Traveler reviews
Experience can be better...
Experience can be better if driver can communicate with us for a bit more information about the time scale of reaching to and back from hotel to the destination, other than that, we enjoyed the visit
Self-guided travel...
Autonomous travel remember to search for what you want to do upstream! Very good driver! Watch out for the smell on the port with the heat!
Nice day trip to Essaouira albeit long driving
Long day with lots of mini bus driving, too much. Could easily shave 1h30 from whole day by shortening and skipping some breaks. Though it delivered what was promissed on the ad.
It's amazing.
The bus was comfortable and arrived almost on time. It was easy to see where to pick him up. Essaouira is a calm port city Thank you for the good experience.
Beautiful town and fishing port was fantastic
Very professional pick up service and a very comfortable minibus correct number of stops for a 3.5 hour trip
