Overview
From palm-lined fairways beneath the Atlas to links-style holes swept by Atlantic breezes, the 5 Days Golf Tour From Marrakech brings together the two finest golf settings in southern Morocco. The journey begins with a round and a guided city tour in Marrakech, then crosses the argan country to Essaouira, the windy UNESCO-listed port whose courses run among dunes and forest near the ocean.
With three rounds of golf, a guided visit of the red city and an unhurried day in the Essaouira medina, this Marrakech and Essaouira golf tour blends sport, culture and coastline in a single short trip. Private transfers, pre-arranged tee times and local drivers who know each club make it a relaxed Morocco golf holiday for golfers and non-golfers alike.

Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival in Marrakech ⇢ Hotel Transfer
At Marrakech Menara Airport, a private driver collects you and your clubs for the short transfer to your hotel, opening the 5 Days Golf Tour From Marrakech. The rest of the day is free to settle in, relax by the pool or take a first walk in the medina.
As evening falls, Jemaa el-Fnaa fills with musicians, storytellers and food stalls beneath the Koutoubia minaret, a vivid first night in Morocco.
Day 2
Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Marrakech City Tour
An early tee time brings the best conditions of the day: cool air, soft light and clear views of the High Atlas beyond the palm trees. Marrakech’s courses mix wide fairways, water hazards and fast greens, and caddies are available to help read the course.
In the afternoon, a licensed guide leads you through the medina: the Koutoubia Mosque, the Bahia Palace, the Saadian Tombs and the souks of spices, leather and lanterns, ending at Jemaa el-Fnaa as the lights come on.
Day 3
Marrakech ⇢ Argan Cooperative ⇢ Essaouira ⇢ Afternoon Golf
The road west crosses rolling plains and argan forests, where goats famously climb the trees to reach the fruit. A stop at a women’s argan oil cooperative shows how the precious oil is cracked, ground and pressed by hand.
You reach Essaouira around lunchtime, then head to the coast for an afternoon round. Courses near Essaouira, including one designed by Gary Player, are laid out among dunes and juniper forest, where the Atlantic wind adds a real test to every shot, a highlight of this Marrakech and Essaouira golf tour.
Day 4
Morning Golf ⇢ Essaouira Medina ⇢ Port ⇢ Ramparts
A morning round by the ocean is followed by an afternoon in the town. The UNESCO-listed Essaouira medina, built in the 18th century to a European design, is a calm grid of white houses, blue shutters and craft workshops of thuya wood and silver.
Walk to the fishing port, full of blue boats and grilled seafood stalls, then along the Skala ramparts, where old cannons face the waves at sunset.
Day 5
Essaouira ⇢ Marrakech ⇢ Departure
After breakfast, the road leads back to Marrakech, about 3 hours away, through argan country and wide plains. The 5 Days Golf Tour From Marrakech ends at Marrakech Menara Airport or your hotel, in time for your onward journey.
