• Essaouira - Remember to bring a towel, sun protection and swimming attire if you wish to go swimming later in the day. Please be in the lobby at 8:00am. The driver should be there ready for you. You are to be taken via a 3-hour drive to the coastal town of Essaouira. En route, however, you are to make two stops. The first stop is at a café. There you can purchase refreshments as well as use the bathroom. The second stop is at a small factory where you can see the production of a local plant oil called argan. It is great for the skin and hair. Going from the café to the small factory, hopefully at some point you will see goats standing on the top of trees. They are often, but not always, there.
