Visiting the Jardin Majorelle, the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts, and the Musée Yves Saint Laurent requires advance planning. The Fondation Jardin Majorelle enforces a strict timed-entry system to manage visitor numbers across its gardens and exhibition spaces. Here is everything you need to know about current ticket prices, operating hours, and booking rules before you go.

Mandatory Online Reservation System

How to Buy Tickets
- Official Platform Only: Purchase your tickets exclusively through the official ticketing platform (www.tickets.jardinmajorelle.com). The foundation explicitly rejects tickets bought through unauthorized third-party vendors, tour operators, or resellers.
- Payment Methods: The online system processes payments in Moroccan Dirhams (MAD) using Visa or Mastercard. International cards are subject to your bank’s standard foreign transaction fees and conversion rates.
- Digital Access: Once your booking is complete, you will receive a digital ticket with a unique QR code. Download it or save a screenshot on your smartphone to present directly at the security checkpoints.
Time-Slot Entry Rules and Visitor Guidelines
To prevent overcrowding on the narrow garden paths, entry is strictly regulated through 30-minute time slots.
- 30-Minute Windows: You must select a specific entry time during the online booking process. Arrive at the gates within your assigned 30-minute window, as early or late arrivals are routinely turned away.
- Combined Ticket Starting Point: If you hold a combined ticket, your visit must begin at the Jardin Majorelle entrance at the exact time printed on your ticket. After exploring the garden, you can enter the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts inside. You can proceed to the YSL Museum afterward, as long as it is within its operational hours.
- Duration and Re-entry: Once inside the garden or museums, you can stay as long as you wish until closing time. All tickets are for single-entry only; exit and re-entry are not permitted.
- Booking Strategy: Morning time slots between 10:00 and 14:00 sell out days in advance, especially during peak travel seasons. To avoid the heaviest crowds and secure your access, book your tickets at least three to four days ahead and aim for the 08:30 or 09:00 morning slots.
How to Get to Jardin Majorelle
The complex is located on Rue Yves Saint Laurent in the Gueliz district.
You can reach the gardens easily using public transportation. To avoid negotiating rates with private taxis, take the Supratours city bus Line 1, which stops directly at the “Majorel” station just a short walk from the entrance gates.
