A Week In Marrakech With Kids

This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the Saadian Tombs, which are a set of buildings with beautiful and intricate decorations dating to the early 1600s. The fun fact is that a subsequent dynasty (which didn’t care for the Saadian Dynasty) a few decades later hid the entrance to the tombs and they were completely forgotten (even though they’re right in the city). It wasn’t until 1917 that the tombs were rediscovered through aerial photography!

Highlights: The tombs are beautiful and intricate, and they are a fascinating glimpse into the past ✨
