Explore the beautiful gardens of Marrakech and learn about their characteristics and history with our expert guide. You will be picked up from your hotel and then begin an incredible journey through the most beautiful gardens in Marrakech located in the heart of the city.

The first stop will be the Agdal Gardens where you will stroll through these fragrant alleys with a rich heritage and unparalleled beauty. Established in the 12th century by Sultan Abd al-Mu’min of the Almohad Caliphate, the botanical garden is sometimes referred to as the “Islamic Versailles”. On a clear day in winter, the view of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains is spectacular.

You will then reach the smaller Menara Gardens developed around 1156-57 as part of an ambitious city improvement program by Abd al-Mu’min. Join the locals who come to enjoy the cooling waters of the huge irrigation reservoir, or to have a picnic in the shade of the olive groves. Along with the Menara Gardens, the Agdal Gardens were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985.

Discover the famous Majorelle Garden (Le Jardin de Majorelle), known for its cobalt blue and its mini landscapes that take you on a sensory journey. Considered the masterpiece of painter, plant collector and study enthusiast, Jacques Majorelle, the garden opened to the public in 1947 was purchased by French couturier Yves Saint Laurent.
