Day 2
Exploring the souks of Marrakech
It's our first full day as a group, and we are visiting Marrakech's hotspots with our local guide! We'll start at Jardin Majorelle, which is an absolute dream. It was created in 1922, and more recently, in 1980, it was bought by Yves Saint Laurent, who wanted to save it from being turned into a hotel. Thank goodness he did because it is a super special place to visit! Once we've seen all of the iconic spots, we'll head back to the medina for some shopping. Markets in Morocco are unlike anywhere else, so dust off your haggling skills, gals!! In the evening, we'll go out for a group dinner overlooking the centre of the medina.

Take in the beautiful views as we cross the Tichka Pass and get some gorgeous photos along the way. Then, we’ll head over to the Imlil cascades for a waterfall walk. This walk is right at the start of the infamous Mount Toubkal - don't worry, it’s not too strenuous, but it does give a real taste of mountain trek!
