A Sunday in Essaouira! - The driver (Ibrahim) was punctual and careful. The car was very comfortable. Ibrahim even helped us find a guide for visiting the city which was not easy (last minute and high season). Thank you Ibrahim!

- This day trip from Marrakech to Essaouira with Barbaro Tours is truly one of the most unforgettable experiences I've had in Morocco. The stunning landscapes, rich culture, and engaging guides made it an exceptional journey that I highly recommend to anyone visiting the region.

Highly recommended for an unforgettable Moroccan experience - A traveler highly recommends a day trip from Marrakech to Essaouira with Mr. Hafid of Barbaro Tours. They praise Hafid as knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, calling him more than a guide — a storyteller and cultural ambassador. The tour included scenic drives, insider access to Essaouira’s medina, fresh seafood lunch, and personalized attention. The service was professional, comfortable, and authentic.

Good trip but pick up let the trip down - Essaouria is lovely, I recommend a trip but it is a long day. Unfortunately the way this company operated added over an hour unnecessarily, so I can't recommend them. We were ready for 8am as per the instructions, the driver sent a message saying he would be with us at 8.10am which would have been ok but it was almost half past when he arrived. He then drove us around while he did two cash in hand taxi runs all the time arguing with someone on his mobile. When we started heading back into the city we started to worry we were being scammed. Finally an hour after pick up (an hour and a half after we'd been ready to leave) we were dropped just 4km from our hotel to meet with the rest of the tour group. After this things were smoother, but the communication from the driver was minimal and he refused to skip the argan oil visit despite none of the group wanting to go as we were running late. We got 4hrs in Essaouria rather than the advertised 6hrs but as it happened this was adequate. On the return journey there was little communication about drop off. Several people were confused about where they were dropped off and the driver seemed pretty grumpy. We arrived at our hotel just after 9pm (13hrs after the start time) and were turfed out on the roadside rather than being driven down to the building as with other trips.
