On this day trip from Marrakech, we'll visit Essaouira, The Pearl of the Atlantic, a city of fishermen where friendliness is the main virtue.

Essaouira Day Trip

At the designated time, we'll pick you up in Marrakech and, leaving The Red City behind, we'll set off for the coast toward Essaouira, "The Pearl of the Atlantic."

Along the journey, which will last approximately 3 hours and have an English-speaking driver, we'll stop at a café so you can enjoy a drink or food on your own, and also stop at an argan oil co-op, one of the most sought-after products in this area in Morocco.

After these stops, we'll arrive at Essaouira, where you'll have approximately 5 hours of free time to admire its fortifications, the fishing port, and the labyrinthine Medina, where you can bask in the atmosphere and the day-to-day life of its inhabitants. The town also boasts a seemingly unending beach, and it's recommended to try the delicious, freshly caught fish and seafood.

We also recommend exploring the souks of Essaouira, where you'll discover why this fascinating city on the Moroccan coast has captivated figures like Orson Welles or Jimi Hendrix.

Finally, we'll regroup in the center of Essaouira to set off back to the starting point in Marrakech, where we'll arrive 10.5 to 11 hours after pickup.

Pickup Points

If you're staying inside the Medina, you can choose, depending on availability, one of the following pickup points in Marrakech:

KFC Marrakech on Avenue Mohammed V
Moulay El Yazid Mosque on Rue de la Kasbah, 23
