Tour was well organized, bus was on time and Walid our tour guide was fantastic. He provided all the info required for visiting Essourias and is a very enthusiastic & bubbly person. The visit to the Argan oil complex was lots of fun with many interesting products to purchase. Overall a highly recommended tour and a welcome respite from the crowds of Marrakech!

A nice day trip to get away from the noise of Marrakech. Nice van and smooth road. We stopped at a women owned argan collective and after a short demonstration I purchased alot of products instead of buying who knows what you see selling everywhere in Marrakech and Essouira. At least you know the profits go directly to these women. Our guide Rachid sent everyone maps and points of interest so we could wander around on our own and not get lost. Even if you did get lost he assured everyone he would find us like Superman. A very pleasant man and such an enjoyable day. I highly recommend Rachid and his company. I am a single older woman and felt absolutely safe walking on my own in Essouira.

Karim (tour guide) was great. It was a good time. The beach was really nice. Wish I had more time. They let us roam by ourselves.

Very relaxing day of shopping. Wonderful food. Wonderful guide and tour experience. Made a few stops along the way for snacks and shopping.

Our driver was safe and skillful. Cheerful as well. However, we did not make any stop to visit the goats on the argan trees nor did we have a stop to have an overview of the city as stated in the itinerary. We weredropped off at Essaoira and picked up 4 plus hrs later. There was no tour guide to show us around. My request for a partial refund was also declined. Why was there no tour guide provided when the itinerary stated that the guide would meet us there?

Everything went smoothly. Picked up near our riad on time. Excellent guide in Khalid Ramoo, very informative and multilingual. Essaouira is a beautiful place and it was lovely to be at the sea. Highlight of the trip for me was the visit to the women's cooperative who produce argan oil and various products from the oil. An enterprise that runs on a organic philosophy with no waste. We had an excellent driver. Great day out.

We picked this tour based on the positive reviews and we agree with all of them! We had a great driver, Wassim, who picked us up on time right by our Riad and gave us a smooth, quiet, safe ride to Essaouira. The journey felt a lot quicker than I expected because of the stops we made along the way (and the naps we took in the car). We had plenty of time to explore the city—over 4 hours—and Wassim provided info on some sights to check out while we were there. Had a nice lunch at a restaurant called Mandala Society. Home by around 7pm. Excellent value for the price and would recommend for anyone who likes a choose-your-own-adventure style day trip.

MoHa was an amazing driver and guide. His communication prior to and during the journey were perfect. The van was clean and comfortable and the stops for breaks were perfectly timed. He provided great travel insight and answered any questions that I had.

We had a large group, including children. Everything was smooth, including breaks for bathroom and food. Instructions were clear and any accommodations, such as two locations was provided. Yassine was great and provided a history while driving by certain locations. He also went out of his way to return items left in the van.

Great trip! Fantastic value! Driver and guide were communicative and efficient. 4-5 hours was the perfect amount of time to see the highlights and grab lunch in Essaouira. I highly recommend this trip to anyone staying in Marrakech. My only feedback would be to update the tour description that this is a 12 hour activity, not including pick-up/drop-off.

Comfortable, completely full minibus with WiFi.
A nice mix of being guided and being on your own - Issam gave us descriptions of what we would see, and even gps coordinates for our phones so we could self-guide.
Issam ended up giving all the info in English as was listed in the booking, but then also in French as we had French speakers on board. Very accommodating!

We had an excellent daytrip to Essaouira from Marrakesh. We were picked up near our riad, had a 20 min breakfast stop and another at an argan women's cooperative. We spent 4,5 hours at Essaouira, picked fish from the local fishermen and had it grilled for us on the spot. Both driver and guide were excellent! Thank you for a great time!

Excellent day out in Essaouira. Remo Was an amazing guide, full of information throughout out journey. 100% recommend.
Nice place to stop on the way there and back to grab a coffee, food, snack, beer or wine. Beautiful garden and seating area with goats, rabbits, peacocks and a few other animals.
Was nice to see the Argan oil being made. All the staff are very nice and welcoming.
Recommended going to La Coupole Essaouira Beach. Had a lovely meal with wine and beautiful views of the sea and beach.
Remo is amazing at keeping in contact with you. Our pick up time in the morning was 7:35 and got a call 10 mins before saying they was there already.
Got a WhatsApp message the day before with place of pick up and time, with a link to the pick up point.
5hrs free time in Essaouira to do as you please.
Definitely worth it 🤗
Response from Host, Oct 2025

Lovely trip. Driver was on time and en route took us to a Argan oil co op. Worth a visit to the seaside.
Response from Host, Aug 2024
