Reviews about our Day trip to Essaouira from Marrakech
Fantastic Essaouira Day Trip
Essaouira may be a fantastic place; a requirement for Moroccan adventure. Our tour guide/driver For this trip is Youssef.
I never posted any reviews on any apps or online, but at this point, I feel there's a requirement on behalf of me to write down a review for them. Youssef is a superb and professional guide with an honest heart.
He educated us on the history, culture, and other people of Morocco. this is often the primary tour we took in Morocco, and with him sharing his knowledge with us, we learned a lot about the country.
On our way back to the town, he stopped at an unconscious person on the road and called people’s attention nearby for help.
He also followed all the security and drive traffic controls. We felt really safe together with his driving.
We are very happy and satisfied with his behavior.
Essaouira Day Trip to the Seaside, port & souk
A beautiful place to go to far away from Marrakech. It's unique in its own way. It took us around 2 hrs. On the way, we stopped by a tremendous place where all the goats were on the trees like flowers. My 3yr old son and that I held a cute little goat. it had been so lovely.
Beautiful port with many boats and a view from the old fort.
The souk is extremely big with many restaurants, shops and a mosque. it had been prayer time and that I prayed in one among the mosques, then we visited to find a restaurant to eat. I need to recommend this restaurant because it was tucked away. it's called the Rempart.
They made a gorgeous grilled fish lunch with chips, salad, bread, and that I ordered some milky tea. Absolutely delicious and great Moroccan ambiance. Lovely furnishing.
We shopped a touch then visited by some frozen dessert for my son at an outside frozen dessert place.
Lovely day, Completely different to Marrakech.
