Your adventure begins with a warm welcome from your local guide, who will offer valuable insights and tips before we set off to explore some of the city's most treasured landmarks and hidden corners.

Koutoubia Mosque

We begin at the Koutoubia Mosque, the spiritual heart of Marrakech. Although non-Muslims cannot enter, we’ll admire its magnificent Almohad architecture from the outside, including its 77-meter-high minaret that dominates the skyline and serves as a historic symbol of the city.

Medersa Ben Youssef

We continue to the Ben Youssef Madrasa, one of the most exquisite examples of Moroccan craftsmanship. Once an Islamic college for over 800 students, this 14th-century gem invites you to marvel at its intricate zellij mosaics, delicately carved cedar wood, and ornate stucco reliefs—a true masterpiece of Islamic art and design.
