You'll visit top sights such as Jemaa el-Fnaa and the Medina.Kick off your afternoon in style with a guided visit to the UNESCO-listed Medina. Its streaming food carts, eye-catching bazaars and street merchants shouting to invite you into their stalls make the atmosphere truly electric.

The timing of this tour is wrong. It should be done earlier in the day to avoid the heat of the day. It would be better advertised as a beginners tour of Marrakech, we had been into the Sooks and Medina earlier in the week. The "makers" area was the best but of the tour, but it felt rushed to get to either the pharmacy or the souvenir shop. Both of these took a long time out of the tour.

I am glad I did the trip with a guide as the souks and medinas were like a maze, you could walk around for days. It was quite an experience walking through all the narrow streets nearly being run over by motorbikes that are allowed to drive through. What I didn’t like was the pharmacy even though I did buy a few things. It was a blatant sales pitch!! The only shopping we did was from one souk again an organised stop.

Enjoyed everything except the ‘arranged’ visit to the shop which was very crowded with goods and people. Very claustrophobic and overbearing. Enjoyed the Pharmacy. Informative and amusing and not pushed to buy anything if you don’t want to. Our guide was great. Kept us safe, with his knowledge and experience. Very entertaining.

Honestly a waste of money. Wish we'd just done it on our own. Booked expecting a shopping experience/opportunity but in reality we got given 30 minutes free time to shop in the square which had nothing like the amazing items in the souk. We loved the souk but had no chance to browse/buy as we were literally walked through to sit in a pharmacy for an hour listening to a talk about their products that turned out to be a sales opportunity & you weren't let out until they finished.

The cost £22 each. I did not feel was value. The ‘local guide’ was quite firm with us - we did not ask for his assistance.he took us to his ‘friends’ shop, this wasn’t the best price, he didn’t help get the best price. I felt uncomfortable throughout the transaction, He then proceeded to insist on a tip. We thought I.c in fee. We were 5 mins early at the meeting point and the group had already left, luckily we spotted them. The ‘chemist’ was good, though it is sale's pitch it was informative.

We really enjoyed the experience and so did our children aged 9-14. Great insight into Medinas history, great tour of the souks, seeing the square. We saw so much we would not of found by ourselves. Guide was really great and so insightful and he had someone on hand to help guide us as we shopped etc. The only let down was the pharmacy, he did a great talk but when the group barely bought anything (cheaper in England) the ‘pharmisist’ had a strop and was rude to even the people who did buy.

TUI's souks and medina tour in Marrakesh is a fantastic way to experience the city's vibrant heart. Our guide expertly navigated the bustling souks, offering insights into local crafts and traditions. We also explored significant historical sites within the medina, gaining a deeper appreciation for Marrakesh's rich history and architecture. The tour was well-organized, allowing us to soak in the atmosphere and observe local life. Highly recommended for an immersive and memorable experience.

The guide was knowledgeable and helpful . The tour covered quite an area of the Medina and we learnt about the history Unfortunately arriving at the cafe stop we were told no coffee or tea however we could help ourselves to a free cold drink from the fridge. We did not go up onto the roof terrace to see views which was disappointing. Overall though this was an excellent trip

Good Guide but difficult to hear. He needs a microphone as we saw other guides using. We felt that we were rushed along and didn't have time to see some of the interesting sites he pointed out. There wasn't time to ask questions or take photos. Although we knew from previous reviews that we would be ambushed at the pharmacy, the length of time we were kept there was way too long. Near the end of the tour we were asked if we wanted to shop, those of us who did were taken to one specific shop.

Too long in the pharmacie but we did appreciate the hour in the markets. A safe way of introducing you to Marrakesh and for that reason I would advise. Drink and a biscuit included

The event started half an hour late. It would have been nice to walk slower through the Souks and stop a few times to watch craftsmen make certain things. Less time in the pharmacy would then give us more time in the square.

Adbul was a perfect guide giving us knowledge of the local area and the place its self , The souks was brilliant especially the Crafting stores where you walk past but see them creating everything , The pharmacy was about 30 mins stop but it was good knowing what Morocco spices are used for no need to buy anything then through to the main square for free time , the only down point is the place is crazy for motorcycles and you sometimes separate from your group but the guide does wait for you

After having a terrible experience on another excursion with tui this one really made up for it. The whole experience was brilliant from start to finish even my kids 8 and 6 thoroughly enjoyed it. I felt so safe with our guides. The pharmacy stop was a bit long but it was enjoyable also. There was no pressure to buy anything, but I did buy a few goodies. I managed to get everything I wanted from the medina and I loved haggling. Would love to tour them again.

