What to expect

Discover the relaxed, bohemian seaside resort of Essaouira on a full-day guided tour from Marrakech. Following a pick-up from your hotel in Marrakech, cross Morocco by air-conditioned vehicle en route to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy views of the arid landscape, stopping at an argan oil co-operative to learn how this healthful oil is produced from the nuts of the argan trees.

Upon arrival at Essaouira, take a guided tour of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. See the 16th-century ramparts of Essaouria, with astonishing views of the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean. Follow your English-speaking guide to all of Essaouira’s most important monuments, such as the old fish market and seaport. Watch silver craftsmen and wood carvers at work in the old medina, where the labyrinth of streets is lined with heavy wooden doors and whitewashed houses. At the end of the day, you will be dropped-off at your hotel in Marrakech.

    Great communication from the company in terms of pick up point and timing. The good driver was prompt and got us to the destination in good time, having had a toilet stop and visit to an Argan Oil community museum and shop. We were given 3hrs in Essauria and again promptly picked up and got us back.

    Solo traveller


    The day out was superb value for money, can't fault it at all. On the return our driver decided to wait 90 minutes past our departure time waiting for 2 people who said they weren't coming back - no communication at all with the customers on the bus as to why. Just made for a long day and only got back a few minutes before dinner service finished.
