Stop At: Essaouira, Essaouira, Marrakech-Safi

We will embark on a journey along the Atlantic coast at 07:30 a.m. from your hotel and drive to Essaouira which is around 173 km away and takes approximately 3 hours.
Essaouira or Mogador is one of the most captivating places on the Atlantic coastline. During our trip we will make stops to take photos of the wild Atlantic coast and visit an Argan cooperative where you can witness goats scaling trees in order to eat argan fruits (considered delicacies by them).
Once in Essaouira, we will explore its old town "Medina" which has been declared as UNESCO World Heritage Site and encircled by medieval walls; here you can admire "Scala de la Kabasch", a defense bastion with 19 bronze cannons that are still preserved today. The cityscape comprising white-washed houses painted in blue offer beautiful photo opportunities.
Strolling through its narrow streets, you can discover Jewish Quarter, art galleries, thuja woodworkers' shops and souk markets. The traditional fishing port allows visitors to observe local fishermen making wooden boats, repairing nets and baiting lines – if desired lunch could be prepared using freshly caught fish.
You will spend an unforgettable day in this coastal town that has long been influenced by Portuguese occupation.

Note: We are legally obligated to appoint a local tour guide for sightseeing in Essaouira; however if desired more free time or self-exploration can be arranged - kindly let us know beforehand.
