Situada cerca del borde del desierto del Sahara y bordeada por las montañas del Atlas, la ciudad sin salida al mar de Marrakech se despliega en sus alrededores como una de las lujosas alfombras que se venden en los zocos de Marrakech. Las raíces medievales de la ciudad se revelan en un paseo por los zocos o kasbahs de la medina (casco antiguo), cuyos encantadores de serpientes, vendedores de alfombras, puestos de especias y herbolarios estimulan cada uno de los sentidos. Oriéntese en un recorrido a pie, o escape del calor sofocante y marque atracciones como el Palacio de la Bahía, Djemaa el Fna (Lugar de los Muertos), Tumbas Saadianas y el Museo Tiskiwin (Maison Tiskiwin) en un recorrido en automóvil con aire acondicionado . El minarete de la Mezquita Koutoubia es visible desde toda la ciudad y puede ayudarte a navegar por callejones sinuosos si exploras de forma independiente. Un poco más allá de las paredes de arenisca roja de la Ciudad Ocre, el desierto del Sahara y las montañas del Atlas atraen a los aventureros al aire libre. Aprenda sobre la cultura bereber contemporánea en un viaje al valle de Ourika, pasee por el malecón en la Essaouira de influencia portuguesa, recorra el sitio del Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO en Ait Ben Haddou o viaje en 4x4 hasta la base de las cataratas de Ouzoud. Si tiene tiempo para adentrarse más en el desierto, las aventuras de varios días combinan paseos en camello, contemplación de estrellas y tumbas antiguas, y revelan el corazón del Sahara.
