Recommend to visit Very nice place, reasonably priced for tourists too. you can easily spend there 1hr take time to walk and read, sit in the garden. Unfortunately the display descriptions are NOT in English so you may need to use translator app if you want to know what it says or have a guide with you. Nice place, lots to see. Watch in the garden for tortoises we counted 3 of them but might be more.
Renata H — Google review
Worth visiting. For 30-40 DH you can visit the contemporary museum as well as the Kasbah and it’s gardens. Garden is a little gem in the city centre.
Robin B — Google review
Beautiful historic place, well presented chronologically. The garden is pleasant with many plants, however, signs with the plant and tree names would have been useful, it's a shame there weren't any. Visited in early Sept and there was no café nor shop to be seen.
Saflo — Google review
Worth the visit. It takes 30min to see but you can spend more time. The gardens are beautiful and they have good pieces of different history periods. Unfortunately it’s only in French and Arabic, we would strongly encourage them to add English. I would go back if so to be able to understand everything. The ticket was 30 dirhams each. The staff was very kind and flexible to let us visit everything even though they were closing
Jessica S — Google review
Very beautiful, good historical background, very well-organized, and you can enter both museums (Kasbah and Contemporary) with the same ticket.

Dar Tanger Medina is the old city of Tangier, characterized by a maze of narrow alleyways that lead down to the ocean. The central square, Petit Socco, is a hub of activity where locals gather to socialize and play games. Once frequented by famous literary figures like Paul Bowles and Jack Kerouac, the medina offers glimpses of the Bay of Tangier through its winding alleys and hosts vibrant market stalls selling various goods.
Great location in the medina. We had twin room with ensuite bathroom. Room was clean & had everything we needed for our short stay in Tangier. Breakfast was fresh every morning. Staff were friendly & very helpful. Great view from the roof terrace all be it up a spiral staircase. Would definitely come back for a short stay in Tangier.
Yvonne K — Google review
The staff were friendly and nice. Location was ok – in the centre of medina. Room description: dark, ugly, with a smelly bathroom which looks like a prison. The bed was too soft, I had a back pain after sleeping on it. If you don’t care about this and your main purpose is to save some money on accommodation – book it. Maybe you can handle 1-2 nights. Small breakfast in the terrace with a view included.
Summer S — Google review
The hotel was a traditional Hotel. The rooms was ok , clean and warm. The only problem was the outside toilet. Difficult through the night or for shower.. The hotel was in the centre of the old town Medina. For me too much traffic and noise but i didn't know about the life rhythms in the old town. The breakfast was basic but the choices of bread really good ! The staff was really very kind and helpful ! Was a nice stay in a good price.
Anna K — Google review
Good location, kind and attentive staff, good and plentiful breakfast on the terrace. Rooms are okay - clean and affordable. Only issue really was we were in the room adjacent to the lobby and the first floor above the Medina alley, so it was quite noisy.

If you want an authentic, spotlessly clean hotel in a prime location 👌 the Tanger Medina is perfect for you. Nothing is too much trouble for the amazing staff. They are so special and kind. Breakfast is served on the roof terrace. It will take your breath away. Soothing background music and delicious fresh food and spectacular views of the Casbah and to the harbour. We are hoping to return one day 🙏 Right in the heart of the medina and the atmosphere is pure Tangiers.

The view from lighthouse and sunset is absolutely magical. The garden and Cafe is so beautiful. Overall I believe it's the major highlight of my visit to Tangier.

Cap Spartel is a must-visit spot just outside Tangier. The views are breathtaking, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea. The lighthouse adds a historic charm, and the surrounding gardens are peaceful and well kept. 💡 Tip: Best time to visit is late afternoon to enjoy the sunset. Bring some water or snacks if you don’t plan to eat at the café.

Cap Spartil is truly a hidden gem! The natural beauty of the place is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the coastline and the surrounding landscape. The lighthouse adds a unique charm to the location, offering panoramic vistas that make it a perfect spot for relaxation and exploration. The peaceful atmosphere, combined with the fresh air and scenic surroundings, makes it an unforgettable destination. Whether you're looking for a quiet escape or a place to connect with nature, Cap Spartil is the ideal place. Highly recommended!
Reem M — Google review
Beautiful! 🤩 Excellent panoramic views from the top of the lighthouse where you can see the joining of the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea! Entry fee to get in to the lighthouse, museum, and garden, though the gardens were unfortunately closed while we were visiting. It’s a beautiful 4 km/2.5 mile walk/drive/bike ride between here and Hercules Cave. For those without a car, In Drive app is probably your best bet for visiting from Tangier. If you are friendly with the driver they might even bring you back for a good price and give you some history on the area.

Hercules Caves

Mentioned on

Nature & Parks
Historical place
Hercules Caves, located on a promontory between two Atlantic beaches, is steeped in legend and history. According to myth, Hercules rested here before his 11th labor to steal the golden apples from the Hesperides Garden. The cave's spectacular seaside opening is said to resemble the African continent and dates back to the Neolithic period. It is believed that Phoenicians cut this opening and Berbers extracted millstones from its walls over many centuries.
My Visit to the Hercules Cave in Tangier 🇲🇦 I had an amazing time visiting the Hercules Cave in Tangier — it was truly a magical experience! The entrance fee was 80 MAD for foreigners, and I believe it’s around 60 MAD for locals (though I’m not entirely sure). Honestly, I think it’s beautiful that locals get a special rate — they’re the heart of this land, and if it were up to me, souvenirs would be free for them! They truly deserve it all — may God bless them always 💛 The natural views around the cave were breathtaking, and walking inside the cave felt like stepping into a dream. Just… wow wow! I absolutely loved every moment of it. It’s definitely worth a visit, and I hope I get the chance to come back again soon. Highly recommended if you’re in Tangier! 💫

