Day 1: Garden & Medina

Marrakech, Morocco on November 4, 2025

8:30am

Leave Riad Bab 54

Depart your riad to begin the day; take a short taxi or arranged transfer to arrive punctually at Jardin Majorelle. Leaving at 8:30am helps you beat larger mid-morning crowds.
GBP0, 0h15m

9:00am

Jardin Majorelle (Majorelle Garden & Berber Museum)

Iconic botanical garden created by Jacques Majorelle and restored by Yves Saint Laurent; visit for its cobalt-blue buildings, exotic plantings and the small Berber Museum. Typically open from early morning (around 8:00–9:00) until late afternoon (around 17:30–18:00), so a 9:00am visit is ideal to avoid crowds.
GBP8, 1h30m

11:00am

Early lunch — Café des Épices (rooftop)

Modern casual rooftop spot in the heart of the souks offering salads, tagines and light Moroccan-inspired dishes; highly rated (4.2+ across major review platforms) and fits the £-££ range. Book for 11:00 and allow 1–1.5 hours for a relaxed early lunch with views over the spice market.
GBP12, 1h15m

12:30pm

Madrasa Ben Youssef

Former Islamic college celebrated for its ornate stucco, cedar woodwork and zellij tile mosaics — a concentrated lesson in Moroccan architecture and craftsmanship. Generally open from about 9:00–17:00, so a 12:30pm visit fits well after lunch.
GBP3, 1h00m

2:30pm

Les Bains Marrakech (reservation)

Attend your confirmed 14:30 reservation for a hammam, spa treatment or wellness experience — Les Bains blends traditional Moroccan bathing rituals with modern spa services. Arrive a few minutes early to check in; typical sessions run 60–90 minutes.
GBP50, 1h30m

4:15pm

Return to Riad / Rest

Head back to Riad Bab 54 to shower, rest or explore nearby souks at a relaxed pace; this buffer gives time to refresh before evening plans.
GBP0, 1h45m

7:00pm

Dinner — Naranj (reservation)

Enjoy your 19:00 reservation at Naranj, a popular Lebanese-inspired restaurant in the medina noted for creative mezze and consistently strong reviews (4.2+); it fits the £-££ range and is ideal for a leisurely evening meal. Arrive on time for your booking.
GBP25, 1h30m

8:45pm

Evening walk at Jemaa el-Fna (optional)

Finish the night with a stroll through Jemaa el-Fna to experience storytellers, musicians and evening food stalls — the square becomes lively after dark and is great for atmosphere and photos. Open 24/7 as a public square, though stall hours vary by vendor.
