Highlights
  • Koutoubia Mosque - visit to the Koutoubia minaret, the tallest in Marrakech. Within the city walls, no building is allowed to be taller than the Koutoubia. The minaret is part of the largest mosque in Marrakech, which was completed in 1199.
  • Bahia Palace - Bahia Palace, a late 19th-century palace built for the grand vizier and named for his favorite wife. The rooms, set in a 2-acre garden, include the rooms which housed his harem, an often political position.
  • El Badi Palace - ‘Palace of Wonder/Brilliance’, also frequently translated as the “Incomparable Palace” or Badi’ Palace is a ruined palace located in Marrakesh. It was commissioned by the sultan Ahmad al-Mansur of the Saadian dynasty a few months after his accession in 1578, with construction and embellishment continuing throughout most of his reign. The palace, decorated with materials imported from numerous countries ranging from Italy to Mali, was used for receptions and designed to showcase the Sultan’s wealth and power.
  • Saadian Tombs - The Saadian Tombs are a historic royal necropolis in Marrakech, Morocco. They date to the time of the Saadian dynasty, and in particular to the reign of Ahmad al-Mansur (1578–1603). They are located on the south side of the Kasbah Mosque, inside the royal kasbah (citadel) district of the city. The tombs have, because of the beauty of their decoration, been a major attraction for visitors of Marrakech.
  • Kasbah Mosque - The Kasbah Mosque (also: Mansouria Mosque or Mosque of Moulay al-Yazid) of Marrakech is a Friday Mosque originally built by the Almohad caliph Yaqub al-Mansour in 1185-1190 CE. It is located in the old kasbah of Marrakech, the citadel or royal district. Along with the Koutoubia Mosque, it is one of the most important historical mosques in Marrakech.
  • Jemaa el-Fnaa - You will have walk to explore Jemaa el Fna, the primary square in the medina and a UNESCO world heritage site. Though now filled with street performers, snake charmers, merchants, and orange juice stalls, when it was created in 1050, it was used for public executions, perhaps leading to its name which can be translated as \

Happy traveller Mercy from UK - Just being back home from an epic trip. My Family Moroccan holiday experience in June 2024 exceeded expectations. We had the most amazing time in Marrakech, all really well organised by Mohamed Nogot. Mohamed thoughtfully planned the itinerary based on the short amount of time we had. He made sure that we visited the places we desired to cover. He chose the right mix of activities and every aspect of our itinerary unfolded super smoothly and we did not feel rushed. This bespoke trip by Mohamed Nogot gave us the opportunity to see the vibrant parts of this beautiful city. He meticulously planned and crafted a custom itinerary just for my family.Mohamed Nogot’s high level of personalised attention requires high praise indeed. He was excellent in planning and directing us to the most popular places we should visit as well as to suit our travel wishes. To those thinking of travelling solo l guarantee you that you will feel completely safe and well supported by Mohamed Nogot. I can highly recommend this exceptional gentleman who has impeccable time management and top-notch communication skills. He is very skilled and knowledgeable. He can easily engage and captivate his audience. He is well-versed for the local cultures. l look forward to more trips in Morocco under Mohamed Nogot’s guidance.

Perfect half day tour - On 14 March 2024, our "Marrakech Medina Half Day" guided tour was excellent. My husband and I had a wonderful - 'once in a lifetime' adventure at a leisurely pace to enjoy every site and place on the tour itinerary. Mohammed, our tour guide was on time to pick us up and with the tour's driver our first visit before crowds of tourists arrived -we had an opportunity to see the Koutoubia Mosque and enjoy hearing Mohammad describe its history. Mohammad is an exceptional and professional tour guide; very courteous and polite; also, his English is very good and his knowledge of all the sights and places on our tour were excellent. Our driver also was excellent providing the safety we expected traveling to all the sights in a lot of congested traffic.

Mohamed is a very friendly, nice and good guide with lots of knowledge about the Morrocan culture, history, architecture, kitchen and people. I really loved to be shown around in the beautiful buildings, the medina and the different souks and of course Djemaa el Fna. Thank you sooo much!