Grottes d’Hercule in Morocco is a stunning natural cave overlooking the Atlantic Ocean near Tangier. Famous for its legendary connection to Hercules, the site features dramatic rock formations, a natural opening shaped like Africa, and breathtaking sea views. Ideal for sightseeing and photography.
عبدالرزاق ا — Google review
Visiting the Hercules Caves was such a unique and memorable experience. The place has a beautiful natural feel, and the famous opening shaped like the map of Africa is even more impressive in person. Walking through the cave, you can really feel the history and the atmosphere — it’s simple but very captivating. The area around the caves is also lovely, with amazing ocean views that make the whole visit even more special. It’s definitely a spot worth seeing if you’re in Tangier, and a great place to take photos and enjoy the scenery. Highly recommended!
Bshayer H — Google review
If it’s part of your tour or along your route, it’s worth a quick stop. The cave itself is beautiful, especially the view where the water flows through the opening—quite a unique sight. While the surrounding area is largely developed for tourism, it can still be enjoyable, especially for families. The flat terrain and minimal stairs make it very kid-friendly and easy to explore. Great for a short, scenic break and to pick up some souvenirs. Must visit this place
Sharmili R — Google review
One of the most hyped up tourist spots in Tangier. it's a small space with minimal information, so do some reading before you go. It's overpriced for what is offered. We paid 80drh each (roughly £7.50-£8) for a quick 10 mins inside. there is another small section (i think it was called a gallery) for a separate cost In all honesty the cave is not big, There was a barrier blocking some of it so i don't know if that part is ever opened up to the public. the hype is mainly for the opening in the rocks where you can see the sea and rock formation is the shape of Africa. Everything i read online about a path etc, I did not see. If part of the cave was closed, they should have charged less. As a local citizen you can get the ticket for 30 dirham. Not really impressed with a cost that can't be justified
Roshni S — Google review
The history of this cave given by our guide was fascinating. I was surprised how large the cave was and how clean and well preserved it was as well. A very interesting and worthwhile visit.

The name Asilah conjures up images of meandering streets adorned with pristine, white houses sporting freshly painted walls that shimmer under the sun. The sound of the nearby Mediterranean Sea can be heard as it gently laps against the town's shores, reminiscent of coastal towns in Cadiz. Renowned for its immaculate medina, known as Arcila, Asilah is meticulously cared for by its residents who treat every street and Neo-Arabic building like a valuable treasure.

Quite overpriced for the kind of stay you are offered. The location was good. Parking underground was also a good option, but there is quite a hassle to call for someone to open the door everytime you want to exit. Also the sea view wasn't much of a view. Some of the staff were quite impolite. You have to track one of them down each time you need any necessities like towels.

I really can not understand why Moroccans just want to make money without improving the quality service. We booked for 3 persons and we got an apartment with 2 single beds. We asked the owner and said the third person can sleep on the couch. The toilets were not clean, the kitchen equipments were dirty and dusty. Come on it is a modern apartment so keep it clean. Just avoid that place please.

Hassan Tower

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Hassan Tower is a renowned 12th-century minaret in Rabat, Morocco. It was intended to be the world's largest minaret but remained unfinished after the death of its commissioner, Almohad emperor Yacoub al-Mansour. The red sandstone tower is adorned with hundreds of columns and stands opposite the mausoleum for King Mohammed V. The site also features white Moorish arches and intricate zellij patterns on its interior walls.
This is definitely worth a visit if you are in Rabat the tower itself is great with the Roman columns stretching before it. There is also the Mausoleum, which is beautifully ornate and decorated. It is free to enter and you can spend some Time chilling and sitting in the shade.
Andrew M — Google review
Excellent tourist site in Morocco. This landmark destroyed during an earthquake in Portugal that demolished this structure as well in Morocco. Some of the boundary wall remains. A separate mosque is now constructed to offer prayer.
Rajat C — Google review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A breathtaking symbol of Rabat must-see! Visiting the Hassan Tower was one of the highlights of my trip to Rabat. The minaret dates from the late 12th century and was intended as part of an enormous mosque commissioned by Sultan Yaʿqūb al-Mansur work halted after his death, leaving the striking 44-metre tower and the rows of marble columns that mark the mosque’s original footprint. The setting is dramatic: the tower’s red stone rises above a wide, open esplanade dotted with column stumps that make for superb photos and a real sense of the scale that was planned. The intricate Almohad decorations on the tower and the calm, airy space around it give the whole complex a powerful, timeless atmosphere. It’s perfectly placed next to the Mausoleum of Mohammed V and the beautifully kept gardens you can easily visit both in one trip and the contrast between the medieval monument and the modern royal mausoleum is fascinating. Entry to the site is straightforward (many visitors report it as free), and the area feels safe and well maintained. Practical tips: aim for early morning or late afternoon for the best light and fewer crowds; wear respectful clothing if you plan to visit the mausoleum; allow around 45–90 minutes to wander, photograph and take in the views across Rabat. There are often local guides nearby if you’d like historical context. Overall I loved the Hassan Tower, it’s historic, photogenic and peaceful, and an essential stop when exploring Rabat’s imperial quarter. Highly recommended for history lovers, photographers and anyone wanting a memorable slice of Moroccan heritage.

The Hassan Tower and the Mausoleum of Muhammad V are two of Rabat's most important attractions. Beautiful sights to see. The Hassan Tower, a famous red sandstone structure – the remains of an unfinished minaret from the 12th century.

Hassan means Beautiful. So it’s a beautiful tower planned to be a mosque. But because of earthquake, it was collapsed and pillars and part of the wall remained. Hijri Year is 355 days, so you can find 355 pillars, The father king mausoleum Mohammad V, newly mosque and a museum for royal family only. Soldiers riding horses near entrance gate. Pleasant visit.

Unfortunately, I only got to see Hassan Tower from the outside, but it was still absolutely worth the visit. The structure is stunning and the scale is impressive, even from a distance. The surrounding plaza with its rows of stone columns gives you a real sense of the unfinished grandeur that was planned here. It is a peaceful area with the Mausoleum of Mohammed V nearby and views over the river. The red stone contrasts beautifully with the sky, making it a great stop for photos. Even if you only have time to see it from the outside, it is one of Rabat’s most iconic and meaningful landmarks.

The area is peaceful and very well maintained, with plenty of space to walk around and take photos. From the site, you can also spot the nearby Mausoleum of Mohammed V, which adds even more depth to the visit. It’s one of those places that’s both historically significant and photogenic — perfect for a short cultural stop while exploring Rabat. You don’t need a lot of time here — 20 to 30 minutes is plenty to take in the sights, admire the architecture, and capture some great photos. It’s more about appreciating the beauty and atmosphere than spending hours exploring.

