During the drive we will pass through Argan forests, stop and see goats in trees and visit one of the women’s cooperatives which produce argan oil for cosmetic, medical and culinary use.
After arriving in Essaouira you will be met by our local knowledgeable guide for a wonderful tour of the town. You will visit the Skala fortress, see the magnificent canons and watch falcons, and gulls hover above the nature reserve on the Purpuraires Islands. To the north of the Skala you may see surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers all taming the waves. Be sure to ask your guide to show you the many places in Essaouira immortalized in film. Your guide will take you to the fishing port with its bustling fish market and through the medina where you will learn more of the town’s fascinating history and see many artisans at work including the Thuya (a local wood) carvers.
