Itinerary
Visit the historic Kasbah Agadir Oufella, a 16th-century fortress perched on a hilltop overlooking the city. Explore the ruins of this ancient citadel and marvel at the breathtaking panoramic views of Agadir, the Atlantic Ocean, and the surrounding mountains. Learn about the Kasbah’s history and its significance as a symbol of the city’s resilience after the 1960 earthquake.
Admire the stunning architecture of the Mohammed V Mosque, one of Agadir’s most iconic landmarks. Discover its intricate design, featuring a beautiful minaret and traditional Moroccan elements, while learning about its cultural and religious significance in the local community.
Step into a local cooperative to discover the art of traditional Moroccan craftsmanship. Learn about the production of artisanal products like argan oil, and witness firsthand the techniques passed down through generations. This stop offers a unique opportunity to engage with local culture and purchase authentic souvenirs.
Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of Souk El Had, Agadir’s largest traditional market. Wander through bustling aisles filled with colorful stalls, where you’ll find everything from fresh produce and spices to handmade crafts and souvenirs. Experience the lively energy of local life and haggle for unique treasures to take home. ⚠️We inform you that Souk El Had is closed on Mondays, which is the weekly rest day for all market vendors. This closure applies to all bookings scheduled on that day. Instead, we suggest replacing the visit to Souk El Had with a visit to Kasbah Souss, a vibrant artisanal souk showcasing local craftsmanship.⚠️
Explore the Medina of Agadir, a beautifully reconstructed traditional village that offers a glimpse into Morocco’s rich cultural heritage. Wander through its narrow streets, admire the authentic architecture, and browse local artisan shops. Please note: The Medina visit is included only for departures before 5 PM. The entrance fee to the Medina is 4 Euros (or equivalent in Dirhams — we recommend paying in Dirhams for convenience).

We booked this tour while our cruise ship was docked at Agadir for the day and had an excellent time. Pre-trip communication from Agadir.Stories was excellent - they even sent us a photo of our guide in advance. Our guide and driver were great and they were happy to adjust the itinerary based on the wished of the tour guests. The minibus was comfortable and bottled water was provided for guests. We were even given advice on how to negotiate with vendors and avoid being taken advantage of. Overall, this tour was an excellent introduction to the city of Agadir (and a lot less expensive than the equivalent tour offered by the cruise line).

We’re especially pleased that you appreciated the flexibility of the itinerary, the comfort of the minibus, and the small details such as providing bottled water. Helping our guests feel confident when interacting with local vendors is also something we’re very happy to offer, so we’re glad you found that advice useful.
