This was an incredible day trip! We'd definitely recommend spending the day in Essaouira - it was beautiful and walkable city. Also, we appreciated that the company was flexible to work with us when we had to reschedule the day we booked because of changes in our travel.

Awful experience

Ivone_M, May 2024

Old minivan. Uncomfortable. Very rude driver. Took 4,5 hours to get to Essaouira from the hotel. Driver let people wonder around while the other people were stuck inside the hot can with no air conditioning waiting .. awful service

Serviço ok, cidade maravilhosa

O passeio começou quase 1h atrasado e, quando pediamos para o motorista ligar o ar condicionado, ele só dizia para abrirmos a janela. De resto foi ok, nos deixou e buscou no local combinado. A cidade vale muito a pena: é alegre, colorida e com bons preços.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Agradecemos pelo seu feedback e por compartilhar sua experiência conosco. Lamentamos pelo atraso no início do passeio e pela situação em relação ao ar condicionado. Pedimos desculpas por qualquer inconveniente e levaremos essa observação em consideração para melhorar o conforto durante os passeios futuros. Ficamos felizes em saber que você gostou da cidade! Ela realmente é cheia de vida e charme, e é ótimo que tenha aproveitado as cores vibrantes e os preços acessíveis. Agradecemos por escolher nossa agência e esperamos poder oferecer uma experiência ainda mais agradável em futuras visitas.

Mucho tiempo con poco disfrute

SANDRA_F, Sep 2023

La puntuación que dejamos no tiene nada que ver con la atención y servicio prestado por parte del conductor y la agencia, sino porque se pierde mucho tiempo en el trayecto (Unas 8h entre Ida y vuelta) y sólo quedando unas 3h para comer y visitar la maravilla ciudad costera de Essaouira que es muy bonita. Una pena y pérdida de tiempo y dinero. Si la recomendaríamos si se hiciese noche y así cundiría más.

Franoise_R, Mar 2019

Excellente formule que ce tour privé d'un bon rapport qualité prix qui permet d'effectuer une visite d'une journée à Essaouira (en réalité 4 heures sur place, mais c'est suffisant) Le chauffeur est à l'écoute, et s'arrête là où vous le souhaitez. Il nous a même conseillé utilement sur le choix d'un restaurant !

Response from Host, Oct 2021

Bonjour, Nous sommes très heureux que vous ayez eu une bonne expérience avec nous Nous vous remercions encore pour ce gentil commentaire ! Nous sommes à votre disposition à tout moment Merci encore. Meilleures salutations, Equipe Marrakech Sweet Travel.
