An amazing driver to Essaouria - My husband and I loved this tour! The stop at the Árgan cooperative, the walk at the fish market and the magical streets of the city, was great! Our guide was OK , but the best was our driver: Hamza Jahiri who was the best! He did as a guide also because he explained great everything we asked, always very kind and he showed us lots of great places that only he as and a local knew. If you do this trip, ask for him!! He made a great day for us!
