Authentic Passage Marrakech |
| Take in the vivid Red City and its carousing life of trade and fun! Marrakech is about bargaining for treasures in dusty hanuts, the incredible tribal music and theater at Jmaa el Fna...and so much more.. |
| I team up with an official Moroccan guide to give you the best possible view of the Old Medina! |
| You'll enjoy the archetectural wonders of Marrakech, from Koutoubia Mosque to the Ben Youssef Madersa. We take you to the Ben Salah, which is not on the tour maps, where Moroccan people go to buy / rent their wedding apparal and bands for festivals; and you will see the Old Jewish Quartier, Bab Mellah, too! |
| Your tour is tailored around the genuine beauty of Moroccan life. |
| I show you why I've come to love this great city and its ramparts, not to mention the nearby vistas in the High Atlas where I recently purchased a mud/stone house. |

Marrakech off the Beaten Path! Walk through the Old Medina with a focus on how people live and work. Below is a taste of the itinerary for the first half of your day! |
| |
9:30 am: Begin with tea or a juice at Dar Cherifa, which means “the holy house.” Cherifa is a place of sanctuary from the busy souk streets beyond and a literary café/art gallery. |
| |
10:00 am: Mouassine shopping souks. Skirt along the narrow residential streets where a small, wooden door may lead into a cavernous, neighborhood bakery or a palace! View artisans making wares in their workshops. |
| |
11:00-12:30 am: Ben Yosef Madersa. After viewing this popular tourist attraction (mainly because it is a rather magnificent place), we stroll into the Ben Salam neighborhood where Moroccan people rent and buy musical instruments, bands and apparel for their weddings. |

Day 2, in a Sedan! A second day with a sedan or minibus, for which you get to see Marrakech beyond the Old Medina, including walking through the pavillion built by sultans for their romantic holidays with their wifes at the Menara Gardens, as well as walking through the truly vivid blues of Majorelle Gardens.

Literary Tour for those who want to know what various authors have said about the city, while checking out Dar Cherifa (above left), a Literary café and the oldest house in the Medina! (Tod is now writing a book titled: The Foreigner.) |

Shopping Tour! For those of you who like to shop, we can help you negotiate down prices and see that you get fair deals as I have worked for several years as an exporter from Morocco. |
