Essaouira tour by karim - The tour was really nice karim was very helpfull, chatty and alive. We misunderstood the distance of our trip prior to meeting karim and had to change plans. Karim was understanding and helped organise a last minute surfing trip which was amazing.

Amazing, kind driver - ausgezeichneter, sehr freundlicher Fahrer - Mohammed was our driver for the last 3 days. He did the pick-up when we arrived, he drove us into the desert and the day later to Essouira. He is such a nice kind person, speaks English and French (promised to learn German now, too ;-), does not run a conversation if you want to only sit in the car and relax but can be "talky" if you ask him and if you start a conversation. We can highly recommend him as driver because we always felt safe and in very good hands!
