The tour was of the Koutoubia Mosque garden and the Marjorelle garden, both lovely. This was not explained in the Get Your Guide listing for this excursion. Unfortunately, I had previously booked and done a full day tour of Marrakech and that tour also covered the Koutoubia garden and the Marjorelle garden so it was a duplicate. I am not complaining - I enjoyed both the second time. However people need to know exactly what they are getting so they can decide for themselves whether to book or not.
