Marrakech to Essaouira, a day with a lot of surprises a lot of experience, Today we will travel to wind city , “Mogador”. Just before you get to Essaouira and since this is the land of the “Argan

Here you will have the opportunity to visit the women’s co-operative of Argan oil where they extract the oil that is famous for its culinary, cosmetic and medical properties. We will arrive in Essaouira around 11am and then start our exploration of the city. You’ll visit the Skala Fortress; see Thuya wood carved by artisans; walk through the alleys of
the medina, where you can see hundreds of handicrafts.
Essaouira knew many civilisations – including the Portuguese occupation, which affects much of its architecture – however, it remains a small beautiful town with much history. Because of its size and its characteristic blue doors, washed walls and location, it is also regarded as Morocco’s “Jewel of the Atlantic”. Your visit includes the Mellah – the Jewish headquarter, and the beach. There is an annual festival of “Gnawa music”, where many musical groups come from different parts of Africa and the world. Today you will have lunch in a Moroccan way -fresh bought fishes cooked to order, a
very authentic experience. After that you will have some free time before we drive you back to Marrakech where the tour ends either in the square jemaa el Fna or at your accommodation.
