- Saadian Tombs - Discover the 16th-century royal cemetery of the Saadian dynasty. This cemetery is a magnificent resting place for kings who defended their kingdom and made it a paradise on earth. The tombs are a testament to their status and position as 16th-century rulers and guardians of the kingdom’s borders.
- Miaara Jewish Cemetery - Morocco has always been a place where all ethnicities and races coexist. Discover the Jewish heritage in North Africa and trace their origins back to King Solomon.

- Medina of Marrakesh - Stroll through the vibrant, narrow streets of the Medina. You’ll find yourself in an ancient story, moving between chapters and seeing handcrafts that have given Morocco value and fame in Islamic-Andalusian history.

I really enjoyed this... - I really enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide Brahim was super knowledgeable and personable. He also provided what felt like intimate guides particularly within the Souk - providing what felt like more authentic and less 'touristy' insights into the various parts of the souk. I also loved that the group was small. As a solo traveler, I was able to blend in with the group and felt a camaraderie with all.
One small heads up, it did take us about 4 hours and there was a lot of walking! So wear comfortable shoes :-) I would definitely recommend it.

Incredible architecture and history - We were lucky enough to have Fettah as our guide for this experience and he was so knowledgeable about every place we visited. He answered our questions with ease and tailored the experience to suit what we were interested in. We were in a small group with 3 others and it was the perfect size to experience the palaces with. The palaces themselves are stunning and so unique yet following the same building structure. Would definitely recommend to anyone considering visiting the Bahia Palace!

City half day tour - Really enjoyed our tour today with Fatah. Really informative tour that was led at a good pace. We skipped the queues at Bahia Palace and Saadian tombs and were given enough free time at each place. Walked through the souks and take to an argan oil co operative. Definitely worth the money
