Essaouira is the laid-back Atlantic answer to Marrakech: trade winds, surf, blue boats, and ramparts so cinematic they appeared in Game of Thrones. It has drawn artists since Jimi Hendrix passed through in the sixties, and it remains the cradle of Gnawa music in Morocco.
The road there is part of the trip: argan groves where goats climb the trees, and the plains of Loudaya and Sidi Mokhtar.
Every step below is a default, not a rule. Tell us what to change and we rebuild the route around you.
We collect you at your hotel or riad and take the road west through Loudaya and Sidi Mokhtar.
A stop among the argan trees to watch the goats grazing in the branches, one of the most memorable rural scenes in Morocco. About three hours of driving in total.
Essaouira on foot: the fishing port and its blue boats, the bronze cannons on the sea walls, the old mellah, and the Berber markets and artist workshops of the medina.
A seafood lunch facing the water, then free time on the beach or in the lanes.
The drive home, with drop off at your hotel or riad.
Message us with your dates and group: you will have a detailed private itinerary and one clear price within a day.
