A private food tour costs clearly more than a shared walk, but no one else joins your group. You set the pace, the guide can skip a dish you do not want, and questions get answered at the stall instead of on the way to the next one.

What private means here

Urban Adventures lists its night food tour as a small-group or private tour with up to twelve guests, but on this booking platform only the private option is offered. That explains why it costs well above the shared walks. Withlocals sells its walk as private from the start. Marrakech Guided Experience offers a private option next to its shared tour; the price on this site is the shared one, and the booking page shows the private price once you select it. At the moment the private tours start at €79 (Withlocals) and €138 (Urban Adventures) per person, while the shared version of the Café de France walk starts at €43.

The private evenings

The Urban Adventures tour meets at Café de France and works its way through the souks with olives, pastries, harira with dates and chebakia, then sfenj or msemen with mint tea. It ends with dinner at a stall on the square: tangia, or a vegetarian tagine. Vegetarian and vegan guests are catered for, gluten intolerance is not. Children up to five join free, and the operator asks for clothing that covers shoulders and knees.

Withlocals starts on Tinsmiths Square in the Mellah, in front of Le Tanjia restaurant, and walks past the Mellah market towards El Badii Palace and the Koutoubia. You get ten tastings from savoury to sweet, including dates and a vegetable tanjia, plus two soft drinks. Tell the host at the start if you are vegetarian and the menu is adapted. The listing is not suitable for people with limited mobility.

Not private, but small

If the price gap is too wide, the small-group tours cap their groups at eight or ten guests. Private sessions also exist among the cooking classes: the Urban Adventures tajine class has a private option, and Khmisa Workshops takes private groups on request.

Guests on the private tours

Both hosts are praised by name, for their eye for detail and for the local spots they know. One guest found the Urban Adventures walk much shorter than the three hours advertised.

“Yussef is a fantastic guide with an eye for detail. An artist in his field. Thank you for the tour and for sharing all the beautiful and delicious things in your city.”

Trevor · United Kingdom · February 2026 Private food tour · Withlocals
“Tour was advertised as three hours and we booked to provide an evening education and experience. It was 1 hour and 20 minutes at best. The tanjia was good and olive market. The snails were completely unnecessary and most people in the group left them after trying a single one.”

FAQ

Is there a private food tour in Marrakech?

Yes. Withlocals and Urban Adventures sell their food tours on this platform as private tours, and Marrakech Guided Experience has a private option alongside its shared evening walk.

Why does the Urban Adventures food tour cost so much more?

On this booking platform it is only sold as a private tour, so the price covers a guide for your group alone, plus a full dinner on Jemaa el-Fnaa.

Can children join a private food tour?

On the Urban Adventures tour, children up to five join free. For the other tours, check the age rules on the booking page.

Do private food tours pick you up at the hotel?

No. Each one starts at a meeting point in the medina: Café de France on Jemaa el-Fnaa or Tinsmiths Square in the Mellah.
