If you are searching for an outstanding discovery of what Morocco has to offer, a private tour to Marrakech from Casablanca might be the right kind of tour for you.
Marrakech is a major economic center and home to a thriving medina. Unlike Fes, Marrakech has Berber rather than Arab roots and was once an important trading capital for tribes of the Atlas Mountains. Discover the charms of Marrakech visiting its most famous neighborhoods and discovering its most important monuments with your private Fes born and bred guide. Begin your discovery visiting the Koutoubia Mosque and Gardens in the daylight. Though the mosque cannot be entered by non-muslims, it’s worth checking out its 12th-century foundations and 253 feet (77 m) minaret. Visit the fountains and pools in the adjoining garden to take a respite from the heat and crowds. Next, discover the exquisite detail of the Ben Youssef Madrasa school of Islam for a taste of 16th-century architecture. Marvel at the arabesques, Islamic calligraphy, and colorful zellij.
Orient around Marrakech’s bustling Jemaa el-Fna Square. Spend time exploring Dar Di Said Museum (also known as the Museum of Moroccan Arts) to see exhibits of clothing, antiques, jewelry, and beautifully carved Hispano-Moorish decorations. Afterwards, indulge your senses as you explore the complicated labyrinth of souks, tucked behind ordinary restaurants and shops. Indulge your senses and check out Souk el Attarin, Souk Chouari, and Souk Smata for a selection of spices, woodwork, and babouche (traditional Moroccan slippers). Visit Souk des Teinturiers (the dyers’ souk) to see firsthand how leather hides and cloth are dyed.
Before you leave back to Casablanca turn the wheel to the Ville Nouvelle, you will find the Majorelle Gardens.
