About this activity
Day trip from Marrakesh to the UNESCO coastal town of Essaouira, exploring its port, medina, historic ramparts and Atlantic beaches while learning about argan oil production.
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 12 hours, and you should allow roughly 15 hours 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, low mobility, 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.
Afternoon. Full day; ~12 hours, flexible daily departures.