The Mausoleum of Mohammed V is a significant site in Morocco, featuring the final resting place of King Mohammed V and the tombs of King Hassan II and Prince Abdallah. The mausoleum showcases elegant Alaouite architecture with a striking green dome set against white marble.
The Mausoleum of Mohammed V in Rabat is a masterpiece of Moroccan architecture. The white marble, the intricate zellij tiles, and the cedar wood carvings reflect the country’s rich heritage. The atmosphere inside is calm, respectful, and very moving. Guards in traditional attire add to the solemnity and beauty of the place.

The Mausoleum of Mohammed V is a truly magnificent site and one of Rabat’s most iconic landmarks. The architecture is stunning — a perfect blend of Moroccan craftsmanship and Islamic artistry, with intricate tilework, marble floors, and beautifully carved ceilings. Inside, the atmosphere is serene and respectful, honoring King Mohammed V and his sons, King Hassan II and Prince Abdallah. The site is well maintained, and the guards in traditional uniforms add a ceremonial touch to the experience. A must-visit for anyone exploring Morocco’s royal and historical heritage.

This is where Mohammed V was buried and available to visit. The Mausoleum was designed by a Vietnamese and it has semblance of the Taj Mahal with white marbles and shapes. The place has many guards and they are friendly for photos. One of the best part of this place is the guards on horses and their exchanges. A nice ceremony if you can catch that changing of the horse guards.

Interesting place, definitely worth a visit. I was impressed by the guards in their traditional uniforms. Unfortunately, we visited on a foggy and rainy day. Outside, there are street vendors who sell fresh orange juice and roasted nuts. The architecture is beautiful and fascinating both inside and out. There’s a huge, impressive fountain outside, though it’s fenced off and visibility is limited.

I only got to see the Mausoleum of Mohammed V from the outside, but it was still an unforgettable stop. The white marble, green-tiled roof, and intricate carvings make it one of the most beautiful buildings in Rabat. Even from a distance, you can feel the importance of the place and the care put into every detail. It sits right next to Hassan Tower, and together they create one of the most striking sights in the city. The area feels peaceful and dignified, with guards in traditional uniforms and wide open courtyards that add to the atmosphere. Definitely worth visiting, even if you only view it from the outside.

The tomb of Mohammed V Ben Youssef is a building designed by Vietnamese engineer Eric Van Town, built opposite the Hassan Silo on Yacoub Mansour Almohad Square in the Moroccan capital Rabat. It was built on a height opposite the city of Salé overlooking the Abu Ruqraq River and close to its Atlantic estuary. The construction of the tomb of Mohammed V took about ten years, as it began in 1962 to lay the closing brick in 1971. The mausoleum is registered as an Islamic archaeology in accordance with Article 4 of the Antiquities Law of the League of Arab States at the Third Archaeology Conference held in Fez. It was also on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2012. The idea of building the mausoleum was to commemorate the late King of Morocco, Mohammed V. The mausoleum contains the graves of the late Kings Mohammed V bin Yusuf and King Hassan II, who was buried at the mausoleum after his death in 1999, as well as the tomb of Prince Abdullah.

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Chellah is a historic site located on the grounds of an ancient citadel, featuring Roman ruins and royal tombstones. The area covers about 3.5 km2 and includes the ruins of a walled Roman/Arab city, a medieval citadel overlooking the estuary, and the Ville Nouvelle developed under French Protectorate government. The site offers a glimpse into history with its ancient Roman and medieval ruins surrounded by lush gardens.
The Chellah is one of my most favorite places to take visitors. It's peaceful, full of history, and never crowded. I would highly recommend doing the audio tour and stopping for lunch at the Cafe inside.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A must-visit gem in Rabat! Cellah (Chellah) is one of the most fascinating and peaceful places I’ve ever visited in Morocco. The moment you enter through the grand gate, you’re surrounded by a mix of Roman and Islamic history that’s simply breathtaking. The ancient ruins, beautifully weathered walls, and ornate tombs tell countless stories of Rabat’s past. The gardens are lush and full of life storks nesting on the old minarets add a truly magical touch. It’s quiet, well-maintained, and perfect for those who want to slow down and take in the city’s heritage away from the crowds. The views from the site are also stunning, especially at sunset when the light hits the ruins. You can feel the layers of history here. Roman remains blending seamlessly with medieval Moroccan architecture. Whether you’re a history lover, a photographer, or simply someone who appreciates peaceful and authentic places, Cellah is an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Rabat!

A lovely historical city with Mauritanian, Roman, and a few other civilizations contributing to this place. The place has some Roman ruins, a very small museum, a mosque, some baths, a lovely garden, and residentials. The place also has a coffee shop, a restaurant, and a gifts shop. Tickets are bought at the entrance by cash or card. They have ample parking onsite. Timings of the place differ around the year. The restaurant onsite remains open until after the ancient city closes, and has a separate entrance. Expect to spend 1 hour exploring the place.

Absolutely loved this place. The mix of Roman ruins and later Moroccan architecture makes Chellah one of the most atmospheric sites in Rabat. My highlights were wandering through the crumbling walls covered in greenery, watching the storks nesting on top of old minarets, and hearing nothing but wind and birds. It feels calm and untouched, almost like stepping back in time. The gardens are beautiful, and the sense of history here is powerful with layers of civilizations in one spot. Bring comfortable shoes and visit in the late afternoon for soft light and fewer crowds. A must-see for anyone who enjoys ancient ruins and quiet, magical places.

I visited at 5 AM. The woman and men were walking to open there shops. A few fruit vendors were already open for a long day. It was mostly women in hijab. There are no official laws in the Constitution of the Maldives that require women to cover their heads, but Maldivian women commonly wear a hijab and niqab in public. I brought a gold scarf from WalMart, Penticton, and long smock from Gr Britain. I felt better in this dress as I visited the Hassan II Mosques.

Disrespectful, arrogant and service. We came to ask why we can't enter the mosque that was built by our contributes as Moroccans outside of Prayers hours they said the mosque is closed after each prayer wait until the next prayer or go buy a tickets with illogical prices to access the courtyard! This is a House od God this not an amusement park. And you are a foundation not a profitable organization. And when wanted to make an official complaint he gave us a white printing paper and pen nothing official... So unfortunate for such a great mosque.
Mehdi E — Google review
The beautiful building of the Foundation cost a lost of people's money but the Foundation is not doing enough for people. The mosque lacks green spots, trees and flower plants in the front lawn. The outside lawn floor is all marble and gets very hot in summer but there is no shade, no trees, no flowers, except in the corridors. The foreign visitors pay 120-Dirhams per person for a quick short visit inside, through basement. A lot of maintenance work needs to be done. Please beautify the outside lawn. Thanks.

