Full-Day Tour to Essaouira - The Ancient Mogador City from Marrakech

We highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide Abdul was very informative about the history and present life of Morocco, a relaxed and fun atmosphere. At Easoura we had a home guide. The funniest part of the trip was painting goats on argan trees. Eaossura is a beautiful seaside town and it was great because we had 3 hours to dine in peace and enjoy the beach. Super day trip

From the moment he found us waiting in the morning chaos of the Medina, our guide, Ismail, was a delight. He had more energy than anyone should have that early, was kind, professional, funny, caring, and very informative throughout the entire day. He is a walking/driving encyclopedia of Moroccan history AND American pop culture! The only negative about the tour was that even a full-day was too short! We need a Part 2.

I highly recommend this tour. Our driver Abdul was very kind and informative. He organized our pickup in Marrakech in a comfortable, air conditioned SUV. He stopped so that we could see the Argan trees with the goats climbing and also offered to take photos of us. We also enjoyed learning how the Argan oil was made and were able to buy a few products without feeling any pressure or hurry. When we arrived in Essaouira, we met our local guide Aziz who gave us a walking tour of the Medina and explained some of the history. Compared to Marrakech, it was such a relaxing experience and we could see how kind and friendly the locals were. After the tour, we had some free time and so we enjoyed lunch at a lovely restaurant by the beach and then walked back. Our driver picked us up and, on the way back, we stopped for a restroom break and some tea and a delicious snack on the way back. This was so well organized and we felt like we were well taken care of. I highly recommend this tour and thank you again for the wonderful day!

Everything was very good, I loved the whole day. Our driver tell us a lot about Marocco during the journey, it was very interesting. In Essaouira the guide was very kind and took us to lots of interesting places.

Great day with adbul and aziz! It was a nice itinerary, knowledgeable guides, and a beautiful city to visit!

There were 5 of us on this on this Private Day Tour to Essaouira. Firstly, after 4 days in the noise and bustle of Marrakech, Essaouira was a welcome calming change - the blue & white city was quiet and relaxing. We had a walking tour of the city - Ahmed, our guide was a local - it was a little lacking in history and detail, but he did recommend a fish fry stall that we had a superb meal at. However, outside of Essaouira itself, the highlight of the day was our interaction with Ismail, our driver. He has excellent English, and we had a wide-ranging and enthusiastic (pretty much non-stop) conversation throughout both drives. I recommend both the trip and Ismail.

Ismael accompany us along the way to Essaouira. He drive carefully and diligently, and explain every detail that we passed. He is very well inform and has a lot of knowledge for everything. We got a lot of information about the history and the culture. He also recommended us, a nice restaurant on the beach with the delicious food. The journey was great and excellent. We hope we can join other tour next time. Very well recommended.

The full day excursion to Essaouira as part of our visit to Marrakech is worthy of special mention. Arrangements were confirmed the day before the trip by email and pickup at the hotel was right on schedule as advised. Our driver Abdul, arrived in a clean and modern vehicle and navigated the heavy morning traffic, briefly mentioning points of interest and answering our many questions. Along the way a stop was made to see the manufacturing of Aragan oil with no pressure to purchase any of the derivative products. On arrival to Essaouira, Abdul introduced us to Haziz, a native of the Mogador city, and seemingly known by everyone as we toured the ancient city. Haziz was a great ambassador of the city, pointing out how Jewish, Christian and Muslim faith citizens live in total harmony. The ambience of the city differs completely than the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, being much more laid back without the commercial pressures on visitors to purchase items on offer. The tour was followed by a seaside lunch and a time to relax or take a leisurely stroll. All in all, a great opportunity to experience a different lifestyle from the big city and understand the differing cultures in Morocco.

This trip was really memorable. Ismail was our tour guide and was extremely knowledgeable and fun to be around. On the way to Essaouira, we stopped to see goats in the Argan trees which was really cool. The medina is very touristy and modern but the beach is the star. The restaurant we ate at had the best view. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Ismail.

Trip was fantastic and we had a great time with our tour guide Ahme. We recommend him for any of your future trips. He is an excellent to really cares for his customer. We would use him for any future trips to Essaouria. Great job Mr. Ahme.
