The Slat Al Azama Synagogue, also known as Lazama Synagogue, is one of the oldest synagogues in Marrakech, dating back to around 1492. Located in the historic Mellah (Jewish quarter), it was founded by Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain. The synagogue features traditional Moroccan decoration, a central courtyard, and a prayer hall.

This vibrant and bustling covered souk features a diverse range of goods including colorful textiles, traditional Moroccan clothes, souvenirs, spices, leather products, and artisanal crafts.

Tahar Baba was a great tour guide—knowledgeable, engaging, fun to be with. We thoroughly enjoyed our day in Marrakech with him and felt that we got a great overview of the sites and markets with someone who really knew his city.
informative guide at the palace, helpful and friendly to all of us (group of 14), good lunch place recommended by Tahar as well
Excellent in everywhere, most informative and helpful. To be recommended. most experienced guide who knew everything that we asked.
Insightful and informative tour. We visited Bahia Palace, souks and apothecary. Just the right amount of time. Would recommend
We had a wonderful day in Marrakech with our guide Tahar. It is our first trip to Morocco and he gave us a very good insight into the history and culture of the country. We enjoyed all the visits on the itinerary. We never felt rushed and Yahar did not force the usual visit to a carpet shop on us! We would recommend Tahar to show you around Marrakech.
