Marrakech is an intoxicating city where the best activities center on a whirlwind of sensory and cultural immersion, beginning with the UNESCO-listed Medina, a maze of alleyways housing the vibrant Souks for endless shopping and bargaining. The beating heart of the city is the Jemaa el-Fnaa square, transforming nightly into a magical spectacle of street food, storytellers, and performers, while moments of architectural tranquility can be found at the iconic Koutoubia Mosque, the exquisitely tiled Bahia Palace, and the stunning Ben Youssef Madrasa. For a peaceful escape from the hustle, visitors flock to the cobalt-blue tranquility of the Jardin Majorelle and often finish their trip by taking an adventurous day trip to the majestic Atlas Mountains or the Agafay Desert.
