Itinerary
The marina is built on an area of 18 hectares, by the sea, in front of the bay. It is one of the most important tourist projects in Morocco. Its promoters Aziz Akhannouch, Ali Ouakrim and Ali Zaid have made an investment of 18 million dirhams. A Canarian company Marinas Canarias built a large part in partnership with the company Marina Agadir. This represented one of the first economic cooperation projects between the Agadir Souss-Massa Draâ region and the government of the Canary Islands. Officially inaugurated in September 2007, the marina consists of residences, hotels, and almost 130 shops, but also restaurants and cafes and a marina for about 300 boats. The marina is the ideal place to relax during the day or in the evening.
the castle, known and named as “Agadir Oufella”, built in the 16th century, but crumbled during the 1960’s earthquake. This Kasbah is perched on a high hilltop where you will enjoy a fabulous view of Agadir city and its surroundings.
The mosque in the Talborjt district, the largest in the city, is located at the intersection of February 29 Street and General Kettani Avenue. It bears the name of the grandfather of the current King Mohamed VI. The carved wooden doors, the work of the mosaics and its majestic size make it one of the most beautiful mosques in the region. As in other mosques in the Kingdom, access is restricted to Muslims.
“Souk Al Had” the largest market in the city; a very interesting one for all sorts of shopping.

5Half day tour with the world’s best guide!
I honestly had the most fantastic time! Houcine was our driver from the airport and he was so friendly, informative and excited to share his country and culture with us that I did not hesitate to book another tour with him. The communication was excellent, the price was reasonable, he arrived slightly early and packed in so much to our half day. I went on my own with him as the friends I was staying with were busy and I felt very safe and well looked after. We had great chats, he shared stories and pointed out loads of things that I wouldn’t have otherwise thought to ask about. He was flexible with timings for the day and so patient waiting while I shopped for souvenirs and tried out the different argan oils! There was also no pressure at all to purchase anything in the places we stopped and he also was really impartial when giving advice about other things to do in the area which I appreciated. I can highly recommend the cable car up to the Kasbah and the wonderful views at the top! I got chatting to two lovely ladies in the cable car who were also wonderful guides and we were firm friends by the time we came back down! Everyone is so so friendly and welcoming in Morocco. Houcine was there waiting for me when I got back down from the Kasbah and delivered me safely and quickly back to my accommodation. A wonderful day and I can’t thank him enough for making my holiday even more memorable.
5A personally-curated taxi/tour
Hussein was a great guide and gave us lots of info about the area whilst taking us between sites. We had the tour to ourselves and Hussein checked before we started what things we would like to see (and so we avoided the usual shops and argan oil factory which we did not want to see). Hussein dropped us off at the sights we wanted and left us to wander on our own. We never felt pressured to stick to a time or to hurry. If you are looking for a knowledgeable private driver for a personally-curated tour/taxi then this is the perfect tour.
5Excellent experience
Bouchab is a very patient , pleasant driver, very knowledgeable about his area, we really enjoyed his company throughout all the trips
2No the best tour for this beautiful city
Agadir is a beautiful city, but unfortunately this tour did not allow us to truly experience it. The tour focused almost entirely on visiting markets and stores, and it was obvious that the guide had agreements with the places we were taken to. With today’s live translation tools, it was easy to understand what was being said in different languages. At the Souk, the guide was telling vendors to charge higher prices because we were tourists. Later, when we visited the Kasbah for the city views, the experience felt more like a tourist trap when he encouraged some people in the group to ride camels and take photos. It is well known that camel handlers often demand excessive prices and avoid setting a clear price in advance. Morocco is a country with beautiful people but experience like this one left you with a bad impression of them. Overall, this was an unpleasant and disappointing experience. One of the main reasons people book a tour is for safety, transparency, and peace of mind, and this tour did not provide that.
5Truly the best!
Mohammed was a fantastic tour guide! We had a group of eight including a two year-old baby and 88 year-old grandpa. Muhammad was incredibly kind and accommodating with the entire group. He was also very educational and we learned so much on his tour. His friendliness and positive energy makes you feel completely comfortable and at ease. They picked us up at our cruise port and were very timely and punctual. And we returned to our ship with plenty of time before our cruise departure. Highly recommended!
5Great tour highly recommended
Well worth it! We had an amazing time our guide was very attentive and made sure everyone had the experience they wanted.

About Agadir
Agadir is Morocco's sunny Atlantic resort, with a long sandy bay, a palm-lined promenade and the High Atlas and the Souss Valley at its back.
The city's broad crescent of sand stretches for miles, backed by a seafront promenade lined with cafés and restaurants. Above it, the hilltop ruins of the old kasbah, Agadir Oufella, give sweeping views across the bay, with the national motto spelled out in giant Arabic letters on the slope beneath.
