bikers. But overall we can recommend it. I forgot my bag in the car and was quite stressed. The next day they delivered the bag to our riad,…”
