Mohammed was a great guide and tailored the day trip to our wishes. Argon oil cooperative was interesting and Essaouria was beautiful. It’s a working fishing port so don’t expect it to always look like the pictures. Great to see the mountain villages and Moroccan life on the way through.

Beautiful city, very poor tour guide.

Debbie_H, Sep 2024

Our guide was nothing more than a taxi driver, no engagement, didn't even offer his name. No city tour as advertised, he simply dropped us off and told us to be back at 4pm. We were expecting more after our other trip with this company yesterday. That aside the city is amazing and well worth a visit. My star rating is based on the quality of the tour advertised , I would give the city a solid 5 out of 5.

What a brilliant day.

From the moment our driver Mohammed, picked us up from the RIU Tikida Dunas at exactly 8.15am to dropping us off at 20:15 pm he was amazing. Although he struggled with English and my French was limited he provided us with so much info. He made countless unscheduled stops to show us things of interest and made sure we had the best day possible. Wonderful trip just loved Essaouira all made special by a brilliant driver and guide.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

It was amazing!

Laila_T, Sep 2019

The tour was amazing and more that we have expected. Mohamed was very king we could not have better guide tour then him. We saw so many thing in one day and took pictures on some beautiful hiding places on the way to take pictures. Thank you, Merci

Response from Host, Sep 2019

Thank you Laila for all your time you gave us to to write this feedback. I will always keep in mind your best company. Stay all well. Hope to see you again. You're always welcome. Mohamed.

We were collected from our hotel...

Dan_Z, Apr 2018

We were collected from our hotel promptly by Mohammed and driven as a couple in a comfortable vehicle through the most amazing country-side and landscape on our way to Essaouira. Mohammed is an excellent guide with good local knowledge, and there is nothing he won't try and help you with. The journey is 3 hours long so you should take the break as suggested by Mohammed and have a coffee or tea and use the bathroom. On arriving in Essaouira, we were taken to the Medina and strolled around. This was very informal and as it was just the two of us we enjoyed this a lot. I would advise letting Mohammed know in advance what you'd like to see and this will enable him to plan your tour to suit you. The Medina has a variety of faces, some trendy and others old-world and hectic. Choose wisely. We had lunch in a very good restaurant by the sea, where we had fish which was cooked beautifully. We had to leave early as we had another engagement in Agadir but this tour does offer you a chance to carry on in the Medina and the city after lunch. We would happily do any tour with Mohammed as he is laid back, friendly and knowledgeable.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you very much for your detailed and kind feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your private tour of Essaouira with Mohammed, and that you appreciated his guidance and the flexibility of the experience. We will gladly pass on your compliments to him. We hope to welcome you back to Morocco again soon.

Very nice trip along the beautiful...

Klaus_F, Apr 2018

Very nice trip along the beautiful Atlantic coast of Morroco from Agadir to Essaouira historically Mogadur. A place to be because of its fish port, the souk market and the old castle.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the beautiful journey along the Atlantic coast and the charm of Essaouira. We hope to welcome you back to Morocco again soon.
