Description
100% Tailor-made | Private | Off the beaten path | All inclusive On this one hour and a half open-air adventure, you can either choose to immerse yourself in the quaint Marrakech of the 1920s, discover the most authentic neighbourhoods of the Medina or enjoy a shot of greenery in the palm grove. With its ancient Art Deco buildings, its former open-air cinema, the very first hotel built in 1918 and its dusty clock shop, the 1920s Gueliz district testifies of the daily life during the former French Protectorate. A ride in History. If you decide to ride through the stunning Medina of Marrakech. Witness the local life in the Kasbah district, in the Mellah district or at the flea market in Bad El Khemiss taking place every Thursday and Sunday. In the palm grove, you will understand how this once fertile oasis, gave birth to the entire Tensift region almost a thousand years ago thanks to its ingenious underground irrigation systems.

INSIDERS EXPERIENCE ❤️
We had such a great time exploring Marrakech with Youbi and the team from Insiders! 🏍️ The sidecar was such a fun way to see the city, especially the parts we would never have discovered on our own. We went through the Medina, local neighborhoods, Gueliz and even out towards the Palmeraie. Youbi was really friendly, relaxed and full of interesting little stories about Marrakech. It honestly felt less like a tour and more like having a local friend show us around. Such a fun experience and definitely one of the highlights of our trip! 🇲🇦

Side car sightseeing in Marrakech
Great way to see parts of the city that you don’t get walking in the Medina. Our drivers were Tissa, Hiba, Fatima, and Hillary. They did a wonderful job as drivers and ambassadors. Highly recommend the trip. Of course, Fatima is the best.👏

Excelent tour guide
This ride was phenomenal. Me and my sister went a few days ago ( september ) and had the best time getting to know the city better. Our guide Tissa was excelent. She was very nice, drives great, speaks English great and is open to us asking a bunch of questions, because of her this tour was really a ride we will remember forever. The only reason the value for money is 4/5 is because its 220€ for 1.5h so its very expensive, other than that it was excelent!

An unforgettable experience with amazing hospitality
Our experience was truly beyond wonderful! Hiba and Oumaima were absolutely amazing and made the whole experience even more special. They were incredibly kind, welcoming and attentive, especially with the children. They went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable, happy and cared for, and they really gave them so much attention and made them feel special. Their kindness, patience and lovely attitude made such a difference. Thank you, Hiba gortat and Oumaima, for making our experience so beautiful and memorable. We truly appreciated everything! ❤️
