Itinerary
Half-Day: Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour in Marrakech
Your experience begins with a pick-up from your Marrakech accommodation. Meet your professional guide and your carriage driver before starting your relaxing ride through the Red City’s historic quarters.
Your first stop takes you along the majestic ramparts of Marrakech, built with red stone and adorned with nine impressive gates, each representing a piece of the city’s long history. Continue toward the world-renowned Majorelle Garden, a masterpiece of art and nature created by French painter Jacques Majorelle and later restored by Yves Saint Laurent. Explore its bamboo groves, fountains, and exotic plants, and visit the Berber Museum inside the garden.
Next, ride through the new city of Gueliz, with its wide palm-lined avenues, boutique shops, and vibrant cafés, reflecting modern Moroccan life. Your final garden stop is the Menara Garden, famous for its olive trees, large reflective pool, and panoramic Atlas Mountain backdrop — a favorite photo spot for visitors.
To end your journey, the carriage will take you to Jamaa El Fna Square, the beating heart of Marrakech, where musicians, storytellers, and street performers bring the city to life. After soaking in the vibrant atmosphere, you’ll be transferred back to your accommodation.
