Top Marrakech Private Sightseeing Tours - page 63

This was a really lovely and novel way to navigate the souks and sights particularly in high August heat; it was great for my 3 teenagers who weeeent keen to explore but the Tuk Tuk meant they didn’t have to walk! Booking was easy and we had good communication with the tour operator the night before with a clear pick up and drop off point identified by a photo that all the locals are familiar with! We were kindly given 2 tuk tuks for the 5 of us (2 adults, 19,18 and 14) which we were very grateful for because we would have really struggled squeezed into one. The tour was great; our drivers were fab navigating round the tight streets and crazy traffic of all types! We whizzed through the medina’s and also had a longer stop in one so we could have plenty of shopping time which is what we really wanted to do and it was nice knowing we had our driver close by. We visited the secret garden and then just stopped and viewed the other sights from outside as we weren’t bothered by entering and time would have been tight as we chose to potter the souks. The lovely sweets and water were very welcomed by us too. The drivers were really lovely and happy to be flexible to our tour. Would highly recommend as an alternative tour. We were sent guides to listen to the day before as this is clearly offered as a driver tuk tuk tour rather than a guided tour. But again due to the high intense heat this was perfect for our group. I had considered a walking tour instead with a tour guide but we would definitely have found this tough in August. If you would love to be toured round the sights with an audio guide and can flexibility and are happy to do background research then this is a good option!
