a good way to visit taroudant - Taroudant and Tiout Oasis are both well worth a visit, and the scenery on the drive is impressive, including some goats in Argan trees. Our guide was informative and lunch was good (we had the vegetarian option). There was a lot to cover in one day, with lots of time in the coach and few toilet stops; we were tired by the end of it.

Scenic but Salesy – A Mixed Experience with Potential - The Agadir: Taroudant & Tiout Guided Day Trip offered a decent day out, thanks largely to Morocco’s stunning landscapes and good weather. While it was one of our better excursions from Agadir, the experience felt uneven due to some glaring drawbacks. The Good: - The scenery and sights (Taroudant’s markets, the palm groves of Tiout) are beautiful and worth seeing. - Lunch was enjoyable, and the convenience of pickup/dropoff from our hotel was appreciated. - Having local guides at each stop provided some context, though their depth of knowledge varied. The Not-So-Good: 1. Commission-Driven Shopping Stops: The tour felt overly commercialized. At every turn, we were funneled into shops (carpet shops, argan oil cooperatives, etc.) where guides clearly earned commissions. This is repetitive and took time away from authentic cultural exploration. 2. Rushed & Superficial Guidance: Our main guide, though friendly, struggled with English fluency and had limited knowledge of Taroudant’s history or Morocco’s broader cultural context. Questions often went unanswered, and the tour felt hurried – as if the priority was moving us quickly to the next shopping stop rather than letting us absorb the sights. 3. Misleading Structure: Note that the driver who picks you up is *not* the guide. You’ll meet different guides at each location, which leads to disjointed storytelling and a lack of continuity. This tour has potential if the focus shifts from sales pitches to genuine cultural immersion. We enjoyed the landscapes and the ease of logistics, but the constant upselling and lack of in-depth guiding left us wanting. If you don’t mind the shopping detours and want a hassle-free way to see the area, it’s okay – but manage your expectations. For a more authentic experience, consider a private tour or a provider that prioritizes education over commissions.

Good trip around Taroudant - The lunch at Ahmed was Amazing. The walk in the palm trees also even if it was Quick. Taroudant is a beautiful city but we didn't have Time on our own. The person in charge was nice but not really well organized and didn't gave us a lot of information.
