Memorable trip

Published on Mar, 2025

The trip was great and our guide Hussein was very kind. He provided information during the trip ad was caring about our needs. We had the opportunity to do small tours during the trip with Hakim and Yousef, and had the chance to interact with some local artists. Everyone was nice and friendly. The Sahara desert view was amazing, the camp had good conditions, and the Atv experience was on top (not included)

Fantastic day out

Published on Apr, 2024

Lovely day trip to Essaouria. Mohammed did a fabulous job, he was communicative, welcoming and a great driver. Spent the day roaming through the port and the Medina and still had time to relaxed at the beach. Memories made!

Great one day trip!

Really great one day trip, worth the visit. We had the best driver Abdorhman, who also gave us some tips on where to eat and what to explore around the town.

Amazing

Published on Dec, 2023

We got picked up from our hotel and met with the driver/guide Ibrahim and other tourist who then took us to Essaouira safely. He provided us with a lot of information and made sure everything went smoothly while under his care which was really nice and reassuring. Throughout the journey he gave us an insight on the life and stay in morocco as well as recommending different places for tourists. Overall the whole experience was really nice and enjoyable.

Excellent

Abis was so nice and respectful, he picked us up on time and made sure we got to Ibrahim the other driver safely. He also kept making sure everything was okay until the end of the trip. I recommend this trip to other tourists. Thank you Abis
