Everything organised perfectly. No delays. Great Atmosphere. Good price. Definitely can recommend this.
Excellent time with Omar made our trip very exciting full of joy and laughter. Very safe journey. Great for family trips
To start off, the driver was half an hour late. He then collected another ?tourist from a hotel then dropped off the ?tourist to a bank to exhange money, that ?tourist didn't comeback to the van. The driver stopped for petrol and drove 45 minutes around Medina (Marrakech). We were then handedover to another van where we needed to wait for other tourists joining the tour. This wasn't explained to us by the driver as he doesn't speak English. We left Medina (Marrakech) at 9:15am. We had 3 stops along the way, the 3rd one was Argan place. We had to wait there for 30 minutes (some other tourists) are buying the products. We arrived in Essaouira at 12:50pm. The journey from Medina (Marrakech) to Essaouira is supposed to be less than 3 hours. We arrived there after almost 5 hours! In the end, we only had 3 1/2 hours to eat lunch and explore Essaouira. Such a shame. That's the last time I'm booking a tour with them. I'm extremely disappointed.
