Marrakesh Medina and Souks Tour 4 Hours

Discover the souks of Marrakech and hire an official tour guide, ensuring a quality tour to discover the authentic side of the medina in Marrakech with its palaces, monuments and souks.

We explore souks of Marrakech as the largest in Morocco and famous globally as some of the most exotic marketplaces to shop in the world. The souks thread north from Jemaa el Fna square and continue in a winding labyrinth until they hit the Musée de Marrakech.

What to explore:

• Open from around 9am to 9pm, the best time to visit is in the cool of the morning, or in the evening when the sunlight seeps through slatted roof shades, illuminating a million golden dust motes. Whether you are actually looking to buy or just looking, you’ll need to fend off dozens of hopeful vendors as you navigate your way through the crowded and noisy alleys. Through the medina, there are technically different souks (markets) but, without a map, they all seem to blend into one at times. Within the souks themselves, there are clear delineations, though. This specially designed tour is the perfect way to explore the souks of Marrakech´s old medina! Bargain for amazing deals and see the famous Djemaa El Fna Square.
  
  

For first-time visitors it can be a bewildering experience. We are here to make it a little easier. Here is our guide to the souks of Marrakech. The better way to discover Marrakech is to walk in its labyrinth narrow streets and souks where you can see a variety of quarters established by craftsmen, according to a structured system of corporation. 

The most famous souk of Marrakech is that one which include the Rue du Souk Samarine which leads into the place Rahba Kedima, where a slave market was once held . There are also a few apothecary shops here and there .

Djemaa El Fna which is the heart of Marrakech , is a traditional meeting place for peasants and merchants from the Sous region, the High atlas and the South. 

In the mornings this large square is crowded with fruit and spice sellers, guerrab with their leather water bottles and metal drinking cups, basket sellers, ironmongers and Barbers. In the afternoons come the Gnaoua dancers descended from former Guinean slaves, musicians, story tellers, snake charmers and entertainers with performing monkeys!
