An idyllic place and thank you Ibrahim ❤️ - An experience rich in emotions with an excellent guide (thank you Ibrahim) and mythical place of activities well supervised and above all quality thanks to you for having embellished our stay in Marrakech. Really if you come as a family or as a lover or even alone this is really the thing to make a pool with several depths, quad with photo, camels with photo, a show of musicians singer, flame thrower, and even a very hearty dinner.

Amazing 1 Day Trip to Essaouira – Best Coastal Experience in Morocco! - I recently had the chance to enjoy an amazing 1 day trip to Essaouira, and it truly exceeded all my expectations! If you’re visiting Morocco and looking for the best coastal experience, Essaouira is an absolute must. The journey from Marrakech was smooth, and as soon as we arrived, I was captivated by the charm of this beautiful seaside town. The old medina, with its white-washed walls and blue accents, is picture-perfect. Walking through the historic port, seeing the fishing boats, and enjoying fresh seafood was unforgettable. Essaouira’s relaxed atmosphere, combined with the Atlantic breeze and stunning beach views, makes it ideal for anyone seeking culture, history, and relaxation all in one place. I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Morocco – whether you’re into photography, history, or simply want to unwind by the ocean, Essaouira delivers the perfect 1 day escape from Marrakech. I’ll definitely be back
