Marrakech

Marrakech is Morocco’s beating heart and offers an exciting array of activities for the adventurous. The striking Millennium-old walls which encircle the city and give Marrakech its nickname of the ‘Red City’, surround a rich palette of sights and sounds to stimulate the senses. From the technicolour spices and carpets to the earthenware and trinkets which populate the city’s souks, Marrakech is a shopper’s paradise where you can bargain and haggle to your heart’s content. Africa’s largest square, Jemaa el-Fna is full to the brim with snake charmers, fortune tellers and story tellers poised to entertain visitors and locals alike. If the bustle of the city becomes too much, the ancient gardens which surround the city can offer the perfect place to enjoy a relaxed stroll away from the medina.
