Marrakech with kids: where to stay, family hotels & things to do (2026)
Why we featured this post
Marrakech works well with little ones if you plan around the heat and the medina, and this toddler-focused guide shows how. It compares a riad with a resort, flags that many riads don't accept children under 12, and recommends a carrier over a pram (stroller) in the souks and a pre-booked transfer with a car seat. The daily rhythm is smart: sightsee in the morning, pool and nap in the afternoon, and catch Jemaa el-Fnaa at sunset. Three or four days is the sweet spot.
Things to do
- Wander the shaded Jardin Majorelle
- Take a guided walk through the medina souks
- See Jemaa el-Fnaa at sunset
- Ride a camel in the Palmeraie
- Day trip to the Atlas Mountains with older kids
