If you have a driver and guide for the day, this is a great stop, but if you have to hire a taxi and then pay the 25 dirham entrance as a budget traveler, and if you don't have a particular interest in the Berber culture or Yves Saint Laurent, then you might be disappointed, though it is beautiful.

Small but nice, very tourist orientated. Gardens are pretty but pricey given how long it takes to wander through.

Nothing to dislike; small gardens with a good variety of plants. All very well maintained to a high standard, a large team of gardeners and maintenance. Bookshop, cafe and toilets. A pleasant hour.

The Jardin is nice, but smaller than I thought, with many tourists going through. Worth the visit, but do not expect too much.

I loved the Jardin Majorelle. What a spectacularly beautiful place and in spite of the crowds my visit was rather peaceful and serene. If you're visiting Marrakech, this place is a "must see" in my opinion. The garden is laid out very well with both tropical plants and cacti from all over the world. The electric cobalt blue paint they... More

Great place. Interesting history owned by yves saint laurent and his late partner. Interesting how they over look his their sexuality. We went at 11:00 am very crowded lots of tour buses. Our guide explained that if we had time it would have been better to come in the afternoon less people. This is a must see.

If you visit Marrakech you cannot miss the Jardin Majorelle. The garden is lovely and vibrant - full of flowers and color! I advise you to arrive very early if you want to enjoy the gardens before the busloads of tourists arrive - I went at 9.15 am and had about 15 minutes before it was flooded with people. Get... More

Lovely gardens- no need to do them on a tour: much cheaper just to walk from town or get a caleche. A good place to get your breath back after the souks!

A beautiful and peaceful garden with quite a history. The profusion of plants and the colour are magnificent. We had coffee before we walked around in a pleasant outdoor restaurant.We were shielded from the sun by the tall trees and plants. The cactus plants were very dramatic.

Very beautiful, stunning, interesting and incredibly calming. I had no idea there were so many varieties of cacti and palm trees from around the world. I particularly loved the use of bright colours in the garden. It was very inspirational.
