Marrakesh was one of those places that surprised us in the best way. From colorful markets and beautiful palaces to the peaceful desert and busy city streets, every day felt different. If you are planning a short trip to Morocco, here is how we spent 4 days and 3 nights in Marrakesh, including where we stayed, what we did, where we ate, and some helpful tips.
Day 1: Arrival in Marrakesh
We arrived in Marrakesh at night, so we wanted an easy and stress-free transfer to our accommodation. Before our trip, we booked an airport transfer through GetYourGuide, which made everything very simple. Our driver was waiting for us at the airport, (normally, but he is quite late) and we were taken directly to our riad in the Medina.
Where We Stayed: Riad 1954

For our accommodation, we booked Riad 1954 through Bookingcom.
From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. The riad is beautifully decorated with traditional Moroccan design, creating a peaceful atmosphere away from the busy streets outside.
What we liked about Riad 1954:
- Great location inside the Medina
- Friendly and helpful staff
- Clean and comfortable rooms
- Courtyard and rooftop area is under renovated at the time of our stay.
The riad felt like a hidden oasis in the middle of the city. After a long journey, it was the perfect place to relax and prepare for our adventures ahead.
