Three days is enough for Marrakech if the logistics are handled. Here is the itinerary our concierge team books most often, and what it costs to have every transfer, guide and table arranged for you.
Day 1, Medina, souks and a rooftop dinner
Land, settle into your riad and walk the Medina with a local guide who keeps the pace easy and the shopping honest. Finish on a rooftop above Jemaa el-Fna at sunset.
- Airport pickup and riad check-in
- Guided Medina walk: Bahia Palace, souks, Koutoubia
- Rooftop dinner reservation with a view of Jemaa el-Fna
Day 2, Agafay desert and dinner under the stars
A 45-minute drive gets you into the stone desert. Camels or quads late afternoon, then a Berber dinner with music once the sky turns.
- Quad biking or camel trek in Agafay
- Sunset over the Agafay hills
- Berber dinner, music and optional camp night
Day 3, Atlas mountains or hot air balloon
Either lift off at dawn over the palm groves, or head to the Ourika valley for waterfalls, Berber tea and lunch by the river before your flight home.
- Hot air balloon flight at sunrise
- Or Ourika valley and Atlas foothills day trip
- Hammam before your late-evening flight
Frequently asked
Is 3 days enough for Marrakech?
Yes for the Medina plus one desert or mountain day. For the Sahara dunes at Merzouga you need at least 3 days on their own, so we suggest Agafay instead on a short trip.
How do we move around?
We include private air-conditioned transfers with an English- or French-speaking driver, so nothing depends on hailing taxis or negotiating prices.
