How long is the tour and what are the three main stops?

The tour lasts approximately 1 hour. The three main stops are Majorelle Gardens (featuring 3,000 exotic plants), the Berber Museum (200 m² exhibition space with regional artefacts), and the historic Marrakesh ramparts (19 km of walls, some dating to the 12th century).

Is the Berber Museum separate or inside the gardens?

The Berber Museum is located within the Majorelle Gardens complex, making it convenient to explore both in sequence.

When were the Majorelle Gardens created and who designed them?

The Majorelle Gardens were created in 1931 by Jacques Majorelle, a French painter. The gardens have since become one of Marrakesh's most iconic botanical destinations.

How old are the ramparts and how extensive are they?

The ramparts surrounding Marrakesh's medina span approximately 19 kilometres in total length. The oldest sections date from the 12th century, while additional expansions were made to the south and north in the 16th century. The walls stand over 9 metres high and are 2 metres thick.

What is the price and is transport included?

The tour starts from EUR 62 per person. Your confirmation will include specific details about meeting point, transport arrangements, and any inclusions.

What should I bring and when is the best time to visit?

Bring comfortable walking shoes, sun protection (hat and sunscreen), and water. Visit early morning to avoid crowds and heat. Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) are ideal; avoid peak summer if possible.

our guide Samir had so many stories and the view from the old fort ramparts was the highlight, and fine even with my dodgy knee, and 2 solid hours of history, tbh

our guide Pedro sorted everything for us and the carvings on the main temple wall was the highlight, and good as a half-day option, and covered 3 sites in one go.
