Itinerary
Then a historical visit of the old medina of Tiznit known as the silver city. To visit the fortified rampart of the Medina. The city was founded in 1882 during the reign of Mawlāy Hassan as a military base. from where he launched expeditions to subjugate the peoples of the region of the Sous River (Oued Sous) and the neighboring mountainous regions. Then watch the making of Berber silver jewelry.
The dam of the Youssef Ibn Tachfin dam, 707 meters long, has created an artificial lake but the impression of freshness is not necessarily there in this hot region of southern Morocco. Leaning on the edges of the Anti-Atlas, the dam is 85 meters high: a beautiful structure installed on one of the arms of the Massa wadi. The lake stretches beautifully over seven kilometers in length: this water reserve is intended to irrigate the Chtouka plain, which receives little rainfall, to grow vegetables and citrus fruit there, as in the neighboring Souss plain.

Loved this trip. Good to have travelled with a lot of other people. The trip was organised well and the safari was amazing!
Well first it was a seven seater car , and we where the unlucky 2 to be collected last. The four other adults we’re never going to rotate seats ( not sure what would have happened if driver collected us first??) We probably would have given our seats anyway up and sat in the back like 2 small children do !! One couple where ok , but the other couple where down right rude , especially to the driver !! . We would have paid the extra had we known that we would end up pressed in the back two seats. And a whole day with a very rude passenger. We felt sorry for the driver, and we missed out on the information been at the back of the car.
As is known about us, our service is to make the customer enjoy his trip and be satisfied with our services, but this trip treats the guide professionally towards the rudeness of the customer towards other customers, and in this I think we deserve five stars instead of three
An excellent day out! Lassin was the perfect guide & driver. He made sure that we were comfortable & happy. The optional camel ride was fun (€5) Lunch in a Berber house was delicious & traditional. Tagine, couscous & fresh oranges. Soft drinks are extra (10 dirham each) I would recommend this trip if it is the only time you leave the resort area. It gives the opportunity to experience some of the local way of life & enjoy some stunning coastal scenery. We were collected from the hotel at 8.30am & returned by 5pm. There was a lot of driving involved but we had regular stops along the way.
Brilliant trip, a must do to get a taste of the surrounding areas of Agadir. It is a long day, but by the end you feel like you've seen and done everything which is perfect. Khalid, our tour guide, was very lovely and looked after us and answered our questions. Would recommend this to anyone visiting Agadir if they want to go beyond the resorts.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a brilliant trip and enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas of Agadir. It’s great to know that Khalid took such good care of you and provided insightful answers to your questions. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Very great impressions and different, beautiful landscapes. Lunch was authentic and very delicious. Could sit alone for us. Our guide was super nice and responded to our wishes. Highly recommended!
It was a good day trip with lot of distance covered and lot to explore. However the guide should have given more information about the sights he is covering and where he is heading next. The lunch was good but spending 1 1/2 hours for that was too much and it seemed the guide didn't cover all the places as advertised.
Fantastic experience, great guide (Hatim) and amazing food…… experienced the REAL Morocco, highly recommend
Abdou the driver was polite and knowledgeable and ensured that everything he commented on was in both French and English. His driving was great and he went out of his way to show us as much as he could in the time. The 'sahara' bit at the end was a little twee with a camel ride round an Argan tree and a local with a couple of snakes in a box. However, the authentic Berber lunch was quite something. Well off the beaten track, great tagine and everyone enjoying themselves. Atlantic coastline was amazing. A really great trip for those only here for a few days. Thanks!
I used this trip and I was thinking that I would find all this surprising in this trip,honestly it’s good choice the drive and the people all was fantastic
Amazing day from start to finish. Our guide was a lovely, genuine young man who did everything he could to ensure we enjoyed our day. I wish I could remember his name as he definitely deserves a shout out. He picked us up & dropped us off at the door of our hotel. (Les Dunes D’or) the day trip its self was perfect. My husband & I throughly enjoyed the day.
