Itinéraire

1. We will start by visiting the workshops of local artisans (leather goods, blacksmiths, carpenters, dyers, etc. and many others). We will visit some of the best showrooms, bazaars and shops, to discover the best products of our crafts, which one cannot find at first glance! From furniture to jewelry, lamps, accessories, rugs and Caftan… everything is in this one-of-a-kind tour!

   2,5 h

2. The dyers' souk is located in the Medina, near the Mouassine spring and the mosque of the same name, in the western half of the tangle of streets. Although this souk lost its activity several years ago with the increasing use of industrial dyes, you can still see some small workshops where traditional dyeing is still practiced.

3. Considered the main artery of the souks of the Medina, Souk Semmarine is accessible from Place Jemaa El Fna, in a derb (medina alley) of the same name. A name that it takes from the farriers who once occupied this strategic place to shoe the animals of the caravanners, while the latter did their usual shopping. Today, the Souk Semmarine is a very colorful shopping avenue where you can find mainly merchants of fabrics, souvenirs, crafts but also unique addresses for Moroccan antiques. It represents the entrance to the specialized souks: spices, carpets, fabrics, slippers... A veritable Ali Baba's cave.

About Marrakech

Au pied de l'Atlas, Marrakech aux remparts rouges est célèbre pour sa médina labyrinthique, sa place animée, ses riads paisibles et ses jardins.

Jemaa el-Fna, la grande place au centre de la médina, change de caractère au fil de la journée : marchands de jus et charmeurs de serpents le matin, étals fumants et musiciens après la tombée de la nuit. Le minaret de la mosquée de la Koutoubia s'élève à proximité comme emblème de la ville, et les souks s'étendent au nord dans un lacis de ruelles où l'on vend cuir, lanternes, tapis et épices.

Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
