Guided excursion to the Gardens of Marrakesh

The gardens of Marrakesh are as famous as the medina itself and with or without a particular interest in gardening you will be sure to enjoy time spent in these beautiful retreats.

The Aguedal Garden is a popular stop for Moroccan families picnicking in the shade of the surrounding trees, while the Menara Garden is an agricultural estate of irrigated olive orchards. Be sure to visit the green tiled pavilion, set against the backdrop of the high Atlas Mountains — the views from here are simply stunning.

The Majorelle Gardens are famously owned by Yves Saint-Laurent. Founded by two French artists, Jacques and Louis Majorelle, these botanical gardens are immaculately maintained and also home to a small museum which displays the eclectic artwork of Yves Saint-Laurent.
