Overview

This route can suit a traveller who wants two contrasting cities without booking separate out-and-back day trips from Agadir. The first day follows the coast to Essaouira before continuing inland to Marrakech for the night. Day two is devoted to the city visit before returning towards Agadir. You gain an overnight stay but also need to pack and change accommodation, so consider how that fits your main holiday booking. Read the meal and monument-entry details separately from the hotel inclusion rather than assuming every expense is covered.
