What to expect
Ounagha
Ounagha (Drive-Through) Your journey begins with a hotel pickup around 8:00 AM. Along the way, you’ll pass through Ounagha, where a scenic stop offers the perfect opportunity to take in the picturesque views and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
Le Val d'Argan
Le Val d’Argan During the journey, you’ll visit a local cooperative run by Berber women, where you’ll discover the traditional process of producing Argan oil. Learn about the secrets behind this precious “liquid gold” and explore its many natural benefits.
Essaouira
Essaouira You’ll arrive in Essaouira around midday, just in time to explore this charming seaside town at your own pace. Stroll through its captivating medina, where the Atlantic Ocean meets ancient city walls that divide the town into distinct, character-rich quarters. Essaouira’s unique atmosphere and coastal beauty have made it a favorite filming location for renowned productions such as Game of Thrones and more. Your driver will be happy to recommend local restaurants if you’d like to enjoy a leisurely lunch—many of which serve freshly caught seafood prepared with Moroccan flair.
Essaouira’s Charm Essaouira greets you with its unusually straight streets—a rare feature in Moroccan towns—thanks to French urban planning influence. Begin your visit at the historic port, where rows of bronze cannons still guard the ramparts, then wander through the vibrant medina and bustling souks. Be sure to stop by the artisan woodworking shops, where skilled craftsmen shape intricate designs from fragrant cedar wood.
Return to Marrakech At the end of your visit, meet your driver for the journey back to Marrakech. You can expect to arrive at your accommodation by early evening, bringing a relaxing close to your memorable day trip.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
