Pro tips to help you make a pick
The skip-the-line tour includes your Bahia Palace entry ticket and guided experience, while the guide-only option requires you to purchase your ticket separately at the entrance. Booking the skip-the-line version online saves time and ensures a hassle-free visit, though paying on-site offers more flexibility.
Guided tours typically last around 2 hours, covering the palace’s main highlights—from lavish reception halls to peaceful courtyards and gardens. Combo tours that also include sites like the Saadian Tombs, Koutoubia Mosque, or the Medina may extend longer.
The palace is mostly on one level, making it fairly accessible for wheelchair users, though visitors should note that a few sections feature uneven or stone flooring.
