The Marrakech City Guides deal with what every visitor worries about: which stalls on Jemaa el-Fna are fair, where Marrakchis line up for lunch, how to see Majorelle and the palaces without queuing, where you can actually order a drink and how to reach Essaouira or the High Atlas without a packed tour. Each guide is a short, straight-talking list with the reason to go, what to order or ask for and one practical tip per place, and it opens in your browser the moment you pay.

Three places from the guides
Al Fassia Guéliz
Boulevard Mohamed Zerktouni, Gueliz
A restaurant run entirely by women that sets the bar for Moroccan dinners in the new town. Open with the spread of 15 small salads, then pick lemon chicken or lamb with prunes. Wine is on the list. From the food guide.
El Badi Palace
Ksibat Nhass, Mellah
The vast shell of a 16th-century Saadian palace, with sunken orange gardens and storks nesting on the walls. Little decoration is left, but the size impresses, and the roof terraces look out over the Mellah. From the things to do guide.
Skala de la Ville
Rue Laalouj, Essaouira medina
The old fort’s rampart walk above the Atlantic, lined with cannons, with thuya-wood carvers working in the vaults below. Walking it costs nothing, and the light is best as the sun goes down. From the day trips guide.
Plan your Marrakech days
Day one: start early in the medina with the things to do guide, eat mechoui or tanjia for lunch from the food guide, walk the souks in the afternoon and watch the square fill up from a rooftop before a drink in a licensed bar from the nightlife guide. Day two: take the coach to Essaouira or head into the Ourika valley with the day trips guide, or stay for Gueliz and an evening of Moroccan cooking. For a rainy or slow day, pair a quiet museum such as Dar Si Said with a long hammam, the budget guide’s cheap lunches and, with children, the family guide’s indoor play.
