The city of Essaouira is a UNESCO heritage site. It is an interesting change from the other cities in Morocco as it used to be a Portuguese fishing port so a lot of the architechture is inspired by the Portuguese. The journey itself is an interesting part of this day trip as it passes through several small villages and towns allowing you to see the typical life. If you are lucky, as you pass through the fields of Argan trees you will be able to stop and photograph the goats climbing the trees to eat the fruit. Once in Essaouira a guided tour will allow you to see the different areas of the walled city including the Ramparts of the Scala and Kasbah, the narrow streets of the medina home to the hundreds of shops and restaurants and riads. Of course the tour will also take you to the famous fishing port where you will see the boats and the fisherman bringing in the daily catch to sell. After this guided tour you have free time to explore the medina and there are plenty of perfect places to find somewhere to take your lunch.
