On this occasion not can speak of a neighbourhood, but of a forest, a garden formed by thousands of Palm trees found at the exit of the city of Marrakech. This oasis has been greatly reduced in recent years because of the indiscriminate felling and abusive constructions, in a way that now there are laws (don’t know if respected) that protect the palms, original inhabitants of an area that has become property millionaires/ACE and famous / ACE of all nationalities. Politicians, as designers of fashion, actors and actresses in Hollywood, and all kinds of cool people spend their holiday seasons in this beautiful area of Marrakech, isolated of noisy traffic, the metropolitan chaos and also really except to face with the real Morocco. There are many individual buildings surrounded by high walls to ensure the privacy of the mansions and gardens in la Palmeraie. There are numerous 5 star hotels and restaurants with music live. If what we want is to go to dinner one night at any of the premises we must plan before transport. If is you have own car, is better to be explained by someone in the city how to get to the site in question and, if possible, to draw us a plane since the Palmeraie does not usually appear in Marrakech maps because, as we have already said, is on the outskirts.
The other option is the taxi. Although the ideal is to put the counter, it will be very difficult to get it because when it comes to journeys to such remote areas taxi drivers refuse to use it, therefore one way remembers the price haggling before entering the vehicle. We must not pay more than 50 Dh. (5 euros). To turn everything is a bit more complicated because some restaurants are so far removed from taxi stops or well we ask our taxi driver for us to wait at the door while we are going to dinner, either by phone call a taxi company. Both options are expensive but we’re in la Palmeraie Luxury! You can also visit the Palmeraie during the day with Marrakech Tour Bus, a company that offers a tourist route through the city that includes a visit to the Palmeraie. The bus consists of two floors, top discovered (very careful if it is a sunny day). The price of tickets is around 12 euros per person and is valid for 24 hours.
The stops are in the sights of the city. Another nice way to see la Palmeraie is from the train. When is lean out the window and enjoy a wonderful landscape of endless Palm trees stretching for several kilometers coming to Marrakesh, just. Come to Marrakech to enjoy its wonderful Palmeraie, full of life, history and entertainment. The ochre city offers a culture and a fascinating tradition, monuments and countless tourist attractions, a delicious gastronomy and countless shopping opportunities. In addition, hotels in Marrakech are of great quality and very economical, especially the typical riads in Marrakech, full of charm and very affordable. Also you can stay in a wonderful villa in Marrakech, closer to the field, where the landscapes are spectacular and the inhabitants would welcome them with open arms.
