Essaouira Tours and Trips

This was my 1st tour and 1st time using Explore and I would highly recommend them! I love that it was a small group of 12 and we had a fabulous tour guide, Mohammed! He shared so much of his knowledge and experience with us that it truly made the tour a wonderful way to visit Morocco! Although the highlights were many, having the last 3 days and nights in Essaouria, with lots of free time to explore or do nothing at the beach, was a great finish!

Great tour, visiting all the main towns/ cities in Morocco. Staying in great riads/ kasbah. Lots of free time for individual exploration . Tour manager Hussain was excellent and a real professional and all the local guides were great. All in all , a great trip!

The Guide, Ibrahim was the best! As "upgrades", the accommodations were no better than any hotels in the past on regular tours. In fact, a few were awful. The "upgrade" status of the tour was a very bad joke. However, the locations of the hotels were great; no concerns there. Outside the hotels, the tour was great! Charlie McGivern

Great trip with a first class Explore Leader - Ibrahim. Lots of variety. We stayed in some lovely riads conveniently located within the medinas. Ibrahim was aware of all the group members’ needs and responded to them. He gave us a lot of interesting information about Morocco going into more detail if individuals wanted that. I’ve been home for 36 hours and have already recommended the holiday.

An excellent tour of Morocco with a wide variety of activities and experiences staying in beautiful riads. Highlights include the stunning blue city of Chefchaouen, the stunning landscapes around Ouzoud and the delicious meals cooked in private houses.

Excellent holiday but perhaps the long day driving to see the roman ruins and the vineyard could be missed out. It was a considerable amount of driving for a 30 min tour of the ruins and a 10 min tour of the vineyard. Another night at Ouzoud would perhaps be better. The local guides were excellent, in particular the two in Marrakech and Essaouria. Very insightful. Riads and Dars were all excellent (with much needed air conditioning). The meals in the family homes were a lovely insight into local culture with mouth watering food.
