Fun in Essaouira

Published on Mar, 2024

Trip was fine. Town is quaint and 4.5 hours is plenty of time. Disappointing there are no longer goats climbing the trees, this info needs to be removed from the advertising.

Definitely worth it. Long drive but safe, comfortable and fun!

Published on Jul, 2023

The driver arrived at our hotel right on time. We were escorted to an air conditioned mini van that drove us to see the goats and the argan oil production. Essaouira is lovely and definitely worth a visit for the day. The driver was incredible and even sang for us on the way back! We made new friends, memories and enjoyed the trip. Yes it’s a bit hot on the bus but it has AC and it was totally bearable. Lovely experience.

Amazing time in Essaouira

Published on May, 2023

We spent a great experience thanks to our guides Mahioub and Fajar! The scheduling is well done, we had enough time to enjoy the experience.

Great day out

Published on May, 2023

This was a great trip at a reasonable price However, be prepared for a long drive there and back and don't expect to return until well after the scheduled time.

Lovely day trip

Published on Mar, 2023

Great day out - Essaouira was a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh. Our driver was very friendly and we also stopped to see the goats in the trees and also at an argan oil cooperative. Just make sure you pack a scarf or a jacket because Essaouira is really windy indeed!
