Marrakech at a glance
Marrakech, Morocco is a colourful, exotic location that surrounds you with history and culture from the moment you arrive. With centuries of history behind it, Marrakech holidays blend old and new almost effortlessly. Spend at least a day in the Medina, or old town, walking through the bazaars, watching the snake charmers and haggling with vendors. Soak up the atmosphere, which is an intoxicating mixture of African, European and Arab. Listen to the sound of a thousand tongues and watch smoke drift lazily away from a brazier where the smell of roasting chicken will make your mouth water. Marrakech delights all the senses. Along with the seemingly endless warmth and sunshine, Marrakech is the perfect holiday destination.
Great Outdoors
Marrakech is a large city, but just outside the city gates lies miles and miles to explore. Expand your horizons and pack up for one of the many walking tours, either around the city itself or on one of the treks offered by companies like Morocco Explored. See areas that most visitors never get to see, and take the tour at your own pace. Alternatively, jump on board an all-terrain vehicle and journey into a palmgrove or into the desert. See the richness of the area’s produce as it is being harvested and bring back some of the freshest fruits and nuts to nibble on later. No matter how you go, your Marrakech holiday is not complete without enjoying the surrounding countryside for at least one day.
Moroccan Cuisine
Morocco has a long, rich history of high cuisine. From the sheiks that demanded only the best, to merchants who had to create inviting dishes to survive financially, the best of the area’s foods have been blended for centuries to create incomparable dishes. Holidays in Marrakech can include the opportunity to take cooking classes, lasting anywhere from a couple of hours to several days, depending on what you would like to indulge in. Learn about the use of spices in the local foods, create delicious salads and tagines (stews), and then enjoy the fruits of your labour - literally! This is one memory of your Marrakech holiday that you will be able to enjoy over and over again for years to come.
