See Marrakech’s medina, palaces, and Majorelle Garden, then drive into the Atlas to visit Berber villages and the Ourika Valley waterfalls. This private two‑day package blends cultural highlights with a short mountain trek and authentic local encounters.

The first light over Jemaa el‑Fnaa shifts the medina from sleeping to electric: vendors lift shutters, spice stalls send cinnamon and cumin into the air, and the Koutoubia’s minaret watches the city come alive. On day one, a private guide leads through narrow alleys, past Bab Agnaou and the Mellah, and into the quiet courtyards of Bahia Palace and Majorelle Garden — each site a different voice in Marrakech’s long story.
