Highly Recommend if Staying in Marrakech - This was a fantastic value - picked up at 8am near my Riad, nice comfortable vehicle, and 3 stops on the way out there - a rest stop, to see some goats, and an argan oil cooperative. Then 4 hours to explore this lovely coastal city on your own, then straight back with 1 stop at the rest stop. Entire journey was about 8a-7p. I’d recommend!

Comfortable transport to Essaouira - Nice trip to Essaouira. The driver, Abdul, was friendly and helpful. This is not a guided tour. But if you’re looking for safe and comfortable transportation to Essaouira with a quick stop at the women’s argon collective, this is a great value.

Superb excursion and change of air - A breath of air, beautiful landscapes and an enchanting setting. Essaouira is a small blue and white city surrounded by walls facing the ocean and its medina offers multiple attractions. We were accompanied by Youness, always concerned about our comfort and considerate. His explanations of the history and specificities of the regions we travel through contribute to the quality of this excursion. On the return, he exchanged with everyone and the conversations were very interesting. A real asset! Our driver also had merit, the weather and traffic conditions were rather difficult. An excursion to recommend 100%!

A very good day out - Very good day out. Drive is about 3 hours but doesn’t seem so as plenty to see on the route. Our driver Jamal was experienced and good with his driving. Essaouira itself was a very good port and lots of cultural things to see.
