Marrakech: Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs, & Koutoubia Mosque

Step into the vibrant history and culture of Marrakech on an unforgettable journey through its most iconic landmarks, including Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs, and Koutoubia Mosque.

The tour was extremely crowded, which affected the overall experience. We never entered the tombs because the line was too long, so I recommend booking the tombs separately and visiting early in the morning to avoid the crowds. On a positive note, the Bahia Palace was stunning! Its beautiful Moroccan architecture made it a highlight of the visit.

Absolutely beautiful—book it, do it! But what truly made this tour unforgettable was none other than the incredible Abdul! From start to finish, he brought such warmth and energy to the experience. I learned so much about the history of the Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs, and the Medina, all while laughing nonstop. ???????? Abdul has a gift for making history come alive, blending it with humor and tying it to global connections. His good vibes are infectious, and it’s clear from the way people in the Medina greet him that he’s well-loved. He truly made the tour extraordinary, leaving me with memories to last a lifetime. “Easy peasy, lemon squeezy”—his favorite words after delivering fascinating insights. Oh, and thanks to you, Abdul, camels are now my favorite animals! I’m even considering asking my family to bury me in my (white scarf) coffin someday. ???????????? Thank you, Abdul, for changing my perspective and creating an experience I’ll never forget. You are absolutely top-notch! ????

The trip was fantastic, packed with lots of information shared by our guide, Abdu. He was incredibly friendly, funny, and made the experience enjoyable. Be prepared for a long walk in the heat, but it’s worth it to visit some fascinating places and learn about the culture. One thing to note is that the entrance fees were 100Dhm per monument, not 70Dhm as mentioned, so make sure to bring enough cash. Also, while water isn’t free as advertised, it’s very affordable—4Dhm for a small bottle or 6Dhm for a large one. Overall, the tour was excellent, and the entrance fees were still great value for the experience. We had a wonderful time! ????

The tour was exactly as described, and our guide, Hakim, was fantastic! He shared a wealth of historical knowledge and guided us safely through the tombs and two palaces. While you could explore these sites on your own, I highly recommend a tour—Hakim pointed out things we would have missed, ensured quick entry to sites, and provided rich historical context that enhanced the experience. For anyone considering this, I’d suggest choosing the morning tour, as the sites became busier and hotter later in the day. Definitely a worthwhile experience! ????
