Description:
In Essaouira, retaining much of its Arabic charm, explore its exotic influences and French inspirations on this city tour. From the bustling fish market to an artist's workshop, interact with locals and get a taste of daily life as well as a grand view from the watchtower on the city ramparts.
At the oldest pastry shop in the city, where age-old family recipes are honed daily, snack on one of the sweet treats to prepare for the day’s adventure. With energy levels stocked, head to the city fortifications and the old watchtower. From here, gaze out at the stunning 360-degree views of the old port city and ocean beyond, revealing a handy overview of the surrounding area.
The catacomb alleys of the medina offer a very different setting and your expert guide has the inside track. Enter a talented artist’s studio for a chat and see handicrafts being made and sold at the source. Next, visit the vibrant fish market—the beating heart of the city—where the smells, sights, and sounds are sure to amaze.
Take a seat on a traditional wooden bench and tuck into today's freshly grilled catch; it may be sardines—a local favorite. With a classic Moroccan dessert to satisfy your sweet tooth and a cup of herbal tea to wash it down, end your excursion with a full stomach and the knowledge to make the most of your remaining time in Essaouira.
