Essaouira is the place that we get the best feedback from our clients. It has a genuine year round climate, it is enough “off the beaten track” to still feel intimate and it has a wonderful selection of places to stay in the town itself or in the villages just outside. Visit between 29-01/07 and take part in the Gnaoua Festival. Reflecting African identity at its fullest, Gnaoua is a carnival like no other, with festival-goers dancing round Essaouira’s charming squares and labyrinth streets in a dazzling celebration of times past, present and future.
