This half-day city tour is the ideal introduction to Marrakech. You'll unravel the city's history and culture by visiting some of its top attractions including Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace and Museum of Marrakech.

We'll kick off the tour at the 12th-century Koutoubia Mosque. Towering over Marrakech at 70 metres high, its minaret is the tallest building in the city and can be seen from almost all parts of the old town. You can admire its intricate stone carvings and pink-hued facade as your guide reveals more about its history.

Next on the agenda is a special one, Marrakech's crown jewel - Bahia Palace. Wander through an extensive network of courtyards, gardens, and ornate pavilions, learning about its colourful past as you go. We'll round things off at the Museum of Marrakech. Here, you'll be able to delve into Moroccan history and culture, through vast collections of ancient objects, weapons and pottery.

    The guides were both very friendly and knowledgeable. The only thing we would change would be more time at the palace - we were kind of rushed through and didn’t get to see everything we wanted.

    Guide was so friendly and really got us involved. Had lots of time to explore independently. The mosque and palace were stunning. A lot of walking, which was fine and manageable, but about 10,000 steps in 3 hours

    The guide was attentive and friendly but given the size of the group we didn’t receive very clear details of what we were viewing

    Guide very poor at communicating and our visit to the pharmacy was far too long and can't see why this is part of a history tour. To be quite honest this was the worst tour I have ever been on.

    The palace school & mosque visits were great. Being able to go straight in & avoid queuing was a big bonus. It was quite hard to keep up with the guide going through the souks as there was so many people & bikes moving & making it difficult to see him & keep up.
