Overview
Your guide welcomes you at your cruise port, ready to begin your journey from Casablanca inland to the imperial city of Marrakesh.
Your sightseeing tour takes you to the most historic landmarks around the city. The Koutoubia Mosque, also named the Mosque of the Booksellers, has impressive minerat towers and brightly colored golden domes. Closed to non- Muslims you will still be able to marvel at this stunning building and explore its grounds.
Set against the backdrop of the Atlas Mountains will be the Menara Gardens. Located west of the city, these botanical gardens date back to the 12th century and are home to the stunning pavilion with its small green pyramid-shaped roof.
Discover the history of the site before passing over to the 15th century Saadian Tombs. Here you can admire your surroundings and the gardens of the Bahia Palace. Built in the late 19th century, it intended to be the greatest palace of its time and its gardens reflect the meaning of the name, "brilliance".
Enjoy some time out for a local lunch before heading over to the medieval Medina where you can meander through the narrow streets. Soak up the atmosphere as you make your way past the many shops and artisans workshops which will bring you to the vast Djemaa el-Fna Square.
Still the main square used by locals and tourists alike, its the perfect place to enable you to absorb the open-air theatre atmosphere and its non-stop entertainment. Be ready to be entertained by an array storyteller, singers, acrobats, snake charmers, monkey tamers and more! This will be a most thrilling experience.
No trip to Morocco would be complete without trying the transport of the locals, enjoy a short camel ride in Palmeraie.
With your Moroccan adventure now over, you can board your transportation and take in the views as you make the journey.
You will return to your cruise port with plenty of time for your ship's departure from port.
