The tour offers an authentic and immersive experience of Marrakech guided by a local who knows every secret corner of the city. You’ll explore the vibrant souks, majestic palaces, and hidden riads while learning about the city’s rich history, architecture, and culture.

We go beyond the usual tourist routes to show you the real Marrakech full of colors, stories, artisans, and everyday local life.

During the visit, you can also choose to explore some of the city’s most iconic monuments, such as the Bahia Palace, the Medersa Ben Youssef, or the Jardin Secret. These sites are optional and not included, but we can add them to the tour on request for an extra fee.
