Great day out visiting a traditional seaside town with a madina which is easy to navigate and a fisherman's quayside where you can buy fresh fish and have it cooked in front of you... take a wet-wipe or two!! Thank you Charaf for an excellent day and for entertaining us!!!!

Incredible experience, Charaf has been the kindest person and has explained us at every moment the spaces, history and everything in a very funny way. We'd give it 10 but you can only 5 stars. I recommend 100 experience.

We arranged a good break on the way to Essaouira, visiting handmade and breakfast. Along the way the charaf guide gave a very careful reminder of the landscape passing by in detail. The service of charaf was very attentive and fun, added a lot of joy to our trip and highly recommended.
Nice trip to a beautiful place.

Flawless execution, pleasant guide and the destination itself (beautiful town of Essaouira) worked just fine. While I appreciate the PC aspects of the visit to the women’s argan oil cooperative, it is something one can easily skip (unless you’re interested). Essaouira is way different to Marrakech, which is a blessing if you’re familiar with the crowds in the medina. Fresh oysters @ €1.00 (!) were delightful!

Charaf is a very energetic guide with lively explanations. The ride to Essaouira, a beautiful and tranquil town at the seaside, is about 3 hours, and it was definitely worth it!
A beautiful and nice way to spend your time in Morocco!

The city was nice, the experience too, Charaf was a perfect guide to our trip. He is a guy who spend a lot of time explaining you the most interesting of the historical and cultural aspects of their land. Super advise to know him and his experience. He speak so well English and France and a little bit Italian too! In the way to essauira you’ll stop for some minutes into a traditional fabric of argon they will happy to share with you all the products and let you take some samples of different oil and bread. One of the best argan butter I ever ate.
