The most fun thing about the trip to Essaouira was when we stopped the bus to catch the goats climbing the Argant trees. The visit to Medinan and Kasban towards the sea was quiet and nice without the annoying salesman. The little "uncle" guide in Essaouira spoke mostly unintelligible English, but it went well anyway. The visit to the Women's Co-operative of Argan products can be without. 1 minute view of the production and incredibly expensive prices. Saw it as a money donation to the Cooperative's upkeep for Marrocko's women.

Excellent Day in Essaouira

This was a magical day trip from Agadir. The tour guide, whose name escapes me and for which I am so sorry it does, made the day one of the best of my entire trip. He was incredibly personable and professional. He shared his knowledge throughout the drive and being that I was able to sit up front with him, explained much about the history and daily life in Morocco and was more than happy to answer all my questions. Essaouira was beautiful and our guide was a lovely older man who was happy to show us around. We had lunch at a touristy restaurant but the food, chicken tagine, was amazing. Stopped at an argan oil coop which was very informative and to see the goats in the trees which was incredible. Also had two bathroom breaks, one going and one coming. Excellent tour and highly recommend!

Very nice trip!

I highly recommend this tour to anyone vacationing in Agadir. Early in the morning we started in a very clean, new bus with some other tourists. Our tour guide spoke good English and German and was able to tell us a lot about Morocco. We made several stops. Once to see the goats climbing the argan trees and to take photos. Then we went to a women's village and looked at the production of argan oil. There were enough toilet breaks. Ultimately, these stops are more of a sales trip, since the goat shepherd received a small tip and we bought oil, honey, etc. in the women's village, but it was a nice experience that I don't want to miss. The city itself has a quaint harbor where you can get freshly caught fish served on every corner!