Morocco Mall

Shopping mall
Shopping
Morocco Mall is a prominent and luxurious shopping destination sprawled across 24 acres. It features a traditional souk, an IMAX cinema showcasing English-speaking films, and an expansive selection of dining options. The mall also boasts a large aquarium visible from the center without requiring entry fees, as well as Adventureland, an underground theme park with various rides and an ice rink.
Rabat’s Morocco Mall is no longer a promise, it’s a pulsating reality. Now inaugurated and fully operational, this 100,000 m² architectural triumph redefines luxury retail in Morocco’s capital. Designed by Singapore’s DP Architects (creators of Dubai Mall), the space dazzles with avant-garde curves, cascading waterfalls in its soaring central atrium, and a glass façade that floods interiors with sunlight. Integrated into the Wessal Bourgreg development, it complements landmarks like the Grand Theatre, embodying Rabat’s metamorphosis into a “city of light.” Retail & Culture, Perfected: With 200+ stores, the mall balances global luxury (Dior, Zara) and local pride—Yan&One’s chic designs and Café Clock’s modern-Moroccan flavors shine. The rooftop garden, a tranquil escape with Bouregreg River views, contrasts beautifully with the buzzing indoor aquarium, where vibrant fish glide past mesmerized visitors. Sustainability isn’t an afterthought: green roofs, energy-efficient systems, and recycled materials underscore its eco-commitment. Leisure Unleashed The once “coming soon” amenities are now thriving. Families flock to the ice rink’s frosty loops, while cinephiles lounge in the plush, recliner-equipped cinema. The food court elevates mall dining—skip chains for fragrant tagines, sushi bars, and gelato crafted from Argan oil. Grit Amid Glamour Weekend crowds test the 5,000-space parking lot, and a handful of stores remain under wraps. Yet, the mall’s soul lies in its staff: multilingual greeters, Youssef (the info desk’s walking encyclopedia), and security teams who blend professionalism with warmth. Morocco Mall delivers on its bold vision. More than a shopping hub, it’s a cultural landmark where Rabat’s heritage and future collide. Arrive early, wear comfy shoes, and let the waterfall’s murmur guide you this is modern Morocco at its finest.

Morocco Mall is hands down one of the best shopping destinations I've visited. From the moment you step in, you can feel the scale and luxury of the place. It’s not just about shopping; it’s an experience. The mall offers an incredible variety of stores, from high-end international brands to more affordable local shops, so there’s something for every budget and style. I particularly enjoyed the unique mix of traditional Moroccan craftsmanship alongside modern fashion. One of the highlights of the mall is the gigantic aquarium right in the middle. It’s truly stunning and adds a unique touch that I haven't seen in other malls. For families, it's a great attraction that the kids will love. There’s even a way to take an elevator ride through the aquarium, which was a fun and unexpected surprise. The food court offers plenty of options, with both international fast food chains and local cuisine, so you can grab a bite while enjoying the beautiful ocean views from the rooftop terrace. It’s more than just a place to shop; it’s a destination worth spending a few hours exploring.

The largest mall in Africa is a dump. From the pictures the mall looked nice inside but the mall is not maintained at all. Most of the tile floors are broken. Some sections there’s no tiles at all. The toilets are dirty and stinks. The air con is not on so it’s warm inside. The aquarium is a nice touch but it’s the only thing nice about this mall. The food court had some mediocre food stalls. This mall have some nice stores. But everything cost twice as much.
MisterME ( — Google review
We visited this mall during a roundtrip through several cities and, honestly, found it a bit overhyped. While the space is modern and clean, it didn’t offer anything particularly unique or memorable. The aquarium, often highlighted as a main attraction, felt underwhelming during our visit and isn’t necessarily a must-see. The food court also lacked variety and didn’t seem very inviting. That said, the Adventure Land and a few dining spots were enjoyable—but not quite enough to outweigh the drawbacks. If you're looking for a more well-rounded shopping and leisure experience, I’d recommend checking out Marina Shopping Centre instead.

The House of Photography in Marrakech is a museum that offers a glimpse into the Morocco of the late 19th and early 20th centuries through its extensive collection of over 10,000 photographs, old photographic plates, and documents. Located in the city's medina, this museum serves as a time machine transporting visitors to an era captured by diplomats, explorers, and photographers. The museum also hosts rotating exhibitions alongside its permanent collection.
Beautiful museum showing and telling Moroccan stories by image and text. Texts are also added in English which is a big plus. The roof terrace is really quiet and therefore the perfect place to cool down and get some refreshments. Nice view over the city! The entrance fee is really fair, especially because it also grands you the entrance to the music museum a little further.

A riad that hosts Marrakesh's photography museum. A wonderful collection of photographs documenting the people and places of Morocco and Marrakech. Some of the pictures are over 100 years old, but even those from the 1960's seem to tell a story of a different world. Many of the portraits are stunning to look at and observe, but it's worth reading and understanding some of the history of these pictures. The building is relaxing and not too busy. There is a very nice, relaxed cafe at the top on the terrace which serves various drinks and juices. Recommended for a rest and a change of pace from the souls.

Of course, I couldn’t just walk past the House of Photography when we were staying so close, especially while we’re have a hobby as photographers ourselves. So yes, visiting was a must. It’s a small but charming place, with lots of different works displayed on the walls, and upstairs there’s a rooftop terrace where you can relax and unwind after your visit.

Madrasa Ben Youssef is a 16th-century college building in Marrakech, known for its stunning Islamic architecture. The intricate geometric patterns, ornate tile work, carved stucco, and cedar woodwork adorn the prayer hall and courtyards. Originally founded as a madrasa for religious and legal studies in the 14th century, it has a rich history as one of North Africa's largest theological colleges.
Crawling with tourists, but definitely worth the visit. Of all the many sites you can visit in Marrakesh The architecture and colors are some of the best here. There’s lots of little nooks and crannies to take photos. Unfortunately, one of the most stunning spaces is constantly covered with tourist so you might have to fight for a stranger free photo.

