Things To Do
Souks & Medina
Whether you’re hunting photo opportunities or the perfect souvenir, a visit to Marrakesh’s warren of souks is a must, but it’s easy to get lost in these colorful outdoor markets! Click on the link if you'd like a guided city tour!
Jardin Majorelle
Jardin Majorelle has to be one of the most intimate and romantic gardens in the world. A contrast to the oppressive heat, ochre red, noisy, dusty, frenetic activity of the city the garden is an oasis of cool green, shade, gently moving water with shots of the most vibrant and arresting colours. Please note: It is essential to pre-book tickets online to avoid disappointment. Remember, it will be the school holidays, so Marrakesh is expected to be very busy!

El Badi Palace
El Badi Palace in Marrakesh is a stunning example of Moroccan architecture and culture. Built in the 16th century, this palace is a testament to the grandeur of the Saadian Dynasty and the beauty of Moroccan art and design.
Chez Lamine Hadj Mustapha Jemaa El Fna
If we had to narrow it down and pick one place to recommend you eat at in Marrakesh, it would be Chez Lamine Hadj Mustapha restaurant, just off Jemaa el Fnaa. Chez Lamine is different in that it offers a typical, local atmosphere and is more notably famous with locals. The legendary Mustapha is known for his legacy in quality lamb in all styles of cooking. Just a heads up, they're only open for lunch! So be sure to swing by early.
Cafe Restaurant Dar L'hssira
We stumbled upon this hidden gem by chance and we were pleasantly surprised. Restaurant Dar L'hssira is a charming, family-run spot tucked away in the heart of Marrakesh, offering an authentic taste of Moroccan hospitality. Whether your stopping for lunch or indulging in a leisurely dinner, Dar L'hssira delivers a setting that feels like home! The restaurant offers generous portions of freshly prepared food at very reasonable price!
Al Baraka
If guests are looking for a more relaxed and romantic dinner setting, we recommend Al baraka! It's cozy atmosphere, and traditional Moroccan decor, its the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring.
