Imperial City
Marrakech, over 1,000 years old, rests in the shadow of the Atlas mountains. Situated at the geographical heart of the country, it is the first great city, north of the Sahara and the capital of the Southern region of Morocco.
Marrakech is one of Morocco’s four great imperial cities and upon arrival, places you in a unique North African setting and instantly ‘heady’ atmosphere. This great imperial city remains the commercial capital for the High Atlas region and the Sahara.
The rose pink medieval walls of this ancient city sit low beneath the high peaks of the Atlas mountain range, where the towering palm trees jostle for a position above the medieval ramparts and where nesting pink storks make each vacant turret their home.
Colour & Sparkle Day & Night
Marrakech’s medieval medina within the city walls is a UNESCO world heritage site and home to a dizzying array of souks, markets and narrow alleyways, quite simply the medina is home to another world!
A world brimming with sequined slippers, silks, multicoloured carpets, antiques, lanterns, spices, food items, jewellery and just about any item that comes to mind can be found here. Often crafted in front of your eyes and displayed, in either pool of dazzling sunlight or shadowy light. Marrakech’s souks are considered to be the finest in Morocco However we will leave that consideration for you to determine!
The Artisan
The sights, sounds and scents of centuries-old trade will carry you back in time, think spices, perfume oils, a vast treasure trove of wares and the artisan. Marrakech and Morocco, as a country, still has a commitment to the handmade and the Medina represents a hive of artistic and trading activity.
However when you don’t want to have to haggle, head to Marrakech’s Ville Nouvelle. The new town is home to upmarket retailing, European style cafes, some of the city’s best restaurants and exotic, hip clubs and bars.
The Greatest Show On Earth
Marrakech also a city of spectacular historic palaces, tombs and mosques, seductive hotels and riads, restaurants and cafes, galleries, museums and the iconic square of Jemaa el Fna.
Here as dusk falls, a hundred chefs with grills in tow, create pop up food stalls and restaurants and performers, artists and musicians gather to entertain mesmerised crowds each and every night. It is almost impossible not to be drawn to the square at sunset, and enter into one of the greatest shows on earth. By nightfall, you really will feel that you have entered into another time, another place, another world.
Drama already in progress everywhere you look!
Green Meditation

Our Award-Winning Service
My now wife is Moroccan, and we wanted to organize a pre-wedding trip for our friends and my family members who wanted to take in the sights before our wedding in Marrakech. The group quickly ballooned beyond our wildest expectations with 63 people wanting to join in! We had made arrangements with a different tour company who mysteriously cancelled on us several months after we thought everything was all set. We scrambled at short notice to find another tour company and are so happy we found Mor'hara. I will never forget! I cannot recommend this company enough for large or small group travel.

My sister and I had talked about visiting Morocco for several years. How lucky we were that she found Mor'hara Morocco Tours. Our 10-day trip was planned in detail with assistance from Liz and from the first day that we were picked up at the airport by Hassan we set sail on a fabulous journey through Morocco. Camel riding into the desert, traversing the Atlas Mountains, shopping in Marrakech, tasting all kinds of exotic foods, interacting with local people and their children - day after day of wonderfully exciting activities. Hassan was the ideal guide- informative, funny, engaging. This adventure was truly the trip of a lifetime.

The experience Morhara Morocco Tours provided us was "simply" unforgettable. Perfect from all service perspectives (logistics, 4x4 vehicles, amazing accommodations and in the camp, cultural content, routes, spectacular food, personnel, flexibility and security) and more importantly to me, everything was handled with care, love and passion by Hassan, our guide and leader of the tour. Hassan was great, generous and seemed to be driven by the ambition to make this tour an outstanding event for all us. We are deeply thankful and happy with your services.

I don't even know where to start! Hassan was an incredible guide, translator, driver, coordinator during our entire time in Morocco. We were female travelers and felt very safe with Hassan and had a great time from start to finish. The desert tour was unforgettable. We learned how to cook tajine, rode camels, climbed sand dunes, saw beautiful Kasbahs, went off-roading, and glamped like pros! We had a wonderful, surreal experience and I would 100% recommend Hassan and Liz's company. Our trip exceeded my expectations and it was all thanks to Hassan and Liz at Morhara.

I contacted Morhara due to their great reviews and I couldn't be happier with my decision. We had a once in a lifetime experience. The trip was well paced and included the flexibility you need travelling with young children. A lot of the success of the trip was due to our lovely driver Hafid, my children and my husband and I all loved him! In turn his love for his country, especially the Sahara, was infectious and we truly felt like we saw the real Morocco. We can't wait to come back when the children are older, Morocco is such a beautiful, friendly country.

As a group of 5, we spent wonderful 11 days in Southern Morocco. From the very first contact, we were pleased with the personalized contact and arrangements of our private tour and then... we arrived in Morocco and it was even better! Hassan who was guiding us proved to be extremely friendly, helpful and informative and made us feel relaxed and comfortable during the whole journey. If you are looking for a first-class service and personalized, friendly assistance while in Morocco I can clearly recommend you get in touch with Liz and Hassan of Mor'hara Tours. Thank you both for all your efforts and fantastic holiday we had on and off the 'beaten' visitor track!

My husband and I just got back from our holiday in Morocco, and we had the best time, thanks to Mor'hara. During the planning process, Liz and Hassan (owners) are extremely responsive and provided comprehensive information. Now that we have travelled with them, I am even more supportive of their business and we greatly enjoyed our time with Hafid, our driver. I would highly recommend traveling with Hafid and Mor'hara. Even though we only interacted with Liz and Hassan via e-mail, I feel like part of the family. Thank you team Mor'hara for the amazing experience and memories!

This is the company to hire if you want an authentic and unforgettable experience in Morocco. Hassan will go out of his way to make you fall in love with Morocco. Our experience in the Sahara was exceptional. We never once felt lost or out of place as Hassan made sure to make us feel like Morocco was our home too. We didn't feel like we were over paying, and every recommendation came with genuine intention for us to have a once in a lifetime experience in Morocco. I wish we had more time to see the entire country with this tour company.
