Marrakesh Trip Overview
Travel with us toward the Seven Kingdoms.
Travelling from Marrakesh to Essaouira, we will follow Daenerys Targaryen and her dragons to discover Astapor.
Game of Thrones is well known for having breath-taking cinematography. The show runners are able to create such amazing backdrops, as they often use real-life locations. While Croatia, Iceland and Ireland are famous for being used as Game of Thrones filming locations, Morocco seems to have flown somewhat under the radar, even though many scenes have been filmed across the country over the years. In this tour we will explore the city of Astapor – in reality, the coastal town of Essaouira. Where Daenerys Targaryen’s got her Unsullied soldiers. And all the while you will be learning about the history and heritage of the area from your local tour guide.
