In Ourika Valley, we will take numerous photos and refresh ourselves with mint tea at one of the traditional Berber houses that greet us along the way. We will visit a workshop where we can see handwoven carpets and rugs that bear traces of Berber culture, and we will tour the Majorelle Garden, one of the most beautiful places in Marrakech, established by the French furniture designer and painter Jacques Majorelle and later transformed into its current form by the famous fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent.

Then we arrive at Essaouira, a city on the Atlantic Ocean coast that reminds us of the old Bodrum, and is the famous former Portuguese city. Declared a "World Heritage Site" by UNESCO, the city features a fisherman’s port, and is a seaside town where art and culture intertwine, as well as being the backdrop for many productions like Orson Welles's Othello and the highly watched series Game of Thrones. The city’s ramparts, fishing port, and Medina constructed by adapting elements from ancient Roman cities are among the sights. You can explore and enjoy shopping in the narrow labyrinth streets that you won’t get enough of. After the tour, we transfer to our hotel in Casablanca and have free time to relax.