The guide was good and friendly. We stopped for a drink but only got 1 biscuit - more snacks would be better More time for shopping would have been nice too. The pharmacy bit did feel like a hard sell like we’d been taken there for them to sell us stuff. The coach was air conditioned which was nice. Please note the pick up time was the time the trip was 2pm some of the other pick ups didn’t happen until almost 3pm so a bit more communication would be better

The tour was great fun and very enjoyable. The guide was great and took us down through parts of the Souks that we hadn't seen on our own trip. We had plenty of time to look around any stalls/shops we wanted to and the guide kept an eye on us to keep 'harassment' from the shopkeepers to a minimum! This tour is great to give you an idea of where to go and what to see if you wanted to go back by yourself to explore or buy anything. Recommended!

When we learnt that we could have had the experience for much cheaper if we had arranged the guide ourself and a much more personal experience too, we were a little disappointed. However, the guide was really great. The tour was in some unbearable heat so would maybe switch the time to early morning before it gets too hot. We also found that the stalls in the main square weren’t really as good as the ones we were walking past on the tour of the souks. Would have liked some time to shop with them

While the tour itself was fantastic the pick up arrangements were a shambles. We weren’t staying in a hotel where a pickup was made so we booked pickup from the nearest which was Tui Blue Mefina Gardens. The meeting point was reception. We arrived in plenty of time and expected to be able to purchase lunch there. We were prevented from entering the grounds by security who told us our tickets were a scam! An English couple cane by who were staying there andcwere kind enough to ask at reception.

The souks were an experience and we enjoyed the colourful aspect however the stream of mopeds and bicycles weaving past us was hazardous and the noxious fumes from them really bad. We felt the chance to absorb the atmosphere was tainted by this. We expected to be guided towards good traders but only stopped at 1 an apothecary selling various potions and creams. We were then left to our own devices to shop. None of our party wanted to go back into the souks to inhale the fumes so we sat in a cafe

It was hard to keep an eye on the tour guide he was wearing grey dark robe so didn't stand out and walked very quickly and it's VERY busy so if he had a sign he could hold up or something on his clothing that stood out in the crowd would have been beneficial and more info on surroundings & culture would have been nice

This was a really good introduction to the souks and the medina area which I wish I’d taken a little earlier in my trip. I felt very safe and secure with the local guide, who was very knowledgeable about the area. I honestly think had I tried to go where he took us I would have got horribly lost! As always with these tours, we spent time in the local pharmacie where we were shown an extensive range of argan oil products, but these were good quality and the staff lovely.

Slightly disappointed that we did not have time to see e.g. bread making, metal working…these were emphasised throughout but we just walked past a bakery and peered in the door; same with the metal working. The trip to the “natural” pharmacy was very interesting but thought a lot of time was then wasted as the pharmacist went through each individual product asking if anyone wanted to buy it…could have told us all the info first then let individuals make purchases afterwards.

Most reviews said that the spice pharmacy element went on for too long - it was actually brilliant and the kids loved it. The pharmacist was funny and knowledgeable. Yes there was a hard sell at the end but all in good humour. The 'shopping' part of the tour was basically going in to one overpriced shop. We would have been better breaking off at this point and returning to the main square for additional free time. We were not made aware of free time so stayed with the group.

We had such an interesting tour around medina and the souks. Our guide was very knowledgable and we learned a lot about the history of the old town. We were worried based off of comments that the pharmacy stop was a waste of time however we really enjoyed it and picked up some bits to come home with, it seemed like others did too. We didn’t get much shopping time but I found haggling difficult anyway. Overall felt safe and had a lovely afternoon. The free drink was a nice touch with the heat.

Good experience for the people who visit for the first time, give you a chance to see and explore a part of the market and town, ..but a bit of rush and doesn't give you a chance to discover in just a few hours the places and things to see or buy what you really want being more like a fix routa.

Souks walk was great but the guide should have a tall flag as he walked fast and our group was big so difficult for anyone further back to keep in sight of him. I'm on my own with sons 10 and 12, we kept up to the guide which was fine. The pharmacy stop bit too long - obviously on commission for sales, but people enjoyed it and bought products. Pharmacy should be shorter to give more time in the square which was an amazing experience. It was good, better than than trying to do it on our own

We enjoyed the tour of the souks. The tour consisted of a bus drop-off at Jemaa el-Fna square, then a circular route. We spent 1h at a herbalist where they had a sales pitch which was fun but lengthy. We had a stop at a cafe with drinks included. We were taken to a shop with low quality wares with the shop owners pricing things too high. We wished we could have spent more time at the higher quality souks doing some bargain hunting. Overall enjoyed the tour and experiencing the medina.

Ben was informative regarding the history of Marrakech and gave us useful tips regarding the culture. The visit to the bakery was interesting as was the time spent at the Pharmacy. Our only gripe was not having enough time to purchase any gifts. It felt rushed and the shop was crowded so we didn't purchase anything which felt like a missed opportunity for both us and the shop keeper.

