Highlights

Essaouira ex Mogador is an old town located at the edge of Atlantic Ocean founded by Sultan Mohamed ben abdellah 1760 located 170 km from Marrakech about 02h30 drive. Essaouira remains one of the best destinations from Marrakech. Essaouira has a fishing port where fishing is mainly sardines. Just like Marrakech it is an important tourist attraction. A small visit of the souks is essential with the splendid sight of the ocean since the ramparts and mainly since the Sakala. On the road to Essaouira, you will find many argan trees. These trees grow only in the south-west of Morocco. Trees at the age of forty produce fruit containing hard cores containing again seeds from which argan oil is obtained. This oil is used for cosmetic or culinary purposes.

About Marrakech

At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.

Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
