MARRAKESH

The Marrakesh Experience

 

At the heart of the it all is the square, Jemâa Lefna, and the surrounding old city, the Medina, and then the Palmeraie. The square is the stage for a long-established ritual in which shifting circles of onlookers gather around groups of acrobats, drummers, pipe musicians, dancers, story-tellers and comedians.

The Medina, with its endless narrow streets, is a shopping haven where you can find the finest rugs and slippers. The city's architectural attractions are immense, with the basins of the Agdal and Menara gardens, the delicate Granada-style carving of the Saadian Tombs and, above all, the Koutoubia Minaret. A city of history, culture, a trendy city, elected by the fashion world as the place to be in winter and spring, with unique Moroccan and international restaurants, trendy bars, casinos and nightlife.

Marrakesh will seduce you with its multiple faces, colours, with its friendly people. A place where you will experience the luxury of sunbathing in your own private riyad, the famous townhouses in the Medina, or in your villa in the Palmeraie, and skiing the same day in the nearby Atlas mountains.

 

Excursions and activities

The Toubkal National Park

  At less than an hour from Marrakesh, the Atlas mountains offers you a range of unique activities. The Atlas will allow you discover the unique natural beauty, rural souks (traditional markets), local monuments (Tinmel Mosk), pottery and handcraft. The scenery of the Ourika valley and Asni offers an opportunity for nice drives, horse-back riding, trekking, climbing, including the Mount Toubkal (which culminates at more than 4,100 meters), birdwatching, trout fishing in the Nfis River, skiing in the Oukaimeden ski station and heli-skiing. There are as well some interesting Mountain restaurants, offering a good opportunity for experimenting the local berber cuisine.

Essaouira

 

For those more attracted by the Atlantic ocean, they'll be surprised to drive south two hours and find Mogador, now Essaouira. Essaouira is known by its blue-shuttered houses, art galleries, wood workshops and boat builders, and is a very good birdwatching and windsurfing spot.

Mogador became a heaven for the hippies in the sixties and has been associated with some art movements. Its Gnaoua festival in June each year is the annual musical event that gathers thousands of fans from all over the world.

Ouzoud Falls

 

At only a few hours from Marrakesh, the Ouzoud falls are a nice one-day excursion that will allow you to see one of the nice sceneries of Morocco.

Close to the falls, the famous Bin El Ouidane lake is ideal for lovers of nature and waterski.

Dining

Marrakesh offers a wide range of Moroccan restaurants to discover the refinement of Moroccan gastronomy. There are as well many international and trendy restaurants.

In Marrakesh, ask for the famous Tangia, the local specialty.

Golf

 

The scenery of golfing in Marrakesh is quite unique. You can enjoy golf in the midst of palm groves with a fairytale view of the snow-capped Atlas.

Golf was first played in Marrakesh eighty years ago and today the Moroccan city has several golf courses, making it a popular destination for golfing holidays.

The Marrakesh Royal Golf Club is the oldest golf. Winston Churchill, David Lloyd George and Ike Eisenhower have all played here.

Shopping

  The traditional souks, the specialist antique shops or the traditional countryside markets can provide you with good shopping opportunities. The Medina of Marrakesh has a good representation of the Moroccan traditional craft: wood, work, rugs, slippers, pottery, fabrics, jewellery, antique arms and house linens.
