Ce qui vous attend

They call Essaouira the ‘Jewel of the Atlantic' for a reason. It's a whitewashed maze famous for its Medina, fishing village vibe and flocks of kite surfers. You'll explore the harbour, meander through the UNESCO-listed medina and catch up on its bohemian arts scenes. Ibrahim, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘An Essaouira born and bred Amazigh, my family moved when I was 14. Now, when I return, I'm filled with nostalgia as I tour the alleys I used to play football in with my Arab and Jewish friends. Essaouira has always been a multicultural melting pot.'

You'll get the lowdown on the city from your guide, learning about the port, municipal market, jewellers' district and artisan centres. Its mellow atmosphere, narrow winding streets laden with kaleidoscopic carpets, peeling-paint houses with and heavy old wooden doors make it a wonderful place to wander around. You'll walk the ramparts of the harbour, known as the Skala, where electric-blue boats bob in the water and see the collection of historic European brass cannons.

After lunch in a local restaurant inside the medina, we'll check out the artisan shops and galleries, known for handcrafted products made with thuya wood. The Othello arts space – named after the film of the Shakespeare play, which was partially shot in Essaouira – is worth a visit. We'll also drop into an argan oil cooperative, which was founded by local women, where you can try homemade local products such a mint tea, bread and amlou – a spread made from argan oil, honey and almonds.

Private horse-drawn carriage tour of Marrakech by night

Marrakech by night has to be seen to be believed. When dusk falls over Jemaa el-Fnaa, the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and the atmosphere is electric. You'll experience it with a private horse-and-carriage tour of the city in the evening, with time to soak up the magic of the square afterwards. Fatima, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘I'd often go by horse and carriage to get to school from my family's riad in the old medina. Horses, donkeys and mopeds are the only way to travel in the narrow alleys, and there are usually pedestrians, too. There's no point trying to rush in the medina.'Say hello to your horse and driver, then set off on your horse-drawn carriage tour to see the main sights in and around the medina. You'll trot along the 12th-century ramparts and down the main avenue, see the highlights of the Hivernage district, and ride through Bab Jdid, and Bab Ighali, two of Marrakech's ornate city gates. Next, you'll visit the Royal Palace district of Mechouar and head for La Kasbah Mellah, before finishing up at Jemaa el-Fnaa, the UNESCO World Heritage Site that is the beating heart of Marrakech.By day, it's a spacious town square, but by night it reinvents itself and puts on a spellbinding show. As the sun sinks low, stallholders arrive and set up shop. Acrobats flip. Storytellers enchant their audience. Fortune-tellers twist their cards. And cooks' grills sizzle with sweet-scented street food staples. An unmissable Marrakech experience.
