Arrive early to enjoy Yves Saint Laurent's famous garden with fewer crowds and beautiful morning light; combine with the Berber Museum if you like. Check official opening hours (commonly around 8:00am) and pre-book tickets to skip queues.
Take a taxi or ride back toward the medina/Kasbah area; use this time to drop purchases at the riad or stroll a quiet street market. No fixed cost — taxi ~MAD20–60 depending on distance and traffic.
Early lunch at La Table de la Kasbah for Moroccan specialties and a relaxed set-menu lunch; confirm they can seat you at 11:00 (many Marrakech restaurants begin lunch service 12:00 but some open earlier for bookings).
Visit the restored Ben Youssef Madrasa to admire finely carved cedar, zellij tilework and the historic courtyard — a medina highlight and short walk from central Kasbah areas. Check opening hours (commonly ~9:00am–5:00pm/6:00pm) and any temporary closures.
Allow time for walking and a short taxi to reach the spa area; use the buffer to change, shower, or arrive slightly early for your 14:30 reservation. Taxi ~MAD30–80 depending on location.
Enjoy your pre-booked hammam and spa treatments at 14:30; confirm the exact service length with the spa and arrive 10–15 minutes early. Opening and service times can vary — keep your reservation confirmation handy.
Dinner at Naranj for contemporary Lebanese-Moroccan cuisine with lively flavors and a friendly atmosphere; their evening service is ideal at 19:00 — arrive on time for your reservation.
After dinner, enjoy the UNESCO-listed square as it lights up with food stalls, storytellers and performers — a classic Marrakech evening experience. Open all evening; expect crowds after dark.