This is an historical landmark intended to preserve Marrakech’s architectural heritage. It is a beautiful site. I got there at 9:30am on a Friday and entered with ease and no wait. I suggest going early to beat the crowd around 10:30am. I paid 50 MAD to get in, which is reasonable (about $5 USD). There’s a lot of incredible and intricate work that went to preserving/revitalizing this building. You can get through it in an hour. I suggest getting a tour if you want to dig deep into the cultural and historical significance of the site. It’ll be a richer experience with that context. There are a few checkpoints with video in various languages for you to learn more about the building’s days as an educational institution.

Once a bastion of learning in the region ,this amazing building has been restored to it's original glory. Light plays across the magnificent tiled walls and floors in each space. Small rooms fill the structure where students once studied various subjects. In the courtyard a beautiful water feature lies central to magnificent decorations sweeping the wall and door entrances. At the top of the multistory structure you can watch a film documenting the restoration of the building. The entrance fee is reasonable and queing at the time of our visit was not excessive.

Visiting the Bou Inania Madrasa in Fes felt like stepping into a living work of art. Every detail — from the intricate zellige tiles and carved cedar wood to the graceful courtyard and marble fountain — reflected the brilliance of Marinid craftsmanship. Once a place of learning and worship, this 14th-century madrasa still holds a quiet, powerful energy. Standing beneath its beautifully decorated arches, I was completely absorbed in the harmony, history, and sacred artistry that fills the space. An unforgettable glimpse into Morocco’s rich Islamic legacy.

Jardin Majorelle, located in Marrakesh, is a captivating botanical garden designed by the French artist Jacques Majorelle. This serene oasis features an impressive variety of exotic plants, vibrant colors, and peaceful water features that provide a tranquil retreat from the city's hustle and bustle. The garden also houses a 1930s cubist villa and an on-site cafe where visitors can relax amidst lush greenery.
Excellent. It’s for good reason this place has been designed by a fashion icon — it’s visible in every single detail. The colours are something to behold of, lively and giving the place a distinct vibrancy. The layout is wonderful, even in the heat of summer providing for calm. It can get busy at times, but giving tourists pre-defined slots to enter helps ease the crowd and make your stay enjoyable. Much recommended, it’s one of the must see items in the world.

I love cactus plants and there is no better place for cactus lovers than Jardin Majorelle. This beautiful garden holds so much variety of exotic plants especially cactus. We booked our tickets a week in advance and visited the garden on satutday afternoon between 1.30 pm and 2.30 time frame window. There was slight wait for approximately 15 minutes prior to entry which is reasonable. Garden is gorgeous and nicely looked after by the management. There is overwhelming presence of security within this garden but i guess its necessary to protect the natural habitat. Sometimes visitors unintentionally do things which can cause a significant damage to the beauty of this garden. Therefore, presence of security personnel is imperative. This garden gets quite busy and you have to wait to take few pictures or visist this site. We felt like we were in time machine and life was so slow and peaceful whilst visiting this garden. Do not rush and enjoy each and every component of this beautiful garden. I envisage anything between 2 to 3 hours is reasonable timeframe to appreciate this garden. We bought the combo ticket of garden + Berber are museum which was a good decision. All details are clearly signposted for the ease of visitors. A must visit if you are in Marrakesh.

Beautiful, but be prepared for the crowds. ​There is no denying that the Jardin Majorelle is stunning—the colors and the plant collections are truly lovely and very photogenic. However, the experience is slightly dampened by the sheer volume of people. ​Important heads-up: You absolutely must book tickets online days in advance, as they don't sell them at the door. Be aware that even with a pre-booked time slot, we still faced a long queue just to get inside. It felt a bit chaotic despite the reservation system. ​It is definitely worth seeing for its beauty, just don't go expecting a quiet, peaceful stroll!

This is one of the highlights of our trip. Every corner, every room, every passageway was exceptionally beautiful. With ceilings were particularly impressive. It's a large place and every room is visitable with the exception of the garden which is still under construction (11-11-2025). There was also an interesting art exhibit from Mexico being shown for a couple of the rooms. A huge number of people were passing through at the same time, but there was no wait and no undue crowding.

A bit crowded and a lot of construction here and there, yet still worth the money! Discover hundreds of year old artisanery in the walls, the ground you walk on and on the roofs - everywhere you look is handcrafted and one room is more beautiful than the other. Wander round, explore the beautiful spaces and go back in time. I've been here twice and it always amazes me.
Anja L — Google review
Bahia Palace is absolutely stunning. I’m so glad I decided to visit despite some reviews mentioning restoration work. Each room is a piece of art and the ceilings alone are worth the visit. The craftsmanship is just wow. There were still a few areas under restoration when I went, but you can still see plenty. It’s definitely a must-see when in Marrakech.

Packed w tourists, try and skip rush hours and be patient if you’re looking for a certain influencer part/angle. I think I saw more stunning tiles and architecture roaming the alleys of the Medina. Don’t forget to look up! The ceilings are some of the most wonderous parts.

The palace, with its lovely riads and interiors, is truly a sight to behold. There are a few rooms with particularly impressive interiors to admire. While the entrance fee of 100 dirhams is a bit on the higher side, it is still a worthwhile experience. During our last visit, there were quite a few renovations underway.

