Timeline
09:00
Arrive at The Menara gardens right when they open at 09:00. The orchards and olive groves are quietest in the morning, allowing you to wander the grounds and view the 16th-century Saadi pavilion without the midday tourist rush.
09:45
Head to the small cafe inside the gardens for a light lunch or snack. The cafe is open during the day, making it a convenient spot to refuel while remaining on-site.
10:30
Finish your visit by taking a final walk through the rectangular plots and olive-lined walkways before the afternoon heat peaks.
Local tip
The gardens are free to enter. Note that the cafe is not open all hours and there are no toilets available when the cafe is closed, so plan accordingly.
