The Medina: A Living, Breathing Masterpiece
TThe Marrakech medina is an anarchic and lovely sight. Its colorful souks peddle spices, leather products, fancy lanterns, and carpets, among others. The streets are very narrow and weaving like strips of motorbikes, donkeys, and people who carry on with their lives. The riads and the historical buildings are a soothing and stunning contrast. To a photographer, this diversity is a challenge and an opportunity. You have to know how to look beyond the noise, and discover the instances of beauty and calm.
This is what we aim to achieve with our Photography Tour in Marrakech Medina to equip you with the skills and the confidence to make these captures.
Not only is your guide a tour leader, but he is also a photographer who nips and picks at the details and composition. They understand when to visit a certain spot at the best time of the day with the best light. They also train you to treat people with the respect that they deserve. This is our ethical style of photography and a pillar of our Moroccan travel philosophy. We do not want your photos to be an encroachment on the culture, but rather a celebration of it. On this basis of respect and authenticity is founded our luxury morocco tours.