Beautiful palace, very interesting to see the traditional architecture and design. We ignored warnings and went in the middle of the day which meant it was obviously busy, but not overwhelmingly so and we could still get good views. Could do with a few more signs explaining the different parts of the design. But overall a good way to spend an hour or so

Jemaa el-Fnaa is a bustling square in Marrakech, known as the heart of the city's carnival. During the day, it hosts market stalls and various performers such as snake charmers, henna artists, and musicians. As night falls, the square transforms into a lively hub with food stands offering grilled meats and fresh orange juice vendors.
Such an amazing place!!! Some tips you need to know: 🎁 You will fibd amazing presents from clithes, shoes, decorations, etc 📦 Everything you buy can be send home but onky if you buy in very stablished stores with good reputation 🤝 You will have to come to an agreement of price, usually prices are 2 or 3 times higher than tge real ones 💯 You can pay in cash or credit cards 👀 Check in detail what you are buying, for example somethingS are made with old leather and they break immediately like shoes.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, the beating heart of Marrakesh, is a place unlike any other in the world. At first glance, the square feels like a vast stage where life unfolds in a surreal choreography of noise, color, and movement. Crowds flow endlessly across the open space, creating an atmosphere that is both chaotic and mesmeriz-ing. During the day, food stalls and vendors line the square, offering fresh juices, fragrant spices, dried fruits, and countless souvenirs. Snake charmers, monkey handlers, and street performers mingle with locals and tourists, producing a scene that feels like a dream—or a hallucination. The cacophony of drums, flutes, and voices intensifies the sense of otherworldliness. As night falls, Jemaa el-Fnaa transforms. Dozens of food stands appear, filling the air with the aroma of grilled meats, tagines, and couscous. Clouds of smoke and steam blend with the glow of lanterns, while storytellers and musicians gather circles of spectators. Visitors often describe Jemaa el-Fnaa as overwhelming, even disorienting, yet unforgettable. The mixture of exotic scents, vivid colors, and surreal images leaves a lasting impression, making the square not just a marketplace but a living symbol of Morocco’s cultural energy. It is a place that creates an experience both chaotic and magical.

Chaotic in the best way possible but I never felt unsafe. There are a lot of vendors who will try to get your attention, call out to you, or invite you to look at what they’re selling. Just be mindful and keep walking if you’re not interested. I usually just ignored it and was left alone. Trying to be polite and saying “no thank you” only invites more conversation. They speak Arabic, French, English, and Spanish, so switching languages won’t get you out of it. There’s so much to do and see here. It’s full of life and energy, with tons of food stalls, juice stands, restaurants, and places to grab a drink. There’s music, street performers, and all kinds of entertainment everywhere you look. It’s also where I saw the most tourists in all the cities I visited. You’ll see animals that people offer to take pictures with, but just keep in mind they may or may not be treated well. Still, the overall experience is unforgettable. Jemaa el-Fnaa really feels like the heart of Marrakech.

Very old culturally and historically square and acts as one of the main market places in medina. Almost as main soul (and full of life) and good vibes! of Marrakech city and definitely as a tourist you should see and explore in person. In day time, and definitely at night time!

Busy, vibrant, exciting, chaotic madness ! Loved it 😃 Don't be afraid of the street food, it's gorgeous (just stay away from fish). We felt very safe. Not too bothered by hawkers. A must at night or day. But especially at night 😀

A must visit place while in Marrakech. Very crowded square next to the famous El Fnaa Mosque, occupied daily with hundreds of strollers, sellers, drum dancers, snake and monkey players, ice cream and juice stalls, shops, restaurants and hotels. Definitely you will find something you like. We spent 2 hour just walking around and still feeling that we didn’t see everything. Remember: if you catch a monkey or take photo for any seller, he will not leave you till you pay him something.

This is a vibrant place, packed with bustling activities. There are many entrances & exits. The square gets busy as the sun goes down with the night being the busiest. There are shops, cafes, eateries, and entertainment all in one square. If you are not comfortable with crowds don't go to this place. The souks are narrow & you will be walking alongside other pedestrians, people on motorcycles & scooters, as well as donkey carts & rickshaws. All in good fun!
Romana H — Google review
A famous square with a market and food stalls – a lively meeting place and a place for street artists to perform. Beware of people with snakes, though. They'll ask for money for a photo from a distance, then another for a snake dance. If another friend helps him and takes photos of you, you have to give money to everyone – if you don't, they'll follow you and beg for a few dollars. Plus, there are tons of shopkeepers, each trying to persuade you to buy their food, henna, music, juices, all at exorbitant prices for tourists. In the evenings, there's sometimes singing and dancing, but you have to give money to someone even if you only watch a single second – otherwise, the owner will be angry... It's worth seeing during the day and at night, but in the evening, you'll be walking with a thousand people next to you, so the walk is tiring...

A beautiful and historical mosque in the heart of Marrakesh city. This gorgeous mosque is about 10 minutes walk from the famous Jemma el Finna square. There was loads of construction work carried out when we visited this mosque. We were allowed entry because it was Asar prayer time and we were lucky to offer our congregational Asar prayers here. Interior of the mosque is simple yet elegent and exhibit impressive old architecture. I am unsure whether entry is allowed for non Muslims but for Muslims, you can enter and offer prayers. A nearby guide was briefing to his visitors that entry is limited due to recent earthquake. The mosque is old and potentially a hazzard if big number of people are allowed in. However, I am unsure whether the entry restrictions were implemented post earthquake or they existed even before. There is no entry fee.

Such a beautiful and iconic spot in Marrakech. It was under construction when I went, so I didn’t get to see all of its beauty up close, but even from the outside it’s impressive. The architecture and scale make it easy to see why it’s such an important landmark. The surrounding area is peaceful and nice to walk around, especially in the evening when everything lights up. Even though I couldn’t experience it fully, it’s still worth stopping by.
Seth I — Google review
Such an amazing touristic spot in Marrakech. The tallest construction in Marrakech and Morocco. It rises for 80 meters. Was constructed by mistake in the nearby area but not facing the direction of Qibla, then demolished and re constructed again in the right direction. Many stalls on the way to the mosque selling pomegranate and sugarcane juice, some clothes and paintings.

A great place to visit, but you can only see the tower, and everything is currently being renovated. A large 12th-century mosque in the Almohad style with a square, gardens, and a fountain. Behind the mosque is a pleasant park for a walk

The Koutoubia Mosque is an absolute must-see and without doubt the most iconic landmark of Marrakech. Its stunning minaret rises above the city and can be seen from almost everywhere, serving as a point of reference while exploring the medina. Built in the 12th century, it is often called the “sister” of the Giralda in Seville and the Hassan Tower in Rabat, sharing the same architectural style and historical significance. Even though non-Muslims cannot enter, the exterior is impressive, especially at sunset when the minaret glows. Visiting this monument is essential to truly understand the character and spirit of Marrakech

Allahu Akbar a truly mesmerising House of Allah in a central area of Marrakesh. The architecture is stunning. But the House is soothing due to the Salah. May Allah continue to preserve the Masjid and keep us busy with His servants worshipping Him.

