About Marrakech

Travellers browsing a food stall in the Marrakech medina with a local Intrepid guide

The ancient city of Marrakech will put all your senses to the test. Motorbikes, prayer calls and street music add to the city’s soundtrack. The souks are overflowing with spices, nuts, carpets – you name it. And you could see anything from traditional storytellers to acrobats in the iconic Djemaa el-Fna square. Learn about the slave-turned-grand Vizier who built Bahia Palace, cook tajine with a family in their home or sample a bit of everything on a food tour. Then, with your new insider knowledge, let your curiosity lead you through the medina’s twisting passages.
