Join us for a truly authentic Moroccan experience as we journey to Drarga to visit the famous Mohamed Nomade. This is the premier destination to witness the incredible goats on Argan trees in their natural environment. Unlike standard roadside stops, visiting Mohamed Nomade allows you to see these amazing animals climbing high into the branches in a peaceful, traditional setting. You will have the opportunity to take stunning photos, learn about the nomadic lifestyle, and discover the deep connection between the local community and the Argan forest. This visit offers a rare, respectful glimpse into rural Berber life, away from the crowded tourist paths, making it a highlight of any trip to the Agadir region
After visiting the famous goats in Drarga, we take you to the heart of the city for a free visit to Souk El Had, Agadir’s legendary local market. Unlike other tours that rush you through with a guide, we provide you with free time to explore without a local guide. This allows you the total freedom to wander through the 6,000 stalls at your own leisure, soak in the vibrant atmosphere, and haggle for treasures without any pressure. Whether you want to get lost in the scent of exotic spices, shop for authentic Berber carpets, or simply enjoy a fresh orange juice while people-watching, you are the master of your own schedule. Your driver will drop you at the main gate and arrange a convenient meeting point for your return, giving you a truly independent shopping experience in the largest urban market in Morocco
At the end of your day trip, we ensure a smooth and comfortable return to the city. Our professional driver will drop you off directly at your hotel or Riad in Agadir city center,

Seeing the goats was very fun and the market was nice and being able to walk around it with plenty of time was perfect, the stop at the argan oil factory wasn’t on the itinerary and was a bit random, clearly just a chance to convince you to buy stuff. But only a smaller interval and the rest of the day was perfect! It’s not a long trip so plenty of time to have the rest of the day for other stuff.
Driver was very friendly, got plenty of time to see the goats and go around the souks. The argan oil place was nice was well
Pickup was excellent , on time & very nice driver. However , the website says we will learn about the Nomadic lifestyle & discover the deep connection between the local community & the Argan Forest etc.... this was not the case , we were not told anything from the Berber. Plus there was NO mention anywhere that we had to pay to get our photo taken with baby Goats, the Berber man followed us & put his hand out showing us a 100 dirham note. As this was part of the tour, I would have expected the driver to hand the Berber any money that was due which would have been covered in the original payment to Viator . Visit to souk was fine, & driver was on time at the pre- arranged pickup point.
This was a fantastic experience overall! The driver Roshid picked us up outside the hotel and even phoned me to let me know he was here. We went to see the goats first which was the best thing to see in Agadir! There was no time limit per se and Roshid waited for us to let him know we were ready to go. After that we headed your way the biggest soul and made a stop off at an argan oil factory where we were able to see how argan oil is made and could purchase the real organic oil. Then we headed to the souk which was far too big to cover but we arranged with the driver a pick up time and he came and met us then and brought us back to our hotel. All in all a fantastic trip with a friendly, chatty and very helpful driver!
thank you very much for your review
Our driver was wonderful. Very nice ma . But very disappointed with the goats on trees. It's a road side attraction. I would say you never want to go there. Very pushy people wanting money. Will run after you. Not a great place. The beach is beautiful. The market was ok. Our lunch stop was fantastic. If you are going to Agadir do the fort and the beach.
thank you
Seeing the country side in comfort on a memorable trip .theres little I can add really. Your driver was punctual and helpful .
Thank you very much
the tour guide did not show up at pier. horrible experience. lucky to still manage to get tour with the cruise line.
My husband and I took this trip yesterday with our driver and guide Hassan. We ended up being the only two on it so had lots of attention. We had a wonderful time. Hassan was punctual, polite and so knowledgable. He was very friendly and taught us lots of things about about the local culture. The car was lovely clean and cool and he was a very safe driver. We had a great trip to the city followed by a delicious Moroccan lunch and visit to the oasis. All of it was lovely and first class. We recommend this trip and company 100% and can’t thank Hassan enough for his wonderful service.
Dear Stephief , Thank you very much for your review . Best Regards
