Day 1

Marrakech → Essaouira

Your driver collects you from your Marrakech hotel in the morning for the scenic drive to Essaouira. In the Atlantic port of Essaouira you'll stroll the wind-swept ramparts, watch blue boats in the fishing harbour, browse art galleries and enjoy freshly grilled seafood in the laid-back medina. You'll have free time to explore at your own pace and to enjoy lunch (own account) before the return drive to Marrakech, arriving back in the late afternoon or evening. You travel privately with your own driver, so you can stop for photos and refreshments whenever something catches your eye. The drive itself is part of the experience, with ever-changing Moroccan scenery unfolding on both sides of the road. It's an easy, relaxed day out from the city and a great way to see a different side of Morocco without changing hotels. Your driver takes care of all the logistics, so you can simply sit back, relax and enjoy the trip.
