It is situated in a tranquil, pedestrian-only zone, a few minutes walk from the Bab Doukkala Mosque and 10 minutes' walk from the legendary markets and souks of Djemaa El Fna.

 

Within a few minutes of leaving Riad Al Idrisi, you are in the bustling heart of Marrakech's old town with a wealth of markets, cafés, restaurants, mosques, old city walls and other marvels.

 

 

Several airlines serve Marrakech's Menara airport including:

 

 

Many people choose to travel overland to Marrakech, making the crossing by ferry to Tangiers across the Straits of Gibraltar. The principal crossing points in Spain are in Algeciras and Tarifa. There are also ferry services from Gibraltar.

The train journey from Tangiers to Marrakech is approximately 8 hours. Trains are generally an affordable and reliable way of travelling within Morocco.

 

If you are using our Airport Transfer Service (which we highly recommend), the driver will call us and one of us will meet you outside the Bab Doukkala Mosque which is located just before the start of the pedestrian-only zone where Riad Al Idrisi is situated.  

 

If you are making your own way to the Riad, you should similarly navigate your way to the front of Bab Doukkala Mosque on Rue Fatima Zohra - this is the furthest that a car can go.  It is a substantial landmark and any taxi driver will be able to find it without any difficulty.  

 

With the main entrance to the Mosque on your right, follow the road around to the right and then continue straight onwards along a pedestrian-only alley. After about 15 yards, you will come onto a small street lined with shops. Cross over (slightly to the right) and go into another pedestrian-only alley underneath an archway with a sign saying "Derb Sidi Lmassenou Ali ".

 

Follow this alleyway (it turns left fairly soon and then wends its way broadly in the same direction after that) until you come to the second turning on the left. If you are looking down the correct turning, you should see a sort of bridge joining the buildings on either side of the alley. Follow this alley for about 10 yards. You will come to a little square. Riad Al Idrisi is immediately on the right.
