Know More about this tour


Koutoubia Mosque is the largest mosque in Marrakech, Morocco. The mosque is also known by several other names, such as Jami ‘al-Kutubiyah, the Koutoubia Mosque, the Kutubiya Mosque, the Kutubiyyin Mosque, and the Booksellers’ Mosque. It is located in the district of the southwest medina of Marrakech. The mosque is decorated with curved windows, a strip of ceramic, pointed merlons, and decorative arches; it has a large square with gardens and is lit at night. The minaret, 77 meters (253 feet) high, includes an arrow and orbs.
While its nearby neighbor Bab er-Robb acts as the official entrance to the city, Bab Agnaou functions as the main entrance to the Kasbah which is the site of the El Badi Palace, the Saadian Tombs, and the El Mansouria (the kasbah mosque). Bab Aganou is perhaps the most unique of Marrakech’s nineteen gates and its original function, as a royal entrance, is perhaps the reason for this. The corner pieces are decorated with floral decorations extending around a shell is simply exquisite this ornamentation is framed by three panels and on these panels is an inscription from the Quran.
While many monuments and sites are worthy of note, Marrakech, much like Fez, can boast its Jewish and Islamic pasts that bring flavor and appeal to a co-existent country with its beautiful Jewish Quarter.
The palace of Bahia (palace of the beautiful, the brilliant) is a nineteenth-century palace of eight hectares located in Marrakech. It is one of the masterpieces of Moroccan architecture, one of the major monuments of the country’s cultural heritage, and one of the main places of tourism in Morocco.
Explore the different food markets & Souks of Marrakech.
Located a few steps from the Ben Youssef mosque, the medersa of the same name is a Koranic school whose architecture is a jewel of Arab-Andalusian art.Founded by a sultan in the middle of the 14th century to accommodate up to 900 theology students, in the 16th century it became the most important “medersa” (= “school” in Arabic) in the Maghreb. Restored in 1999, this renowned school was still in operation 50 years ago. It is now dedicated to tourist visits.
Jama El Fna is a destination for all magic. Get to know its storytellers, dancers, water sellers, snake and monkey charmers, and the history of Morocco from yesterday and today.
Coming here is like an Aladdin's Cave of carpets. Carpets from floor to ceiling. There wasn't one square inch of space that wasn't taken up with amazing carpets.

    Fabulous tour of the city and markets. Educated and knowledgeable guide with a great driver who made it easy to get to all the sites without backtracking. Loved learning the historical context of the architecture. They planned an excellent meal for us with a stunning view within the medina. Was able to customize a bit. And when they found out I loved the fruit, they altered the route to make sure I was able to get more.

    Cette visite nous a permis de découvrir Marrakech en famille. Le guide adapte le programme en fonction de vos envies. Cela nous a permis de découvrir des endroits cachés dans la médina. Il nous a manqué un peu plus d'explications dans le souk pour que ce soit parfait
