Day 1 of the itinerary
Arrival in Marrakech depends on your chosen flight and schedule. Time zone differences may apply depending on the time of year. Passport formalities and baggage claim. Outside the airport, your transfer will be waiting to take you to your riad in the Medina or a 4- or 5-star hotel.

We recommend a first glimpse of the Medina, starting with a visit to Djemaa El-Fna Square. At sunset, it comes alive with storytellers, fortune tellers, jugglers, tooth pullers, dancers, snake charmers, and much more. Small, illuminated food stalls also begin to appear outdoors, where you can sample local dishes. Overnight stay in a riad in the Medina or a hotel.

Note: Depending on your flight's arrival time, the guided tour of Marrakech may take place on this day, leaving the following day free to explore at your leisure.
Day 2 of the itinerary
This morning at 9:30 a.m., we'll take a walking tour of the Marrakech Medina with a local guide. We'll begin by admiring the Koutoubia Mosque, the twin of Seville's Giralda, and continue with a visit to the Bahia Palace. We'll wander through the narrow streets of the souk, where we'll have the opportunity to see various artisans at work, weaving carpets, making slippers, and discovering an endless variety of high-quality handicrafts. We'll visit a Berber pharmacy where they'll share their secrets.

We'll then head back to Djemaa el-Fna Square, where the atmosphere is completely different by day than by night. The afternoon is free. Overnight stay in a riad in the Medina or a hotel.
