Cancellation policy

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

This guided private tour of Marrakesh lets you discover the charm and delight of the beautiful Red City, steeped in history, traditions, and culture. Visit Marrakesh’s largest mosque, the Koutoubia Mosque, where, five times a day, the muezzin calls the faithful to pray! Admire the Moorish architecture, the scalloped arches, the jagged crenellations, and the trademark square design. Head over to the Saadian Tombs, a historic royal necropolis that is also wrapped up in traditional Moorish designs.

Visit the majestic Bahia Palace next, an eye-popping landmark of Marrakesh built in the 1860s. Even though the palace is spread across 8 hectares and has 150 rooms, only a small portion of the area is open to the public. It is now time to visit the bustling Djemaa el Fna, Marrakesh’s main square! All the hoopla and ‘halqa’ (street theater) will have you hooked the minute you arrive. Catch a whiff of the strong spices, shops around for local handicrafts, and walk through the colorful souks of the Medina to really get a taste of Marrakesh’s local culture.
