A Gueliz Bar Crawl

Four stops, one evening. Polished, modern cocktail rooms.

This is a working bar crawl through Gueliz, Marrakech's most concentrated drinking neighbourhood. Polished, modern cocktail rooms. Four stops, one evening, mapped by editors who actually drink here on Friday nights.

The order matters. Start polished, peak in the middle, end somewhere quieter. Every room listed below is within a 10-minute walk of the next one — that's the value of a neighbourhood crawl.

Total time: about five hours. Total spend: depends on you, but plan £60-£100 per person. Save this page, send it to whoever you're meeting, and let Gueliz take care of the rest.
