Children will be amazed by the vast array of colours, flavours and smells that line the paths of the souks as they experience this unique culture firsthand.

The beautiful Koutoubia Mosque, situated on the outskirts of the Medina is really intriguing with its impressive detailed architecture. Whilst walking in the rose gardens alongside the mosque, you may hear the call to prayer. Afterwards the children can have even more fun playing and letting their imagination run wild in Cyber Park which is next door and will have a great day out.
Take a tour in a horse-drawn carriage around the city taking in all the sights. The children are sure to love being on an adventure and on the road to discovery. Visit the most popular sights in Marrakech such as the walls that surround the city, the various gates that lead into the old city and discover the history of Marrakech on your tour. If you really want to enjoy the ride and take in the wonderful scenery, there is no better time to go than at sunset.
The heart and soul of Marrakech, Jemaa el-Fna is a big square that will enchant the minds of children of all ages. This place will undoubtedly have you coming back for more as you will feel so involved. During the day, the square is just a big open space where a few snake charmers will excite children as they bewitch their cobras. It is in the late afternoon that the square comes alive as the crowds start to fill the space to see acrobats, musicians, storytellers, and entertainers. Jemaa el-Fna is filled with food stalls so you can try typical Moroccan cuisine in a fantastic, lively atmosphere.
There are plenty of tennis courts in Marrakech to have fun with the children and show off your best skills. If tennis is not your sport, why not opt for a round of golf instead? Villanovo can help you to organise tennis and golf lessons with an English speaking coach so do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
