Overview
Meet your driver either at your hotel or a central location in Marrakech to embark on a journey to Essaouira, a relaxed city refreshed by sea breezes. En route to Essaouira, pause at an Argan oil cooperative to learn about the production of this precious oil using conventional methods.
Upon arrival in Essaouira, take a short guided walking tour to get familiar with the UNESCO-listed historic center, which is encircled by fortifications that offer spectacular ocean views.
