The Voyage Prive travel expert’s opinion on last minute holidays to Marrakech
Though it known widely as The Red City, this doesn't in our humble opinion do Marrakech justice. Instead, it is awash with a much wider variety of vivid colours and design styles, making Marrakech a true explosion of the senses. There are so many incredible things to do on a last-minute Marrakech getaway. However, by far our most favourite thing to do here is to simply roam the city. You can easily get lost amidst the myriad of streets, taking in the fantastic blend of sights, sounds and smells.
The top 5 things to do in Marrakech
1. Discover the city's rich past
Marrakech has long been one of Morocco’s most important cities. Indeed, for a long time, it was one of the imperial capitals, so it's seen its fair share of history. One of the best ways to discover this rich and varied past is by visiting the museums located all across the city, such as the Tiskiwin Museum, which has on display a wide variety of artefacts all demonstrating the trading post of Marrakech. Alternatively, visit the Museum of Marrakech which happens to be housed in one of Marrakech's old palaces and contains books, coins, pottery and art from throughout the ages.
2. Dine out in style
One of the nicest things about a last-minute Marrakech holiday is the large array of high-quality, rooftop restaurants for you to dine at each evening. Typical Moroccan cuisine is a blend of many of the different cultures that have lived and traded in the city throughout the ages. But what makes it truly spectacular is being able to dine whilst looking out across the city, watching with fascination at the lights and sounds that continue late into the night.
3. Go haggling in the markets
Marrakech has long been a traders town and the markets still offer an incredible atmosphere that is hard to find elsewhere in the world. In particular, Marrakech is most well known for its jewellery and clothing that are of very high quality and much cheaper than elsewhere. Just be sure to practice up on your bartering skills before you go. Haggling is a key part of buying anything at the markets in Marrakech, so don't let anyone take advantage of you!
4. Get pampered in style
One of the biggest reasons people choose to visit Marrakech is to take advantage of the wide array of modern spa facilities on offer all across the city. Marrakech really is a city of old and new and the new takes the form of modern, luxury treatment centres designed to leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. All of the hotels recommended below offer state of the art spa facilities, so they may be the best place to start when searching for a way to unwind in style and comfort.
5. Take a cooking class
One fantastic way to really soak up the local culture whilst on your last minute Marrakech getaway is by choosing to go on a cooking class. Here, you get the chance to learn the skills necessary to make a whole host of local Moroccan dishes. Any good tour will first start with a trip to the local market where you buy your ingredients fresh from the merchants before heading back and putting them to good use.

Practical information about last minute holidays to Marrakech
A place with buzzing markets and beautiful architecture
Marrakech is one of the most vibrant cities in Morocco, offering something for everyone. Days and nights can be spent searching for souvenirs and sampling authentic Moroccan cuisine at the city’s world famous marketplaces and souks, while a visit to the Koutoubia Mosque, which dominates Marrakech’s skyline, is a must. Wander around some of the many museums the city has to offer, and marvel at the stunning architecture and art within them. For an authentic Moroccan experience, Marrakech is the place to head to.
Shop in the souks and markets
UNESCO World Heritage site Djemaa el-Fna marketplace is the main square in Marrakech, and is filled with food stalls and street performers. The site comes alive after sunset; inhale the delicious aroma of cooking kebabs as you file past snake charmers, fortune tellers, boxers and belly dancers, all performing to crowds of amazed onlookers. Sit by lantern light with a glass of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and watch the shows.
Wander over to the souks in the Medina, just north of Djemaa el-Fna, and spend an entire day getting lost in the maze-like marketplace. Enjoy haggling over the price of clothing and textiles, spices and baskets, as well as authentic Moroccan cuisine such as cooked snails.
Visit the mosques and museums
Marrakech’s fascinating mosques and museums are well worth a visit. The Koutoubia Mosque is an impressive sight on Marrakech’s horizon; the four copper globes on top of the minaret make it this city’s most recognisable symbol.
Marrakech’s wide choice of museums certainly doesn’t disappoint. The Maison de la Photographie houses an 8,000-strong collection of captivating photographs that were taken between 1870-1950, while the Douiria Mouassine holds a 17th-century reception apartment restored to its former glory, complete with intricate plaster and wood work. There is also the Dar Si Said Museum, showcasing beautiful 19th-century architecture and art, as well as a collection of artefacts comprising pottery, ceramics, weapons and a marble tub, which dates back to the 11th century.
What is the weather like in Marrakech?
In the height of the summer months, between June and August, the temperatures in Marrakech regularly exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, making it almost unbearable for many hours of the day.

I liked the organization, the car driver's treatment, a good professional, the Marrakech Riads a dream, excellent, cleanliness, attention, decoration and also perfect food. The hotels during the tour could be better and also the restaurants could be better. The wonderful desert experience, the very nice camp and the sensational camel ride.

The itinerary of the circuit is very good, it allows to see beautiful landscapes. The hotels are good but the rooms on the tour were sometimes a little sketchy (the cheapest I suppose). The proposed car (Stavic) was very good, very comfortable. The guide, Mohamed, was very friendly, helpful, he took good care of us, he knew how to adjust the circuit according to the weather conditions, nothing to say! Regarding the tours, including Marrakech with a guide, it was great, the information provided was useful and interesting. During the tour, we found that some tours / landscapes / villages lacked explanations of their history. The value for money circuit is very good. The proposed restoration during the tour is of good quality.

Traveling with a 4x4 that is very suitable for driving miles and driving in the sand dunes. Stop when you want to take pictures. The Riad Laora in Marrakech is very well located you can do a lot of things on foot. The cuisine in this riad is homemade and very tasty. Sleep in the desert and learn about Berber dances.

Unforgettable stay at the Sofitel Marrakech. Beautiful frame (I still feel this magic fragrance with the orange flower that follows us all over the corridors ...) The staff is very attentive (special mention to Ayoub at the front desk who sent us a nice cake with candle for my birthday and Souad for breakfast !!!) I also recommend the SPA (exceptional setting) and top care !!!!
