THINGS TO DO IN MOROCCO

The Medina of Essaouira, formerly named Mogador (name originating from the Phoenician word Migdol meaning a « small fortress »), is an outstanding example of a fortified town of the mid-eighteenth century, surrounded by a wall influenced by the Vauban model. Constructed according to the principles of contemporary European military architecture, in a North African context, in perfect harmony with the precepts of Arabo-Muslim architecture and town-planning, it has played a major role over the centuries as an international trading seaport, linking Morocco and sub-Saharan Africa with Europe and the rest of the world. The town is also an example of a multicultural centre as proven by the coexistence, since its foundation, of diverse ethnic groups, such as the Amazighs, Arabs, Africans, and Europeans as well as multiconfessional (Muslim, Christian and Jewish). Indissociable from the Medina, the Mogador archipelago comprises a large number of cultural and natural sites .
Our tour will start by driving for a couple of hours through the atlas mountain, with few stops along the way:
First stop to see some “flying goats” climbing the Argan trees looking for the fresh nuts.

Second stop to relax and have a coffee break in a berber village.
Third stop to visit the Argan Oil factory.
Once in Essaouira, you will have free time to admire its fortifications, the fishing port and the labyrinthian old town, where you can bask in the atmosphere and the day to day life of its inhabitants. The town too boasts a seemingly unending beach and it is recommended to try the delicious freshly caught fish and seafood.
After your free time to enjoy the city and its beautiful sunny beaches, return to the road for your trip back to Agadir with few Stops along the way again, to rest and watch the sunset on a wild beach.