I enjoyed parts of this trip, but was surprised that a 3 hour walking tour included over an hour and a half sitting! The time spent in the spice and oil shop (around an hour) was excessive and the sales pitch was clear from the outset. There is not enough information contained in the itinerary regarding this. The parts learning about the history of the souks was enjoyable.

Good service until the point where the local guide Mikkey took over. I’ve been to the Medina on a previous holiday with my partner but not confident of going on my own I opted for this tour as a lone traveller. In my opinion he didn’t take us to the best part of the souks, gave no advice on ‘haggling’ and then proceeded to take us to a pharmacy and to an Ali Babas cave where he watched as my fellow tourists got fleeced, obviously he’s on commission with the owners. Could have been a lot better.

It was a really good tour. The guide was lovely and gave us very good recommendations regarding what to be careful of, to bargain prices, etc. We were a bit apprehensive with the pharmacy bit as all the reviews we saw said it was boring and useless but actually, me and my partner found it interesting. He showed us a series of natural/herbal products and explained what they are used for! Really interesting! And my partner had a neck/back massage for onyl 2€ :D Well spent afternoon. Worth the ££

Great to take as a first tour of the medina and souks! Our tour guide Ben was brilliant helping us to locate specific merchants for the items we wanted and provided a wonderful historical tour of the medina. The pharmacy was very informative but be prepared for a weird auction style sell of their items, they aren’t overly pushy but the whole thing felt a bit odd! Ending in the square was a nice touch and the guide was very clear or the dos and donts and how to avoid the scammers! Must do trip!

Good tour to get a full appreciation of the Medina and Souks with a guide. Yes, there were ‘buying opportunities’ but you don’t have to buy anything- no pressure was put on us. Watch out for motorbikes, cyclists and other vehicles! Our guide was very good, took us into a bread bakery, cafe for a free drink, pharmacy for talk on spices, oils etc and ended up in the main square. They warn you about the henna ladies - do not engage or shake hands, they will charge you a fortune ….

It was great to have a local guide to take us through all the souks as it is a warren of alleys and passages which we would never have tried ourselves for fear of getting completely lost. It was amazing to see all the different tradespeople making and selling their products. The only downside was the spice shop which was interesting to see and learn all about but there was a sales pitch at the end which was rather a hard sell.

Abdul our guide really made the tour, his English was fantastic and he was a mind full of really interesting info! The sights and sounds were amazing and the info at the pharmacy was great! Our trip was wonderful but slightly marred at the end by my daughter being grabbed by a lady doing henna in the square during our free time. The lady proceeded to decorate her hand as she was shouting no then followed us wanting money and couldn’t see she’d done anything wrong!

It was very helpful to be able to walk around with the guide, we definitely wouldn’t have seen as much and would have got lost without him! We thought the part in the pharmacy was a bit random (you basically get taken into a back room and get a sales pitch for all sorts of products mid tour). The big square is certainly an experience but quite upsetting if you care about animal welfare so that’s something to be aware of (monkeys in clothes and on leads and snakes drugged being ‘charmed’).

As a taster of the crazy world of the souxs this was brilliant the guides worked hard in making sure the group kept together in the tight narrow moped crazy streets, showing sights and information with a short refreshment break and some free time to explore the square or the street shops if you prefer. This initial tour gave us the confidence the venture back alone.

Brilliant, guide was very informative and any questions we had we asked along the way and he answered best he could. We would have never had seen the souks we did if we went alone. And probably would have got lost it was a maze and the guide knew the way around very well. Great value for money ??

We spent a long time, and money, in the spice shop. This could have been shortened.

Great guide though felt pressured to buy in shops we were taken to and ripped off. Don’t really need a guide to see what we saw

I was on my own as my partner was ill. The trip was lovely until we were given 1 hour on our own as the market. I was very scared and felt abandoned.

I think we thought there might be a little more time - it was a whistle stop tour of the soucks with no time to stop. Understand now why, totally, but maybe should be made clearer when booking. However this did give us the required knowledge to go back and do the "stopping" in our own time. Guide was sometimes difficult to hear and understand.

Excellent organisation, guide extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Locations we visited were amazing. Would have liked more opportunities to shop at the souks, rather than go to one large store at the end.

As a solo traveller it was a great introduction to the souks and the guide was very knowledgeable. However it was a very fast pace and therefore not a lot of time to enjoy what we were seeing.

Loved experienced the souks - would have been difficult to navigate by ourselves without the help of a friendly guide. Around half way through we all got taken to the back room of a local body shop and was given a 30 minute + sales pitch about their products. Not what we expected or was advertised. We then ended up in the main square without actually seeing and of the spice souks.
