Tour Plan
Jardin Majorelle

The Majorelle Garden was first created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle in 1923. He had built a villa for himself there and expanded his property buying further parcels of land crowded with the painter's botanical collection from all over the world. After the death of Majorelle , the garden was neglected and abandoned until it was discovered by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé who had restored the house, enriched the botanical garden and brought them to their former glory. The villa Studio is now home to a Berber Culture Museam which contains the best of YSL personal collection of Berber items like authentic hand made silver jewelry , antique ceramic, rugs and other pieces of art.
Palácio da Bahia
Stop: 30 minutes - Admission excluded
The Bahía Palace is a late 19th century palace which is most famous for its finest decoration. Its walls feature stucco carved with beautiful Arabic calligraphy , geometric patterns and arabesque designs.

The Koutoubia Minaret is the most famous landmark of Marrakech. It is attached to the Koutoubia mosque which is built in the late 12th century . It's not particularly very high but it towers over the Medina of Marrakech thanks to a long- standing law that forbids any other buildings in the city to rise above the Koutoubia.

At the heart of Marrakech , filling the alleys north of the central square , are the souks , mile after constricted mile of tiny, closet-sized emporia.

GREAT EXPERIENCE! Would highly highly recommend to anyone looking to get a feel of the city. Don’t leave the city without trying this tour
5
Hassan and Mounir are very nice guys! Really trust-worthy, kind and did their best to make our time special.
5
He is so kind, nice person and he knows everything about it!! Allways get the best with him!! Forever I will make a Tour with Hassan!!! For me the best tour ever!! And take really good pictures also!! 😃
5
Hassan was an excellent host! He made sure every detail of our trip was taken care of and to our liking. From shopping, dining, exploring museums, navigating the souks, he was preparing everything for us while we enjoyed ourselves. In particular, he took us to a shoe maker where we were able to purchase beautifully custom made slippers. It felt like a perfect first experience in Marrakech! I highly recommend booking Hassan as your guide.
5
Hassan was an incredible guide. We were picked up in a private luxury van and before we started the tour he asked for our feedback on what we were most interesting in doing. After our private tour of the Jardin Majorelle, the Berber Museum, the YSL Musem, and the Dar el Bacha, he took us to a quiet area of the souks where we were able to see the artisans make their crafts. He also helped us get rhe best deals to buy the specific items we were looking for. It was a truly incredible experience!
5
Visiting the souks is a must in Marrakesh! My husband, two children and I had a wonderful time exploring with Hassan. He tailored the visit to accommodate my two children (6 and 8) making it safe and interesting for them. He helped us making purchases and showed as some wonderful crafts being made. A thoroughly wonderful experience. Thank you!
5
Personable quick and pleasant and went shopping he bargained for us and he knew so many people he got us in to the sight seeings very quickly
5
We had the best time with Hassan! He was so kind and prompt – we always felt safe and learned so much with him as our guide! 10/10 would do another tour with Hassan.
5
Hassan was excellent at guiding me around. He explained the history of the places we went to and made the experience warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!
5
Great day with a tour, lunch and Hammam /massage privately organised by Hassan via Trip Advisor. The souk and cultural tour was well described by Hassan who was friendly and very knowledgable. The hammam/Massage was in Hammam de La Rose – excellent treatment at a reasonable price. Well done Hassan and we can really recommend you coping very well with an elderly couple and flexibility to meet our needs.
5
Hassan was the most delightful person! He was very friendly, hospitable, flexible, and knowledgeable. We loved that you could customize the tour and that it was a private. We wanted to see architecture and the Souks. We went to the Dar El Bacha Museum it was very beautiful and stunning. Words can’t describe the beauty of it. It’s definitely a hidden gem that you must not miss. Hassan gave us a wonderful historical overview while in the museum. We visited some Souks off the main path that we would’ve never found ourselves. It was great having him help us navigate the Medina and Souks as you can easily get lost. I highly recommend using Hassan as your tour guide.
5
Hi , Thanks again for your trust and kids words. You’re always welcome to Marrakech. My best wishes to all of you Kind regards Hassan
5
Amazing! Did worry that this tour would take away some of the thrill and adventure but it really didn’t – instead we got to experience a really authentic trip through the markets! We saw and experienced everything on our ‘hit list’ plus more! Fantastic value for money – from talking to other guests at our hotel it seems a lot of people paid more than us for a taxi ride which often had lots of ‘detours’ to random shops etc on the way! Thank you so much – great experience and memories made!
5
Hi Princess Thanks so much for your trust and support . A special thanks to your kind partner. Please , say hello to your lovely mother who had recommended me to you. Thanks
5
