Moulay Ismail’s creation was to be much talked of in the East and in Europe, most especially at the French court of King Louis XIV.

Half-day guided visit of Marrakech… Nestled on a plain at the foot of the snow-capped High Atlas Mountains, Marrakech is one of the most alluring cities in Morocco, still surrounded by its original fortifications. The heart of the old town is the Jamaa el Fna square, the huge main square where everything happens: from morning to night it throngs with life, orange, and date sellers ply their trade from stalls, traditional water sellers wander around, snake charmers, musicians, acrobats, and storytellers come and go to please the crowds. And, as night falls, food stalls appear as if by magic, and you can sit down and feast on freshly cooked local dishes. Yet Marrakech has many faces and you will explore the historic Medina of the Almohads, the majesty of the Bahia Palace along with the more modern boulevards and cafes of the French new town.
This visit begins with a guided tour of the Bahia Palace one of the city’s architectural jewels…
We will then proceed to discover the Koutoubia mosque and square, the symbol of the city of Marrakech…
After that we will meander through the souks and medina with our tour guides…to take a first-hand look at the real face of life inside the old medina which has not changed much since the middle ages; the neighborhoods still inhabited by locals, the souks where people of the medina still do their daily shopping and the various and very skilled craftsmen …the materials they use, their shops, tools and much more…
Then continue through Marrakech’s narrow labyrinth streets to one of the Jamaa el Fnaa square’s terraces with an amazing view, taste a mint tea and discover this meeting point of different artists such as musicians, storytellers, and snake charmers.
Some free time to discover the square and do some shopping.
