Reasonable and Enjoyable day trip from Marrakech

We had an amazing experience exploring the Mogador as we were there during the off season. I would recommend anyone visiting Essaouira, The cooperative of argan oil and The tree-climbing goats which were Incredibly fabulous. Our guide ibrahim was very informative and fun and also really made the day fantastic. The Medina’s attractions are so beautiful and well worth the visit. Have a cup of coffee on the balcony of a café overlooking the Atlantic Ocean is also a great experience, and is a must-do.

Enjoyed a great Private day trip from Marrakech

We had booked a day excursion to Essaouira with Morocco Tabiarte Tours agency. The tour fits the description. There is punctual pick up at hotel. Over and above that, we went to see goats on Argan trees, the cooperative of argan oil, and also spend plenty of time in the seaside town around 4 hours. On the other hand, the driver hamid was super nice and kind, and gave important information to us about Essaouira city during the car ride.
The only regret was Essaouira is too great, and we wish we could stay longer. I will suggest travelers with limited time to join this tour, but if u have more time, consider to stay longer in Essaouira. It is a charming destination with a lot to see.

Great from start to finish – Informative guide

We were very thrilled with this day trip. Our driver, Hami was funny, engaging, and also gave us lots of helpful information. We loved seeing the Harbor’s port as well as spending time at the Bustling Fish market, Moulay Hassan square in the Medina. The fishing port of harbor was the highlight with its beautiful blue boats and stunning views from the citadel itself. In addition to that, we cannot forget the tree-climbing goats, so fascinating and impressive. I would highly recommend this excursion and this tour company! Read More Morocco tour’s reviews
