History

Jardin Majorelle was created by Jacques Majorelle and later restored and preserved after acquisition by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, who helped open it to the public and establish the Berber Museum.

Conservation

The garden relies on irrigation and careful plant selection to maintain an exotic collection in an arid climate; visitors are asked to stay on paths and minimize water waste.

Adventure tips

Book morning or late-afternoon slotsLight is best early or late for photos and cooler temperatures during the camel segment.

Wear closed-toe shoesGarden paths can be gravelly and the camel mount area may be sandy—stable footwear helps.

Bring cash for small purchasesLocal tea stands and small vendors in the Palmeraie accept cash for tea and tips.

Listen to your handlerFollow instructions when mounting and dismounting camels to avoid slips and keep the group steady.

Recommended gear

Sun hat and sunglasses: Protects against strong sun during garden walks and the Palmeraie ride.
Reusable water bottle: Staying hydrated is important in Marrakech’s dry climate; bottled water may be provided but a refill saves waste.
Comfortable walking shoes: Good grip for gravel paths in the garden and sandy approaches at the camel area.
Light scarf or windbreaker: Keeps dust off your face during the camel ride and provides modesty or sun protection.
