Guided tour of Essaouira

Enjoy a guided tour of Essaouira this morning, starting around 9am, and discover its narrow lanes, artisans’ workshops, and bustling ishing harbor. We’ll enter the medina—a UNESCO World Heritage Site full of white-washed houses with cheerily painted blue doors—perhaps catching the pungent scent of freshly caught sardines grilling in the open
air and glimpsing dormant cannons standing guard over the ishing leets on the wharf. We’ll stroll through winding, narrow alleyways that make up the city center and watch as craftsmen carve ornate trinkets and boxes of lemonwood, briarwood, and mother of pearl inlay. Essaouira, once home to a large Jewish community, still has façades with the Star of David carved into them. We’ll also visit a series of commanding forts built along the seafront that are a mixture of Portuguese, French, and Berber military architectureもっと詳しく
