La Sultana Hotels

Visit Medina for a city tour that focuses on its oldest streets and lived history. From La Sultana, you’ll step straight into the lanes that shaped Marrakech, moving between ramparts, small shops and houses built over several dynasties. With a guide, you follow a route that highlights how the Saadian, Almohad and Alaouite periods influenced the city’s layout and daily life.

The walk stays centred on practical details, long-standing trades, neighbourhood structures and the way the Medina adapted over time. You’ll cover sections on foot at an easy pace, giving you a clear sense of how this district became the centre of the red city’s identity.

Head to the Agafay Desert for a camel ride set in open terrain with clear views of the Atlas Mountains. From La Sultana, you travel a short distance before meeting your guide and being introduced to the route. Move at a steady pace across dry plains that suit the animals, giving you time to observe how they navigate the landscape.

The experience stays focused on the environment and the way the desert shifts in texture as you progress. Breaks are built in so you can take in the setting without rush. It’s a simple, grounded way to understand this area and spend time in a landscape shaped by long-standing traditions.

Ride a mountain bike along an off-road single track that takes you through rural areas just outside Marrakech. Starting from La Sultana, you’ll head towards the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, where the route reveals ochre soil, olive groves and stretches of palm trees. You pass stone-built Berber villages and farms that continue to use long-standing methods, giving you a direct sense of daily life in this region.

The terrain shifts as you progress, offering climbs, open sections and steady descents without forcing a technical pace. It’s a nice way to spend time in North Africa’s highest mountain range and understand its landscape through movement.
