Reviews
The tour was excellent from start to finish. Our driver was punctual, professional, and very friendly, which made the whole journey comfortable and enjoyable. He spoke good English and communicated clearly about timings and meeting points. The vehicle was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, making it a smooth and relaxing ride. The drive itself felt like a pleasant, jolly road trip rather than just a transfer, with beautiful scenery along the way. Essaouira was absolutely beautiful. The relaxed coastal vibe was a refreshing change, and the beach was perfect for a peaceful walk with cool ocean breezes. The medina had a charming blue-and-white aesthetic and was much less hectic than Marrakech, making shopping enjoyable and stress-free. We loved browsing the artisan shops, especially the handcrafted woodwork and local products. Overall, it was a well-organised tour and a lovely day exploring Morocco’s charming seaside town.
Essaouira is such a refreshing break from the vibrant atmosphere in Marrakech with its laid back and chill vibes. It’s pretty small so the medinas are much easier to navigate. We were pleasantly surprised that food prices were considerably cheaper than in Marrakech. Don’t miss out on the seafood. They were a highlight for us. The hotel pick-up and drop off were so convenient. Our van was comfortable so the 3hours travel time to Essaouira was very manageable, just be ready for a long day. We had almost 5hours to explore which was more than enough time to eat, shop and stroll along the beach. It’s a must visit if you enjoy a slower pace with breathtaking coastal panorama.
It was a fun experience despite roaming around solo, the place is great and calming. Zacaria our driver is so helpful and kind. He never left me out with the translation because everyone on the group was Italians except me 😅
The tour was all we expected, Walid was funny, knowledgeable and helped us when we had questions. the tour was also very good, they took us not only to the city but also a short tour to an argahn oil cooperative.
Hi Mary, our group of 11pax hav a great time with Abdoule experiencing the local culture on the selection of seafood at the market. He helped us in selection of the seafood and even served the seafood to us! Adu was very attentive and helpful and we enjoyed having him as our tour guide ☺️
Wonderful trip with Yasin. Thank you ❤️
We enjoyed our day trip to this lovely seaside town. Busy but not as congested as Marrakech. The weather was distinctly cooler with the seabreeze. Jalal and Ayoub, our guide and driver, were very friendly and helpful and we had a safe journey there and back. Thank you
Great experience at a very affordable price. A nice escape from the heat of Marrakech. Our guide, Hamada, was the best! 👍😘💕
