      Itinerary

      Day Trip: Essaouira
      Enjoy Morocco's Coastal City

      Your journey kicks off in Marrakech, the vibrant "Red City" of Morocco. Within a 2.5-hour drive, you'll reach the charming coastal gem of Essaouira. Known for its temperate climate, Essaouira offers a refreshing escape from Marrakech's summer heat. 


      In Essaouira, you can leisurely stroll along the beach and explore the historic ramparts constructed by the Portuguese. Whether you're a seafood enthusiast or prefer other culinary delights, Essaouira caters to all palates. Don't miss the opportunity to discover Morocco's renowned "liquid gold" – argan oil – sourced from the argan trees that thrive in the same region as Essaouira. By day's end, you'll return to Marrakech, having experienced the best of both worlds in this captivating day trip.


      You'll head back to Marrakech late afternoon. 


      Send us a message if you'd like to upgrade to an overnight in this amazing city.

      We had a fantastic trip and it went without a hitch from planning to execution. It was so wonderful to work with Nancy to craft our dream trip and she was so patient and prompt in answering all our questions. Nancy gave us great confidence that we were in good hands and we were indeed with Abdul, our host. Abdul exceeded our expectations, as more than just an awesome driver and cultural ambassador. We enjoyed sharing many of our adventures with Abdul and really appreciated his special efforts to share Morocco with us. Without reservation we will recommend Open Doors to all our friends. Our only regret was not staying longer—and I’m sure we will come back one day.

      This trip exceeded our expectations. It was a truly memorable visit, combining the usually visited places with unique, lesser traveled spots. It mixed fun and education - a wonderful cultural experience. Our guides were super - Kudos to Lahbib, Said and Ibrahim for their knowledge. resourcefulness and sense of humor. Among the highlights for us were the camel ride, a chance encounter with a Bedouin family, visiting medrasas and fascinating Kasbahs, Moulay Idris's panoramic beauty. The accommodations were fantastic - particularly the lovely Bab Oued Ecolodge. Overall this was a very well organized and thought out itinerary. Morocco is a fascinating country and this trip truly helped us realize that. We hope to see more of it in the future.

      I thoroughly enjoyed our Pockets of Light trip to Morocco. There was a great combination of opportunities to learn about the culture, history, food and so many different locations. I loved being able to meet locals, to visit historic sites while also watching skilled crafts people at work, and to see a variety of locations and countrysides. Because there was a focus on photography it was important to have guides and drivers who were flexible and patient and able to accomodate our group's needs . Abdul and Mohammed were amazing! The Riads we stayed at were so much fun and overall the food was delicious. The size of our group was a definite bonus. Really apprecated the planning and expertise that went into creating our itinerary.
