Good job!

We did a day trip from Marrakech to Essaouira. Our driver was Mohammed Laaouini. He was very warm, friendly and professional. He went above and beyond what we expected by sharing interesting and helpful information about Morocco. If I were to visit Morocco again, I would certainly request for him. Our guide in Essaouira was Youness. He was warm, professional and knowledgeable. He also had a good sense of pacing and timing.

Very nice trip

Thank you Mohamed for your professional and excellent guide. The pick up is accurate. The car is clean, comfortable and well air-conditioned. I learnt a lot about Morocco and Essaouira from Mohamed and the local guide. Perfect trip.

Wonderful day in Essaouira

Ismail our driver and guide regaled us with the history and customs of Morocco on our drive from Marrakech to Essaouira (a coastal town on the Atlantic). We then met our delightful guide Youness who introduced us to this city and it’s long history. We had a delicious lunch overlooking the ocean and did a bit of shopping along the old marketplace. Youness was informative and enthusiastic. We would wholeheartedly recommend this tour company and their tour guides who spoke very understandable English

Amazing!!!

I LOVED this day trip. Mohammed was such a good guide. He was professional and there to help every step of the way. Answering all my questions and making recommendations for my stay. I actually enjoyed him so much that I used him again during my stay. Book this trip and make sure to ask for Mohammed!

Great experience

Mohammad drove us a few times during our time in Morrocco, including a day trip to Essaouira. He was communicative and on time always, and acted as a great guide along the way. We had a great guide waiting for us upon our arrival to Essaouira and were able to stop on the way to see the Argan co-ops and goats- every detail was perfectly planned. Added bonus that there was always good conversation and music :) Would definitely recommend and use Mohammed/his team's services again!

Great trip to the coast

Lovely trip in a comfortable vehicle beautifully driven by our guide, Abdul. He was a mine of information! Our guide in Essaouira was friendly local Younes. Stop for real fresh mint tea and a snack was a pleasant surprise.
