Welcome to our three-day trip to Marrakech, Morocco! In this video, we will take you on a journey through the vibrant streets of the city, exploring its rich culture, delicious food, and stunning architecture. Time codes, details and links to places below.

On day one, we make our way from home to Casablanca, before taking a train across Morocco to Marrakech. Arriving in the afternoon, we check into our riad (Le Riad Monceau) before grabbing dinner at the popular Terrasse des epices. After dinner, we walk around the bustling and energetic Jemaa el-Fnaa square.

On day two, we join an Airbnb tour with the fantastic Jamal. Taking us on a 4-hour tour of the historic Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, visit the Koutoubia Mosque, one of the largest and most beautiful mosques in Marrakech. Other stops include the beautiful Bahia Palace, a 19th-century palace with stunning gardens and intricate architecture, the Ben Youssef school, once a center for Islamic learning scholarship.

After the Airbnb tour, we stop off at the opulent Royal Mansour for a very special lunch, touring the grounds and spa. We finish day two with a pool side dinner at our riad listening to live jazz and delicious Moroccan fusion cuisine.

In part two of this series, we'll spend another day in Marrakech before heading back to Casablanca.
