Majorelle, YSL and Berber Museum: combined ticket or separate visits?
Updated September 18, 2026 · 6 min read
Three sites, practically one address: the Jardin Majorelle, the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts — which sits inside the garden — and the Yves Saint Laurent Museum Marrakech, across Rue Yves Saint Laurent. All three belong to the same foundation, are sold together or separately, and don’t close on the same days. That last point decides almost everything.
We read the official ticketing of the Jardin Majorelle Foundation, the Yves Saint Laurent Museum’s website and the booking pages for the combined tickets sold online on 18 September 2026.
The Wednesday trap
The Yves Saint Laurent Museum Marrakech is open every day except Wednesday. The Jardin Majorelle, on the other hand, opens seven days a week, and so does the Berber Museum. The private garden of Villa Oasis follows the YSL Museum: closed on Wednesday.
A combined ticket bought for a Wednesday makes you pay for three sites to see two. None of the booking pages we read warn you of this when you choose a date; the information sits on the foundation’s website, not in the checkout flow.
Worth noting too: the foundation’s pages don’t all give the same closing time for the YSL Museum. Its homepage and ticketing page state 10 am to 6:30 pm with last entry at 6 pm; its “useful information” page states 10 am to 6 pm with last entry at 5:30 pm. Plan around the stricter schedule: arriving at 5:45 pm might be enough, or it might not.
The second trap: the temporary exhibition gallery
The foundation states on its ticketing page that the Yves Saint Laurent Museum’s temporary exhibition gallery is closed from Monday 14 September to Friday 2 October 2026, while the next exhibition is being installed, and that it reopens on Saturday 3 October 2026. The permanent room dedicated to Yves Saint Laurent isn’t affected by this closure.
This isn’t a one-off: the same page keeps a record of several comparable closures in previous years, including an annual textile rotation at the Berber Museum. If the temporary exhibition is your reason for coming, check the foundation’s calendar before booking a combined ticket, not after.
What the packages actually include
At the official ticket office, the foundation’s ticketing offers four choices: the Jardin Majorelle alone, the Yves Saint Laurent Museum alone, the Jardin Majorelle with the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts, and a combined ticket. The prices published on the sites’ pages are 170 dirhams for the garden and 60 dirhams for the Berber Museum; the YSL Museum’s price only appears after choosing the site and nationality in the ticketing system, so we won’t quote it from memory.
In resale, the most-reviewed combined package is the Jardin Majorelle, YSL and Berber Museum ticket 665852: €49.90 in our records, 8,832 reviews, 4.6 out of 5, two hours advertised for all three sites. Its booking page sets an order rule: “for a combined ticket, your visit must start at the Jardin Majorelle at the time stated on your ticket.” So you can’t start with the YSL Museum because it’s raining or the queue is shorter.
Package 950151 adds an audio guide to all three sites for €57.90, and package 1143945 adds private transfers for €102.20 over four hours. The latter has only 11 reviews.
An offer whose title and contents don’t say the same thing
The Yves Saint Laurent Museum entry ticket 792811 is listed at €18.50. Its title promises only a museum, but its list of included services mentions three entries: the YSL Museum, the Pierre Bergé Museum and access to the Jardin Majorelle. That would make it cheaper than the garden-only ticket, listed at €22.49 in our records, and half the price of the 665852 combined ticket.
We won’t tell you it’s a good deal, because we can’t verify that without buying it: a title and a services list that contradict each other are exactly the kind of detail that gets resolved at the entrance, and not in your favour. Its rating is 4.2 out of 5 for 402 reviews. If this offer tempts you, read the option selected in your basket before paying, and expect that only the YSL Museum is included.
This page does provide two useful, precise pieces of information: entry is accepted up to 29 minutes after the booked slot, and the booking can no longer be changed less than five days before the date.
Who benefits from the combined ticket, and who doesn’t
Take the combined ticket if fashion genuinely interests you. The YSL Museum is the only one of the three sites that asks for time and attention; it’s also the one that justifies the surcharge. Take it too if you’re only in Marrakesh for one day and want to see everything at once: two hours are enough for all three, according to the duration advertised by package 665852.
Pay separately if you’re coming mainly for the garden. The Berber Museum sits inside the garden and costs 60 dirhams at the ticket office: it’s the cheapest, shortest add-on, better bought on the spot than in advance. Pay separately too if you’re travelling with young children: under-tens get free garden entry at the official ticket office, and two silent museums back to back are a hard programme to keep up after half an hour among the cacti.
Don’t take the combined ticket on a Wednesday, and don’t take it for the afternoon if your garden slot is late: the garden closes at 6:30 pm with last entry at 6 pm, the Berber Museum from 6 pm with last entry at 5:30 pm, and the YSL Museum doesn’t open until 10 am. The order that works is therefore: garden early in the morning, Berber Museum straight after, then crossing the street to the YSL Museum after 10 am.
The details of the official prices, free entries and access rules for the garden itself are in our guide Jardin Majorelle tickets and visit options. All the offers are gathered on our page Jardin Majorelle tickets, and the rest of the city’s must-sees are in what to see in Marrakesh.
