A good trip with Badr and Walid - A great excursion alongside Badr and Walid, which was adapted to give us information in the different languages that passengers spoke.

Wonderful adventure with wonderful people - What a wonderful way to see Essaouira. We also stopped by a cooperative where they process and sell argan oil products. Excellent guide (Said). What makes the trip even more interesting are the different people I met on the tour. It's a full bus of 13 people. Not too bad. We got a chance for a pit stop on the way there and on the way back. We had around 3 hours in Essaouira, which was more than enough time to explore and have lunch.

Essaouira with Badr and Zakaria - Very good experience with Badr and Zakaria! Very good advice on where to eat and very good historian regarding the history of Essaouira and Morocco!! Again thank you for the responsiveness despite our personal concern for the care

Essouria Visit. - Essouria is certainly worth a visit,having a relaxed feel away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh.Its beach is pristine,it's souk much less manic,and all in all,a pleasant place to stroll around.Its ramparts are worth exploring,and our visit coincided with the arrival of the fishing fleet,in mid afternoon,with an incredible array of huge crabs,lobsters,and numerous other species,not least the sardines! Fish can be prepared and served to you there and then,if feeling peckish! Very photogenic! Essouria is subject to constant windy conditions,so ideal for wind surfers. One word of caution however- it constitutes a long day trip from Marrakesh(around 3 hours each way),although on arrival,we had several hours to explore,so didn't feel rushed A private tour,with a comfort break en route in a very pleasant cafe; there was also the (seemingly obligatory!) short stop at an Argan co-operative,but we've previously undergone better presentations ( with keener prices!) elsewhere in Morocco.

Transportation to Essaouira - If you are seeking safe transportation to Essaouira, this would be a viable choice. I would not consider this a tour.

Advertised as 9-10 hrs;... - Advertised as 9-10 hrs; took over 12 hrs. Driver did not highway on way back, extending return time. Plan for the rest of the day consequently got messed up. Vehicle very compact, tight seating (hardly any leg space, seat belt so tight-very uncomfortable). Driving was quite rough. Visit to the Argan oil cooperative should be made optional for travellers. Essaouira is very nice city.

Choose a Different Provider - This trips team wasn’t very professional. They showed up 30 minutes late and failed to communicate the delay ahead of my reaching out to them. They had extended rest breaks that made a 2hr 30mim trip 4 hours long, and ushered us in a van with a broken door that would open on the highway. The trip reports it should be resolved within 9-10 hours, but it took 13 given the excessive smoke breaks and light traffic. With this tour, only 4 hours was spent in Essaouira. I’d recommend using a different method.