The Koutoubia Mosque is a must-see in Marrakech. Non-Muslims can’t enter, but the exterior and tall minaret are impressive. The surrounding gardens are peaceful and great for a short break. It’s close to Jemaa El-Fnaa, making it easy to visit while exploring the city. Best time to go is around sunset for great views and photos.

Paradis du Safran

Mentioned on

Nature & Parks
Gardens
Nestled in the enchanting landscapes of Morocco, جنة الزعفران (Paradis du Safran) is a captivating ecological saffron farm that offers visitors an escape into nature's embrace. Owned by the spirited Christine Ferrari, who traded her corporate career for a life filled with dreams and donkeys, this hidden gem features not only aromatic saffron but also a diverse garden of medicinal plants and tropical fruit orchards.
What a hidden gem! Paradis du Safran truly lives up to its name, a small paradise nestled in the heart of Morocco. Christine, the visionary behind this magical place, has done an exceptional job creating an oasis of tranquility and beauty. The entrance fee of and the price was amazing. The atmosphere is serene, the food is authentic and bursting with flavor, and the customer service is impeccable. The Moroccan cuisine, with ingredients sourced directly from their garden, was a highlight. Every bite was a delightful blend of authenticity and freshness. The traditional Moroccan mint tea and dessert were absolutely amazing, true culinary treasures. A unique feature of the experience was walking barefoot through the garden, followed by washing our feet in the traditional way with warm water and salt, a simple yet rejuvenating ritual. The garden itself is a sight to behold, filled with vibrant flora and fauna. Keep an eye out for the majestic peacocks gracefully wandering around, adding to the charm. Although the schedule is strict, Christine and her team graciously accommodated us despite a slight delay, which we greatly appreciated. Make sure to check their opening times in advance and arrive on time. This peaceful retreat was a welcome escape from the noise and bustle of Marrakech. Christine and her team are excellent hosts who go above and beyond to ensure a memorable visit. I wholeheartedly recommend Paradis du Safran to anyone visiting the area. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience that blends nature, culture, and relaxation in perfect harmony. Don’t miss the chance to immerse yourself in this enchanting slice of paradise!

Make sure you get to Safran Paradise with plenty of time before it closes. This is a place to relax, not to check your watch. Upon arrival, you are greeted by staff and offered a herb-infused mineral water. The owner, Christine, welcomes all guests personally and gives a brief explanation : you can relax on lounge chairs and observe the safran field with the stunning Atlas Mountains as a backdrop, walk through the herb garden and orchards, which conveniently have everything labeled in 4 languages, relax by the koi pond, serve yourself to complimentary mineral water from the fridge, and walk along the barefoot path, an experience which is topped with different herb-infused footbaths and argan oil pampering for your feet. A perfect spa experience. Throughout your visit, you'll be accompanied by beautiful peacocks and peahens, chickens, a sweet donkey, and many wild birds! Straw hats and sun tan lotion are available for you to use, and when you have finished enjoying the garden, the staff will set up a table for you to enjoy a small snack and a safran tea. The venue also offers lunch, for an additional price. You pay at the end, and can browse the gift shop. Wish we had come a little earlier to enjoy the place a little while longer.

Amazing experience! Do not miss this. Christina is so lovely, she greeted us at the door and welcomed us with rose infused mineral water. This was followed by a generous snack with freshly baked bread, saffron tea, argon oil, olives, a pomegranate and freshly roasted nuts. We sat in a beautiful setting to enjoy. If you want lunch you will need to email her 1 or 2 days in advance. She had each plant labelled and we could smell all the different herbs from mint to thyme to stevia to oregano. There was a spot to practice your own yoga or play pétanque. The trees were bursting with life we saw mangos, lemons, olives, oranges, avocados .. the list goes on. She also created a sensory ‘barefoot path’. You take your shoes off and walk in many different surfaces from rocks to plants etc. afterwards there are a series of foot baths to cleanse your feet followed by a fresh towel and Argon oil. A truely delightful experience. We left with full bellies, relaxed feet, and a few goodies from the shop including freshly ground ras Al hanout.

Paradis du Safran is a beautiful, magical place. I come every year with a group and it’s always an oasis of mindfulness and peace.

It’s a highlight for me each time I visit Morocco. See you next year! ❤️

Toubkal

Mountain peak

Mountains
Toubkal is the highest peak in the Atlas Mountains and a popular destination for climbers seeking breathtaking panoramic views. Trekkers can arrange a summit with a professional Berber guide who specializes in ascending Kasbah Toubkal, providing planned routes and necessary equipment for the 3-day journey. It's important to pack essentials like trekking boots, layered clothing, a windbreaker, and water bottles. Travelers often start their trek from Imli and stay overnight in mountain tents.
Amazing and very easy hike. Some people had altitude sickness though, if you are susceptible, better take more days to acclimatise. Altogether very enjoyable.
Nikolay O — Google review
Great experience! Definitely recommend having a guide as they organised this whole experience for us. We slept in a shelter at 3100m and ascended the mountain in the night to arrive at the peak for sunrise.
Nugs — Google review
Great 2-day hike to the summit. We stayed in the Frech refuge (hot showers!) and after a 3am breakfast set off in the dark with head torches. The weather was perfect, clear skies no wind and not too cold at the summit. Amazing views and sunrise. It's a long trek back down to Imlil all on the same day. We arrived at 6pm, after a great lunch at the refuge on the way down.
John D — Google review
We did a 3-peak challenge in the Toubkal region, first climbing Ras and Timesguida. We found this route to be much quieter and, arguably, more challenging than Mount Toubkal itself. The next day, we climbed Mount Toubkal. The route was crowded, especially compared to the other peaks, and involved an early 4am start to catch the sunrise. The ascent is a non-technical trek, but the loose scree and patches of ice made it demanding. The views from the top, however, were spectacular and the sense of achievement from reaching North Africa's highest peak was a definite highlight. Overall, the trek was a very worthwhile and enjoyable experience. While it is physically demanding, it is not overly difficult, and the reward of a great view and a spectacular sunrise makes the hard work worthwhile.
Robert U — Google review
I am a 50 year old man and went up with my 14 year old daughter, it was our first hike and we had never done anything like it. Our guide was very helpful before and during our trip, at the meeting up point we were met with our guide who sat down with us and explained the hike and answered our questions in a honest and respectful way, he made us open up at bags and told us directly what he thought was unnecessary and not needed, turned out only 2/3 of our three bags were needed. When we started our hike on the first day the guide stayed close to us making sure we didn’t feel ill or unsafe by constantly checking up and making sure that we felt comfortable and that we were fine. When we arrived at the base camp to spend the night we walked in to be greeted by other guides who made sure we were fine and showed us to our room which we shared with 20 odd other people we were allowed to walk around and sit down to talk to other people about what they thought about the walking and how they felt after sitting for just under an hour we had dinner which was a starter, main and dessert. We then went to bed with everyone around the same time to be all woken up at around 2:30 ish AM and started walking at 3/4 AM in the pitch black we were given head torches if we did not have one. Up the mountain was steep and you mostly got stuck behind other groups or all merged together, It was extremely steep and the higher up you climbed the thinner and colder the air became. When we reached the top my daughter became quite ill and emotional we did not stay up there for long because of the freezing temperatures as we descended my daughter started to have a panic attack and felt as if she couldn’t breath the other guides noticed and attempted to try to calm down my daughter and our guide then realised and went down to assist my daughter who was then carried down the mountain by him as he ran down so she could have better oxygen intake he constantly checked that she was okay and if she needed to drink or eat something when we got back down to the base camp we were met with lunch before walking back down the mountain and getting picked up by the taxi who took us back to our hotel. Overall an amazing guide who assisted my daughter and met her needs even tho we were up a mountain. Would 100% do again !!!

