Day trip to Marrakech from Casablanca

This Casablanca to Marrakech day trip is for travellers who start or end their trip in Casablanca and don’t want to leave without seeing the red city: Jemaa el-Fna Square, the Koutoubia minaret, Bahia Palace, the Saadian Tombs, Majorelle Garden and the souks of the medina.

It’s a private tour: the vehicle and driver are just for your group. It’s 2.5 to 3 hours each way on the motorway, so you choose what to see depending on the time you have in Marrakech.

Early pick-up from your hotel in Casablanca and a motorway drive to Marrakech. There you have about 5 hours: most people start with the Koutoubia and Bahia Palace or the Saadian Tombs, wander the souks and finish in Jemaa el-Fna Square. If you prefer gardens, Majorelle is just outside the medina.

Mid-afternoon, back to Casablanca.

Yes, if it’s your only option: you see the essentials. But it means 5 to 6 hours in the car there and back, and Marrakech is better with a night there, when the square fills with food stalls. If you have a few days, our tours from Casablanca end in Marrakech, such as the 8-day tour.
