Itinerary
Start your day with a member of the Legendary Morocco team picking you up from your accommodation in Marrakech to embark on a scenic drive to Essaouira, also known as the “City of Wind.” On the way, enjoy a stop at one of the unique women’s Argan cooperatives, where you’ll learn about the fascinating process of extracting Argan oil—a prized product with renowned cosmetic and medicinal properties.
Arriving in Essaouira around 11:30 AM, begin exploring this charming coastal town, celebrated for its harmonious blend of cultures and religions. Wander through the Skala Fortress, a historical landmark offering stunning ocean views and a glimpse into the city’s fortified past. Stroll the alleys of the medina, where the iconic blue doors, whitewashed walls, and Portuguese-inspired architecture create a magical atmosphere. You’ll also explore the Mellah, the old Jewish quarter, immersing yourself in the city’s rich history and multicultural legacy.
For lunch, savor a delicious meal at a restaurant overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, taking in the fresh sea breeze and the breathtaking views. Afterward, take a leisurely walk along Essaouira’s expansive beach, where surfers from around the globe ride the waves in this renowned windsurfing destination.
As the day winds down, head back to Marrakech, arriving in the evening to conclude your memorable journey. This tour perfectly balances cultural exploration, historical insight, and coastal relaxation.
