What budget should you plan for 1 week in Marrakech?

The budget for a stay of a week or more in Marrakech will depend on many factors, including the type of accommodation you choose, the activities you plan to do, the restaurants you frequent and the purchases you make. Here is a rough estimate of the budget to plan for 1 week in Marrakech, including the plane ticket!

Plane Ticket

The average price for a round trip from Paris is between 50 and 150 euros, this average will be lower or higher depending on the season in which you are traveling and any current promotions (certain flights departing from Lyon, Nantes, Bordeaux , Toulouse or Nice can also be found at this price).

Accommodation

Marrakech offers a wide variety of accommodation, from riads in the Medina to luxurious hotels in Hivernage. For a week’s stay, expect to spend around 300 to over 1500 euros per person, depending on the type of accommodation you choose.

Catering

Meal prices in Marrakech vary depending on where you are and the type of food served. On average, you can expect to spend between 5 and 30 euros per meal (per person) at a local restaurant. For a one-week stay, you can add 300 to 600 euros to your food budget.

Activities

Marrakech offers a wide range of activities, which can vary according to your desires. Discoveries of historical sites such as the Secret Gardens or the Bahia Palace cost around 5 to 20 euros per person. Excursions around Marrakech such as activities in the desert or a day at the Ouzoud Waterfalls cost around 30 to 50 euros per person. For a one-week stay, you can budget around 300 to 600 euros for activities.

Shopping Souvenir

You will find many places to buy your souvenirs in Marrakech, especially in the souks. Prices here vary widely, depending on your ability to haggle. Typical souvenirs that we recommend bringing back (depending on the space you have in your suitcase) are spices, jewelry, rugs, ceramics, etc. We advise you to always divide the announced price by 3 ( sometimes by 4), and start the negotiation from there. Refuse to pay more than half of the originally advertised price. For your week in Marrakech, you can budget around 100 euros for the purchase of your souvenirs.

Depending on your choices, an approximate budget for a one-week stay in Marrakech, including plane ticket, is between 600 and 3000 euros per person (all included). Of course, this budget can vary greatly depending on your personal choices, so it’s important to make an estimate based on your own needs and preferences.
