The tanner's quarter in Marrakech is one of the numerous tourist attractions in the city. It is still within the city wall of the medina, but a little out of the way from the well-known Djemaa el Fna. Usually you will not find it by chance, but you have to search for it.

Tugs try to give you a "free" guide and then go to a shop with you where you are urged to buy something. Agree PREVIOUSLY with the "guide" a fixed price and give him after urge not more than this price. Only go to the Gerber area and not into the shops. Did 70 Dirham and then had to flee, because there was a little displeasure.

Very interesting to see the Gerber shop from the past. You get mint against the ammonia smell. Be careful who you talk to there, otherwise you end up in a leather shop

Sometimes you are told from afar that you absolutely have to go to the tanners' quarter because it is the last day of the Berber market there. This actually doesn't exist, but the boys have achieved their goal. Guiding tourists to the tanners. When you get there, you will be given the mentioned mint in your hand. From then on, clear communication is the order of the day. What you are willing to pay for a tour and what you are not. If in doubt, go straight back. Otherwise, it's very interesting how the workers there go about tanning the hides under what safety conditions...
