- Marrakech - Begin your day trip to Essaouira from Marrakech with a scenic drive through the Haouz plains. As you near Essaouira, you’ll pass through a forest of Argan trees, where you might see goats climbing the branches. Pause to capture some photos before continuing to Essaouira. Visit a local women’s cooperative to observe the extraction of Argan oil, also known as liquid gold or Moroccan oil, and discover how exquisite cosmetic products are crafted from this rich oil.
- Chichaoua - Stop in the village of Chichaoua, located halfway, for a refreshing cup of coffee before resuming your journey.
- Medina of Essaouira - Upon arrival, enjoy exploring the charming city at your own pace. From experience, Essaouira is easy to navigate independently: the locals are welcoming, the Medina is relatively small compared to other Moroccan old towns, and its streets are well-organized. A guide is not necessary for touring the city. You can effortlessly explore the Medina on your own, as its streets are laid out in a straightforward manner, unlike the maze-like Medinas elsewhere in Morocco. However, if you prefer a guide, your driver can assist in hiring a local one.
The town also features a seemingly endless beach, and it’s highly recommended to savor the delicious freshly caught fish and seafood.
In the late afternoon, return to Marrakech, concluding your full-day tour to Essaouira with a drop-off at your hotel or the nearest car-accessible point to your riad.
