01

The strongest trio

Start with Ben Youssef Madrasa for craftsmanship, continue to Bahia Palace for courtyards and gardens, then El Badi to grasp the scale of Saadian Marrakech.

02

Koutoubia and Saadian Tombs

Koutoubia structures the city and is best appreciated from outside. The Saadian Tombs are a shorter visit that pairs well with the Kasbah.

03

The right pace

Two major monuments in the morning are enough. Leave time to walk, stop for tea or visit a smaller museum.

Frequently asked questions

Should I see everything in one day?

No. Two or three well-chosen visits are better than rushing between monuments.
