Marrakech One-Day Guided Tour

The Itinerary for the Marrakech one-day Guided Tour is:

Any trip to Morocco should include at least one day in Marrakech. This vibrant and bustling capital city offers a total sensory overload. Day trip itinerary :

1. Try Moroccan Mint Tea: Start off your one day in Marrakech by sampling some of the local mint tea with breakfast. Moroccan mint tea is available just about everywhere in Morocco and will be served alongside most meals. The tea is made from green tea and fresh mint leaves. It can be served sweetened if you like. Like green tea, Moroccan mint tea is said to have many health benefits and is often enjoyed multiple times throughout the day.

2. The Koutoubia Mosque & Gardens: The Koutoubia Mosque is a feature of the Marrakech skyline. It’s iconic, beautiful and a really nice place to visit. You cannot enter unless you are Muslim and praying, but can wander outside and relax in the beautiful gardens that surround it.  The gardens are actually a wonderful tranquil oasis and is a very “red city”. There are fountains, benches to read a book and people constantly selling mint tea (otherwise known as Moroccan whisky).

3. Bahia Palace: After you’ve finished at Koutoubia Mosque, make your way to the Bahia Palace. The palace is beautiful and is considered a masterpiece of Moroccan architecture. It was built in the 19th century and is quite massive, covering almost 20 acres. At the time it was built it was intended to be the greatest palace ever built. The Bahia Palace consists of over 100 rooms, several courtyards, gardens, fountains, and artwork. Visitors can walk through the palace on their own or as part of a guided tour.

4. Yves Saint Laurent Museum : The Yves Saint Laurent Museum is dedicated entirely to legendary fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent. The exhibits in the museum take you through the designer’s life and career, including his time spent in Marrakech. You will get to see up close some of his most iconic pieces from his collections over the years.

5. The Majorelle Garden : The beautiful Majorelle Garden is located just next door to the Yves Saint Laurent Museum. In 1931 French painter Jacques Majorelle commissioned architect Paul Sinoir to build him an art-deco home in Marrakech. Majorelle lived in and worked out of the home until the 1950’s when he sold the home and surrounding gardens. In 1980, the property was purchased by Yves Saint Laurent and his business partner Pierre Berge. Saint Laurent and Berge had become familiar with the gardens during a visit to Marrakech back in 1966.

6. Marrakech Medina : Here you will get lost in the busy souks and visit Jemaa el Fna, the main market square. If you were hoping to do any shopping in Morocco, this is the place to do it. There are over 3,000 stalls in the medina selling everything from rugs, pottery, scarves, bags, jewelry, and tons more. If you’re planning to purchase any items from the souks, be sure to bring cash and be ready to bargain.

7. The Saadian’s Tombs : The next stop on your one day itinerary in Marrakech is the unique Saadian Tombs. Now if you’ve been to Egypt and seen some of the tombs there (as Bradley has), then this not be as impressive. However, if you read the story and history on the tombs, then it’s actually quite interesting.

8. The Badii Palace Ruins :  This is one of the best spots of Marrakech and a must see. The Badii Palace ruins have a really cool history, and I’m not going to go into it here, because you can read all about it when you visit. When you enter you will first head “underground” to where the servants operated and it’s been turned into a “photography” based museum. Afterwards you’ll head upstairs and admire the amazing palace grounds, including one of the biggest remains of a swimming pool ever. The area has lots of beautiful orange trees and if you head to the roof top you’ll get amazing views over Marrakech city.

Lunch Recommandation : If you’re looking for a quick and affordable meal, we highly recommend stopping at one of the many food stalls in the Medina. You’ll find food of all kinds for a great price. There are also so many great Moroccan & international food restaurants.
