What to expect
This is the very famous square in Morocco, a place so full of life and activity. Here you can enjoy a show of acrobats, local musicians, snake charmers ... and many more. The square is quiet during the day and it gets busier late in the afternoon and during the evening time.
This synagogue dates back to the end of the 15th century, and was founded by the Sephardim jews who were expeled from Andalucia (Spain & portugal) back then. It's the oldest in Marrakech, and is still actif since its foundation. It also hosts a beautiful museum for jewish history and culture in Morocco.
Miaara Jewish Cemetery
This is a the largest jewish cemetery in Morocco, with more than 20.000 graves. It dates back to 1537, and it lookes nothing like the cemeteries you might be familiar with ! a very special and interesting place to see.
Souk Artisanal
The souks of Marrakech are a "Must-See" part of our tour. They're so colorful and vibrant, with their tiny streets and little work-shops of local artisans, I’m sure you will be amazed of how beautiful the souks are ^^
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
