Luxury holidays in Marrakech

When to go

The souks are a dream for Christmas shopping, but the festive season is Marrakech’s prime time, so crowds and prices are at their peak. Summer is sweltering, but spring and autumn hit the sunny sweet spot – October, November and February are ideal months to visit.

Getting there

• Planes

  Marrakech Menara Airport is a 15-minute drive from the city centre, with direct flights from London, Paris and other major European cities.

• Automobiles

  All hotels can organise a pick-up from the airport, so skip the car rental and leave navigating the hectic city traffic to the professionals.