Arnold B — Google review
Climbing Toubkal was nothing short of unforgettable. Reaching the highest peak in North Africa felt like standing on top of the world. The trail is challenging but incredibly rewarding, with breathtaking landscapes that change at every turn, rocky paths, high valleys, and panoramic views that make every step worth it. The feeling at the summit is pure magic: crisp air, 360° mountain views, and a sense of accomplishment unlike anything else. Out of all the hikes I’ve done so far, this one is my absolute number one. A must-do for anyone who loves adventure and real mountain experiences. 🏔️

The Ouirgane Valley trek was absolutely amazing. Incredible views and a chance to explore the beauty of Ouirgane. You learn so much about the local culture, getting to experience herbs, plants and fruit that grow on the mountains. The lunch was delicious and I could listen to Mohamed talking about the local history and culture all day and never be bored. As a solo female traveller I fully recommend this experience. I wish I was staying longer so I could go for more trips with Mohamed!
Chelsea D — Google review
Two absolutely fantastic experiences with Mohamed, firstly walking in the national park around Ouirgane (3 hours round trip) and then the next day taking his car along a narrow winding road (an experience in itself) to a small village overlooking the valley before back to his village for a Berber lunch (cooked by his mum) and walk back to the Domaine Malika. (~3hours 30 mins). Truly unforgettable.
David W — Google review
Was great experience - including berber lunch, with a lovely lady who cooked for us. We really enjoyed the walk and landscapes and our guide Mohamed was very knowledgeable and nice - he showed us his house and told us about local live. The only thing that ruined my positive experience is that after prepaying a full amount for a tour (without discounts) AND giving a 10% tip - the guide was still asking if we can pay more. I am not sure that guides are paid properly or the company takes a big cut…

Wonderful piece of Moroccan history. The drive to get here is unbelievable. The mosque is located where Ibn Tumart, the founder of the Almohad Caliphate, is buried. The mosque is currently undergoing renovations and we were told it would take about 18 months to complete. Unfortunately, because of the work visitors are not allowed inside. Still, it's impressive from the outside and, combined with the drive it's worth a visit. The cafe next door offers drinks and a simple egg and tomato tajine for lunch.

Lovely place, with a great tour guide to match. The collection of art and furniture is perfectly counterpoised by the rugged beauty of the beautiful building. The museum entry is 200 MAD, and everyone was very welcoming. Claudio Bravo was certainly a fascinating figure. While the narrative of the guide suggested a life of solitude in terms of intimate partners, his work hints at deeper connections—some of his paintings carry undertones that makes one wonder about the relationships he kept quietly beyond the canvas, and within the high walls of the castle he built.

The welcome here is exceedingly poor. It’s a hotel and restaurant and museum but no access unless you book way ahead. Can’t see the pictures without a guide and he was not available. Probably having his lunch! We were not able to eat unless we booked ahead as well. Not flexible or welcoming. I am sure that Claudio Brava would not tolerate such poor hospitality as he loved his staff and was a generous host. Having said all that by waiting a wonderful guide and a man who worked for Mr Brava came after 20 minutes and we have had the most amazing and outstanding private visit to thé private home of Claudio Brava. Thank you Mustafa for saving the day!

Strongly recommend!

A huge thank you also to your incredible team arranging everything so perfectly. We would love to return regularly to enjoy the palace and the breathtaking sunset views. May God bless you all.

Visit+lunch is quite a VIP experience : private guide to visit the house, and it is quite gorgeous. Very friendly and funny staff. Meal is ok, but the real highlight is the visit. Not cheap for a museum visit, but the quietness and richness of the experience makes it worth it. We did not stay in the bedrooms but they look gorgeous. Quite secluded, unique.
David A — Google review
Did a tour though the Palace. I went in without any knowledge about Bravo, but soon I learned what an inspirational man he was. The guide was really passionate about his work and the building, as he had worked for Bravo himself. The guide spoke various languages really well, and offered to make some nice pictures here and there (and he sings well!). The Palace itself is a extraordinary building with many beautiful works of Bravo exposed. Bravo also collected interesting items, such as the Mammoth skull that can be found exhibited upstairs. All-in-all an excellent tour, but the price is high (200dh for 60-90min). Tea was promised at the end but never came.

Museum ticket DH 200, garden ticket DH 50. The garden is well worth visiting. It is quiet, not many people there, especially during the holy month of Ramadan. I was able to relax and pet the Japanese carps whilst soaking up some sun rays without being rushed. I am tempted to visit again.

Rooms a bit dark but clean and comfortable. There are 2 pools. But the star of the show is the tour. You just have to see it. Claudio Bravo designed and created his Palais and then curated it with beautiful and ancient things. Amazing and beautiful gardens filled with sculptures Food a bit limited No drink but a must see if anywhere close to Taroudant. Road access is dodgy at the moment but will be improved soon.
