Marrakech is the vibrant heart of Morocco offering an amazing holiday experience. As long as you're not expecting modern hotels and Michelin rated restaurants, Marrakech will leave you spellbound. In no particular order, here are some of the most popular things to do in Marrakech:

Jemaa El Fna

Jemaa El Fna is what most people think of when Marrakech is mentioned. This famous square is the quintessential Marrakech experience where all manner or traders and performers gather. It's a carnival atmosphere and a real delight. Although perhaps not one for the feint hearted.

Mamounia

Mamounia is not just one of the city's best hotels, it's also one of it's most popular attractions. Built in 1923, the building was the palace of the crown prince of Morocco before transforming into one of the finest hotels in Europe. Even if you’re not staying here, you can still wander round the impressive grounds and dine at the delicious restaurants.


Koutoubia Mosque

The Koutoubia Mosque is only 77m high but because of the low skyline of Marrakech’s, the mosque towers above the city. The attractive minaret is the first thing you'll see when you approach the city from the airport. The Mosque is not open to non-Muslims but everyone is allowed to appreciate its beauty from outside.


Bahia Palace

Bahia Palace is a beautiful palace on the edge of the or Jewish Quarter. With lovely paved courtyards, pavilions and reception halls, this impressive building is one of the most visited attractions in Marrakech.
