Sample 3-Day Itinerary — Marrakech
Day 1
Medina & Djemaa el-Fna
8:30 AM
🌿 Garden
Majorelle Garden
Yves Saint Laurent's cobalt-blue botanical garden. Arrive at opening to beat the queues. The YSL Museum is adjacent.
11:00 AM
🏛️ Palace
Bahia Palace
19th-century vizier's palace with stunning carved cedar wood ceilings, painted stucco, and orange tree courtyards.
1:00 PM
🥘 Food
Djemaa el-Fna lunch
The great square at midday — juice vendors, snail soup sellers, and food stalls. Sit upstairs at any café to watch the scene unfold.
3:00 PM
🕌 Gardens
Koutoubia Mosque Gardens
Non-Muslims cannot enter but the rose gardens around the 12th-century minaret are beautiful and peaceful.
5:00 PM
🛍️ Market
Souks of the medina
Enter from north of Djemaa el-Fna. Spice souk, tanneries, leather goods, lamps, and textiles — get lost on purpose.
8:00 PM
🎭 Culture
Djemaa el-Fna at night
The square transforms at sunset — snake charmers, storytellers, musicians, and 100 food stalls. The greatest free show on earth.
Day 2
Tanneries, Palaces & Hammam
9:00 AM
🎨 Craft
Chouara Tanneries
The leather dyeing pits have operated since the 11th century. View from the surrounding leather shop terraces (free).
11:00 AM
🏛️ Ruins
El Badi Palace ruins
Once the most magnificent palace in the world, now glorious ruins. Storks nest on the surviving walls.
1:30 PM
🪦 Heritage
Saadian Tombs
Royal tombs hidden for 200 years, rediscovered in 1917. The marble chamber with 64 columns is breathtaking.
3:30 PM
♨️ Hammam
Traditional Hammam
The Hammam de la Rose or Les Bains de Marrakech for the full kessa (scrub), ghassoul clay mask, and massage.
6:30 PM
🍹 Drinks
Cocktails on a riad rooftop
Every riad in the medina has a rooftop terrace. The view of the medina's pink rooftops at sunset is unforgettable.
8:30 PM
🍽️ Dinner
Dinner at Nomad
Contemporary Moroccan cuisine on a rooftop terrace near the Spice Square. The best modern take on tagine in the city.
Day 3
Essaouira Day Trip
8:00 AM
🚌 Day Trip
Bus to Essaouira
3 hours by bus or 2.5 by shared taxi. Atlantic coastal fortress city — cooler, windier, and completely different from Marrakech.
11:30 AM
🏘️ Old Town
Essaouira Medina
UNESCO-listed blue-and-white medina. Much more relaxed than Marrakech — no hassle, just great art galleries and craft shops.
1:00 PM
🐟 Lunch
Seafood lunch at the port
Choose your fish from the morning catch at the port and have it grilled on the spot. Oualidia oysters are exceptional.
3:00 PM
🏰 Walk
Essaouira ramparts walk
The Portuguese-built sea ramparts with Atlantic views. Jimi Hendrix stayed here in 1969 — the city hasn't changed much.
5:30 PM
🚌 Transit
Return to Marrakech
Back to Marrakech for your final evening. The contrast between the two cities is striking.
9:00 PM
🍽️ Dinner
Final dinner in the medina
La Famille for vegetarian Moroccan (the best), or Café des Épices on the Spice Square for a more casual last night.
