At 8 : 00 am your guide will pick you up from your accommodation and drive towards the west. On the way, you stop to see the holy trees of argan. It is a special tree adapted to semi-desertic areas and valued for its medicinal properties. Goats climb these trees for grazing and to learn more about argan production you can visit one of the women cooperatives in the area working on the extraction of both nutritive and cosmetic oil. Our destination is the historic city of Essaouira, a small seaside town with an old fortified fishing port. Founded in the 16th century by the Portuguese who occupied it till the mid of the 18th century. the impressive town fortification consists of an amazing mixture of the Portuguese, Berber and French architecture. You will have enough time to explore the small city at your leisure such as the souks and carpentry workshops devoted to Thuya wood carving.
