More Marrakech Day-Trips

Atlas Mountains visit is the best trip even if you are only there for a few days, however there are a number of other worthwhile day-trips. As mentioned earlier, the souks are best done by foot and we can organise a registered guide. To see the gardens and the other sites you can just get in a taxi but another option we offer is a driver for a half-day City Tour to take you around, dropping you off at the main sites. This is around £40 per person for 2 or as little as £30pp for a larger group and is a relaxing way to tick off the main sights including the Saadian Tombs, the Bahia Palace, the Palmeraie and the Majorelle Gardens. Total time allowed is 3 hours and starts at either 9am or 2pm to avoid the hottest part of the day picking up and dropping off at your riad.

We have a number of adrenalin boosting activities such as dune buggying from the Palmeraie (£80pp for half day), paragliding (£120 for 2 hours) and jet-skiing (£120 for an hour). The last two are based above and in the Lake Takerkoust area around 45 minutes south-west of Marrakech. There is also a lovely restaurant close to the lake called Capaldi (0600 02 02 00) which is great for lunches and combining with activities.
