Day trip to Essaouira from Marrakech

Book this Marrakech to Essaouira day trip to get away and relax in the Coastal town. Essaouira was formerly known as Mogador and is a gorgeous coastal town. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and many tourists’ darling. Start your Essaouira day trip by a morning departure from your riad in Marrakech in a 4×4 air-conditioned car. Enjoy a scenic drive through the countryside landscape and argan trees. Then, you stop by Berber people tending their goats as they look for pasture. Perhaps you could witness a rare scene of goats climbing up trees. Back on the paved road, after a short drive, we visit an argan oil women co-operative. You will learn about the benefits and the use of argan oil and witness the process of manufacturing cosmetic products. Once you arrive at Essaouira, explore the wall-enclosed medina. Wander the windy streets, full of local craftsmanship and souvenirs. Admire and photograph the 16th-century massive ramparts, reminiscent of Portuguese architecture. Next, stop by the seaport to photograph the famous blue boats. Then, choose a selection of freshly caught fish to be prepared for your lunch in one of the many restaurants overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. After lunch, enjoy a stroll along the Mogador beach or go for a swim. Or sip a glass of Moroccan mint tea and enjoy the tranquillity of this charming coastal town. We arrive back at Marrakech by the end of the day. Your Marrakech to Essaouira day trip will come to an end as your driver escorts you to your hotel.
