This was one of the best family experiences we had in Morocco. From the moment we were picked up at our hotel, everything was smooth, punctual, and perfectly organized. Travelling in a small group made the day relaxed and enjoyable for all of us. Our guide El Houssain was wonderful – friendly, knowledgeable, and great with everyone. We visited a lively local souk, stopped at a women’s Argan oil cooperative for a traditional Berber breakfast, and enjoyed several scenic photo stops along the way. The hike was a highlight for our family ( we walked about 1.5 hour) was easy four our kids also, with beautiful mountain views, charming villages, and two lovely waterfalls. Afterwards, we enjoyed a delicious homemade lunch with lentil soup, chicken tagine, fresh bread, and mint tea on a rooftop overlooking the Atlas Mountains. Hamid, our driver, was excellent and made us feel safe throughout the day. Highly recommended for families visiting Marrakech. I recommend this day trip to every family want to explore the other side of morocco and have a nice quality time together. Shoukran el houssain for this lovely day🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It was a long and satisfying day. I loved seeing the goats in the Argan trees and knowing I was purchasing authentic Argan oil. Our free time in Essaouira was the perfect length. Sharaff was amazingly helpful and informative.
We had an amazing day with our guide Charaf. He is more cultural and wise man. About Essouria there is one of the best part of our trip.
The trip was amazing! Our guide, Charaf, is such an incredible person. He shared so much valuable information with us. I would love to travel all over Morocco with this tour company. I will definitely take more tours on my next trip. 100 stars! 🤩💯
Really fine nothing to say the city was beautiful and the host was really good he explains the Berber story very well
Excursion to essaouira with our guide, very good experience and many details and explanations provided, thank you very much to him
It was a beautiful trip. The guide, Charaf, was excellent. He told us many interesting things about Berber history and traditions. The price was affordable and the car trip (3h) was very pleasant because we made stops. We caught torrential rain on the way but Charaf's stories enchanted us and we were not influenced by the weather.
We had a great trip with Charaf, he told us a lot of interesting information and stories about the Berbers and Maroc. I love the argan products that we tasted at the Argan Cooperative. Essaouira is a beautiful town, I had the best fish tagine and tasted fresh fruits.
Charaf was a great guide and explained a lot about the history of Maroc. We visited Essaouira and the experience was without issues.
Nice guide, smiling and available. The day was pleasant. A little rain on arrival but that’s life. A beautiful day