A really insightful 3 hour tour around the souks and secret garden, took us to some amazing hidden spots for shopping and left feeling full of knowledge and a lot more confident with our bearings!
5
Good afternoon Miss Liza Thanks for your trust and generosity. See you next time in Marrakech Morocco
5
Hassan was incredibly helpful with advice on our visit to Marrakesh. Our private tour with him in the city was fascinating and taken to many interesting little streets. He is very polite and has good humour. Highly recommend him.
5
Hi Miss Gabby Thanks again for your time and generosity. See you next time in Morocco
5
We had an amazing day with Hassan touring around Marrakech. It was VIP treatment all around. He tailored the day and experiences around our family and knowing when the kids needed a siesta and how to make it fun and interesting for them as well. Highly recommend Hassan!!
5
Hi Thanks for your trust and support. I had learnt a lot from you. See you soon in Marrakech Thanks
5
If I could re-do my trip to Marrakech, I would book a tour every day with Hassan! He was incredible. Candidly – our first day there, I felt out of sorts. We walked through the souks just getting around, and everything felt so chaotic.
Hassan literally made me feel so much more at peace with our trip, and he helped us see so much of the beauty that comes in the Medina.
I can’t thank him enough. His communication was excellent, and he was so courteous to us and all others around him.
He offered advice and tips for things outside of the tour as well.
If you are reading this review – don’t wait any longer. Book with Hassan now!
5
Hi Sir Vincent Thanks so much for your kind words. You’re welcome any time you come back to Marrakech. Thanks
5
Hassan is a great guide – knowledgeable, amusing and going the extra yard. He chose the most interesting sights and helped us appreciate the culture. We all enjoyed our time in his friendly company. He warned us away from the bad stuff and gave us good recommendations for shopping and restaurants!
5
Hi Thanks so much for your trust and support. Thanks for your kind words. See you soon in Morocco
5
Hassan was an absolutely wonderful guide for our first time in Marrakesh. He was incredibly knowledgeable and quickly crafted us a tour plan based on the interests we communicated to him the same morning. He’s an incredibly funny and charming professional, and is evidently very respected within the community. If you are inclined to shop, Hassan also knows the best store locations depending on what you intend to purchase, with reliable prices and quality. I would absolutely recommend Hassan to anybody visiting Marrakesh, and only wish that we could have gone on another tour with him!
5
Good afternoon Thanks again for all your trust and kindness. See soon in Marrakech Thanks
5
The absolute best tour! Hassan showed us the best places to shop and was an extremely knowledgeable guide! Can’t recommend enough!
5
Hi Thanks again for your trust and generosity. My best wishes to all of you Thanks
5
A fantastic tour. This tour won’t disappoint! We had an excellent tour guide, Hassan, who was very knowledgeable. He gave us lots of historical and cultural information and was more than happy to answer all of our questions. In temps of 114 degrees, having a driver with a luxury vehicle waiting with AC after we enjoyed stops to look at local products and sights, was one highlight of this top notch service. He curated a tour based on our specific requests and it exceeded our expectations. He also offered recommendations of other things to do and places to see or eat. Definitely a must when visiting Marrakech. He was highly recommended to us by a previous client we met at our resort and I will do the same and recommend him to anyone I know visiting Marrakech.
5
Hi Miss Joya Thanks so much for your generosity and support. See you next time in Morocco Thanks
5
Hasan is simply the best. Here are just a few reasons why. He’s responsive. Within hours of receiving our inquiry ( he was recommended by a couple at the hotel) we were booked. Hasan is attentive. He listened to what we were all interested in, pleasing 3 very different people is no small feat. We traveled in comfort and received the best service because of his relationships with vendors. (Carpets, slippers, caftans, Moroccan home interiors etc…)When we needed more time than the 4 hours allotted, he continued our tour an additional 5 hours (that’s how good he is!), Hasan is knowledgeable, and not in a reading from a script kind of way. Any question you have, he has the answer. Last and certainly not least, his love of people, his country, and culture truly shine through. Thank you sincerely Hasan. Oh and the the transportation service is amazing, especially in the 114 degree weather.
5
Hi Miss Marlena Thanks so much for your trust and generosity. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills with us. You’re always welcome whenever you can. Thanks
5
I cannot say enough about Hasan and his tour services! He is knowledgeable, kind, earnest and overall, a first-class tour guide! He guided me and my friends on a wonderful tour of the highlights of Marrakech. Every detail was thought through—from choosing the most amazing shops (based on our specific asks) to water bottles to lunch to AC private van waiting for us every step of the way. There is no better experience than learning from Hasan and his insights of the city he calls home. I would leave him (and his driver) 6 stars if I could!

Hi Mrs Nadia Jones Thanks so much for your trust and generosity. Thanks so much for sharing your time and knowledge about your culture and success in your life. See you soon in Morocco with your son and family Kind regards Hassan
