Essaouira Tours with Urban Adventures

We love Morocco, no doubt about that. However, sometimes the big cities can get a little overwhelming. The coastal paradise of Essaouira is like a breath of fresh air, and venturing through its magical streets with a local is the best way to explore it. On one of our Essaouira tours, we’ll take you to the cute pastry shops and hidden nooks and crannies that aren’t even common knowledge to the residents!

Our tour guide Said was excellent. Very Friendly and informative plus he went the extra mile when my husbands watch band broke he took us to a place to get it repaired. It cost us nothing and was very much appreciated as a local guide he knew where to go. The whole experience was a fantastic day with a great mix of history culture food and site seeing. Especially loved going to the food markets to buy our food and to a place we could have it cooked for us. We were the only non locals there it was a true local experience. And delicious!, Also we asked if he could recommend a Hammam place for us to experience and his recommendation was a great experience. A great day.

We would highly recommend this Urban Adventures tour for everyone who is planning a trip to Essaouria. Said, our phenomenal guide, made the day an extremely enjoyable one as we walked through various areas of Essaouria. He had a wealth of information about the history, food, and culture of the area to share with us. Being from Essaouria, Said was greeted warmly by many people we passed and by street vendors. This added a very personal touch to our tour as we felt included in these warm greetings.
Said is very willing to tailor the tour to your interests so one of the stops we made was at a musician’s workshop, which turned out to be a highlight of our trip to Morocco. Seeing the daily activities of the port, touring two synagogues, visiting artisans at work and art galleries are only a few of the experiences Said will offer on this tour.
Don’t miss out on a truly unique and memorable experience with Said in Essaouria!

We had a great day with Said! He was very punctual at the meeting point and was a great guide during the day. The food was delicous and Said gave us really good advices. We would highly recommend the tour to get to know Essaouira from local point of view and to eat fresh and awesome food.

Said was very personable and adjusted the tour to our liking and schedule. The patisserie and cooked lunch were a good tasting of local food. Would have skipped the 'art museum' if possible as we weren't in the market to buy anything. But tour very good sampling of Essaouria's sites and delights. The town is very different from the rest of Morocco.
