Super excursion, le guide était super et intéressant. La ville d’Essaouira est à visiter car elle permet de voir une ville à l’opposé de Marrakech. Cependant, le trajet aller est assez conséquent en terme de temps dû aux arrêts (coopérative et chèvres).

An amazing day in Essaouira, such a beautiful place with so much history and curiosities. A big shout-out to the Tour Guide Zaid! One of the best guides I came across, super professional with so much knowledge and insights about the city, culture, and tips about the country. Everything was on time and the day journey was smooth and well-balanced to learn, enjoy the wonderful food, and explore the city.

J'ai adoré l'excursion, organisation au top par l'agence. 3h de route mais le trajet est agréable donc on ne les sent pas, d'autant plus que nous faisons 3 arrêts, pause-café, coopérative de femmes produisant des produits naturels et un arrêt photo. Arrivé a Essaouira nous avons un guide local qui nous fait visité les endroits principaux, très intéressant ! Par la suite nous avons un temps libre ou nous pouvons aller manger, se balader, faire les souks ect ... je recommande!
