Three days that treat Marrakech as two cities that happen to share a taxi rank. Days 1 and 2 stay inside the walls — the Saadian and Alaouite monuments in the southern medina, then the madrasa, the souks and a hammam in the north — and day 3 crosses into Guéliz for the Jardin Majorelle, the Yves Saint Laurent museum and a lunch that funds a women's training programme. The one thing to book before you fly is Jardin Majorelle: tickets are sold online only, on timed slots, through tickets.jardinmajorelle.com and nowhere else — every other site here you can walk up to. Two weekdays quietly reshape this trip, so check what day you land on: Wednesday closes both the Yves Saint Laurent museum and Le Foundouk, and Tuesday closes Al Fassia and Dar El Bacha. Every stop here says which day it shuts and what to do instead. Prices are 2026 foreign-visitor rates in dirhams, checked 25 July 2026, and they are the part of this plan most likely to drift — Moroccan monument fees have moved twice since 2024, so treat them as a band. Come in spring or autumn: July and August routinely pass 40 °C and the medina has no shade to spare. And plan around Ramadan if it falls in your window, when almost every site switches to shortened hours.

How we check
Anything with a kitchen or a ticket gate is verified individually: the official site where one exists, plus recent traveler reviews. Public squares, parks and viewpoints get an existence check. A venue we can’t confirm is flagged below rather than quietly kept, and the whole itinerary is re-checked on a cadence — past 12 months without one, the checked claim is dropped and the date above stops being a promise.
