Meet your guide on the square for a short introduction to the medina and how it is laid out.
This Marrakech walking tour covers the heart of the medina in about three hours: Jemaa el-Fna, the main souk streets, the spice square of Rahba Kedima and the craft quarters where metal, leather and wool are still worked by hand. Your guide explains what you are looking at and finds the way through lanes where most visitors get lost.
The walk runs in the morning or the afternoon, as a private tour or for a group, at the pace that suits you. If shopping is the main reason for your visit, the Souk Shopping Tour spends more time in the stores and workshops; for the palaces and the madrasa, see the Palaces & Monuments Tour.

Yes. Most shops open every day; on Fridays some close for a few hours around midday prayers, so a morning or late-afternoon walk works best.
Comfortable shoes for uneven lanes. Clothing that covers shoulders and knees is appreciated in the medina.
