Riads at sunrise, Atlas snow on the horizon, and a hammam every 300 metres.
Marrakech is the red city — a medina where 12th-century walls enclose a thousand alleyways, a new town (Gueliz) where Moroccan design meets French café culture, and a riad tradition that turns guesthouses into sanctuaries around orange-tree courtyards.
Three-and-a-half hours direct from London Gatwick, Stansted and Luton on Ryanair, easyJet, British Airways and Royal Air Maroc. Riads from £40/night, hammam rituals under £20, and the Atlas mountains an hour away for day hikes.
March to May and September to November. Summer is hot (40°C) but the riads stay cool. Winter evenings can drop to 5°C — bring layers.
Early morning at Le Jardin Secret in the Medina. Being there right at opening (9:00 AM) lets you experience the Islamic gardens in total silence before the midday bustle.
Indulge in a traditional Beldi Soap scrub at a neighbourhood hammam, or head to the Agafay Desert (45 mins away) for sunrise yoga on the dunes.
We scout for riads in the Bab Doukkala area. It’s authentic and quiet, yet just a 10-minute walk to the main square.

The walled old city — Jemaa el-Fna square, the souks, Bahia Palace. Traditional riads line the alleyways. The essential first-time base.
French colonial quarter — boutique hotels, design shops, rooftop restaurants, Majorelle Garden. Quieter, more modern.
Resort and palm-grove territory — spa hotels, boutique riads with full hammams, polo clubs. For slower, wellness-led stays.
No. UK passport holders get a free 90-day visit entry on arrival.
Yes — the medina is heavily patrolled and tourist scams (rather than crime) are the main issue. Agree tuktuk/taxi prices before the ride and be firm with guides.
A riad, at least for the first night. It’s the authentic Marrakech experience — courtyards, rooftop breakfasts, hand-crafted everything. Boutique hotels in Gueliz work well for longer stays.
