Marrakech Through the Eyes of Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent fell in love with Marrakech in 1966, and the city shaped his art for the rest of his life. This Yves Saint Laurent Museum Marrakech tour brings that story to life: a private, refined half day visiting the striking Musée YSL by Studio KO, the enchanting Jardin Majorelle the designer rescued and restored, and the Berber Museum that celebrates the Amazigh culture he so admired. With a cultured local guide and door-to-door pickup from your riad, it’s the dream outing for lovers of fashion, art, design and gardens — and a beautiful complement to our half-day city tour.

What You’ll Discover

Three connected treasures — plus the stories that link them.

Contemporary museum architecture and refined design in Marrakech

Musée Yves Saint Laurent

A striking terracotta building by Studio KO housing a permanent collection of YSL haute couture — sketches, garments and the genius of a fashion revolutionary.

The cobalt-blue Jardin Majorelle gardens loved by Yves Saint Laurent

Jardin Majorelle

The cobalt-blue garden YSL and Pierre Bergé saved from demolition — bamboo, cacti and lily ponds in the colour the artist made famous, with the YSL memorial.

Berber Museum collection of Amazigh jewellery, textiles and artifacts

The Berber Museum

Inside Villa Oasis’ former studio, a dazzling collection of Amazigh jewellery, textiles, weapons and crafts — the indigenous culture that inspired the designer.
