Shirley May This museum it was the best place we visited in Ouarzazate. The person who welcomed us at the door was friendly and knowledgeable about the place. He showed us every room and explained everything. It was a nice experience, but at the end, he asked us for 50 dirhams for the entrance tickets (25 dirhams per person), which was not mentioned at the beginning of the visit. Additionally, he requested a small donation for his explanation, and we gave 20 dirhams. The visit itself was enjoyable, but I believe it would have been better if he mentioned the entrance fee beforehand. At the end, we felt a bit ambushed and had no choice but to pay.
Luca Mulfari What a great experience run by a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. We stumbled upon this site by accident, but it was a highlight of our trip. We learnt so much about the history of Arabs, Jews, and Berber people. It was fascinating to hear about how they lived side by side for so long. We cant recommend this enough. Make sure you visit!
Csaba Vigyikán If you're in Ouarzazate, don't miss it! Charming piece of history, beautiful artisan memories of a fading world, and a nice proof of Moroccan cultural coexistence. Last but not least, superb guide knowing everything about the Kasbah. Definitely worth a visit!
Elena Marotta Great tour to find more about the moroccan jewish community. We were there on a Sunday afternoon (5ish) and there was no queue at all. Our guide (Abdul) was super friendly and showed us all the many rooms of the Synagogue whilst telling us its history. A very nice spot to visit when in Ouarzazate. Don’t forget to tip the guys before leaving!
Daniel Druker Really interesting. Dates to the 1500's, and contains a very old synagogue and the rabbis quarters. Also serves as a museum for Jewish artifacts from across Morocco. So many very old books. We spent about 30 minutes exploring with the in-house guide. Makes me sad that two communities who lived together side by side for 1,200 years were torn apart by and after WWII. We tipped 100 Dirhams at the end for two people, which seemed appropriate.
