About this activity

Relaxed day trip from Marrakech to the coastal town of Essaouira, exploring its UNESCO medina, historic fishing port, Skala ramparts and Atlantic beaches.

Marrakech sits within a few hours of the Atlas, the Atlantic and the desert, so a single day out covers a lot of ground. Check the driving time before comparing on price.

The activity itself runs for about 10 hours 30 minutes, and you should allow roughly 13 hours 30 minutes in total once travel to and from the meeting point is counted. You meet at Marrakech (hotel or riad pickup). It is run in English and French and Spanish.

It suits families, couples, kids under 12. The pace is moderate. Most people manage it comfortably. It is weather dependent, so book early in your trip and you will have days spare if the sea gets up.
