Highlights of a Free Tour in Marrakech
Throughout this vibrant city, you can find everything from modern buildings to medieval structures. However, Marrakech is particularly known for landmarks such as the wonderfully vibrant Jemaa el-Fna Square, the Medina narrow passages, and the city’s rich history and ancient palaces. In particular, the beautifully decorated 150-room Bahia Palace is a must-see for those joining a Marrakech Free Walking Tour. The same goes for the Majorelle Garden—adorned with beautiful and exotic plants, fountains, and even an Islamic Art Museum, this garden offers prime photo opportunities.

Things to Do in Marrakech
Marrakech has been a safe haven for painters, singers, writers, and artists from all walks of life for decades. The Yves Saint Laurent Museum is proof of how a remarkable top fashion designer fell in absolute love with the city. After visiting this interesting, cosmopolitan place, we recommend spending an afternoon walking through the secret passages of the Medina. Why? Souks, the local marketplaces, are the heart of Marrakech. They offer visitors an authentic Moroccan shopping experience, as well as real insights into local lifestyle, production processes, and business culture. You can purchase items like homemade crafts, jewelry, clothing, tea, make-up, and other souvenirs. Finish the day off by dining in one of Marrakech’s exotic restaurants and sample the rabbit tagine, a popular local cuisine. If you decide to dine in Morocco, remember it’s impolite to refuse meat if it is offered in a meal, or to handle food with your left hand!
