Souks and Medinas of Marrakech Tour

Marrakech is a city full of many souks and markets, hiding away in the narrow alleys and squares of the Medina's. On this morning tour you will visit Morocco's most famous souks for an opportunity to be part of the daily hustle and bustle. Shop for local handicrafts and souvenirs of your visit to Morocco as you explore the souk and practise your bargaining skills. In Djemaa El Fna Square, acrobats, snake charmers and Gnawa musicians entertain the crowd while creating a lively atmosphere.

Visit Medersa ben Youssef, a former Islamic college named after the sultan Ali ibn Yusuf who was influential in the expansion of the city. Once one of the largest theological colleges in North Africa housing as many as 900 students, the building has been refurbished and reopened to the public as a historical site.

Before returning to your Marrakech hotel, you will also stop by a herbalist for a presentation of spices and plants used in traditional Moroccan medicine.

4 star rating: Recommended Reviewed by Robert Albert B, Gibraltar, May 2010

Disappointing start as when phoning to confirm collection time we were informed that maybe we would be unable to go since there were not enough people.However the time was agreed eventually and the visit proved to be a worthwhile one.Guide's English was a little difficult to understand.

3 star rating: Worth doing Reviewed by Deborah W, November 2012

Good for a first trip into Marrakech City, gives you the confidence to venture out on your own the next time. Guide was very good especially as it was the Sunday after Eid, a lot of the souk shops were closed, so no hassle
