What to do and see in Agadir, Souss-Massa-Draa Region: The Best Historical & Heritage Tours

January 8, 2022 Viva Honore

Soak up the sun on the well-maintained beaches of Agadir, southern Morocco's most-visited city. Palm-lined boulevards and beachfront bars add a decidedly Western-resort feel, amplified by the large number of Europeans who flock here in the winter months. It’s all about laid-back relaxation in Agadir, so ride a camel, rent a beach buggy, check out the Suq al-Had market or take the 20-minute walk up to the ruins of the Agadir Kasbah for expansive city views if you’re taking a break from the beach.

An unforgettable experience. First of all, our driver Hassan was very friendly, polite, and a gentleman. There are lots of trips to the Atlas Mountains available, but a great driver and guide makes a lot of difference. Our first stop was at an Argan Oil cooperative. We were also served refreshments and tea here, which was very lovely. There was no pressure to buy anything at all, during the time we were there. Tip: if you're planning to buy organic, natural argan oil - buy it from here. The feel of their argan oil on your skin is incomparable to those you find in the Medina. We then began our ascent to the Atlas Mountains. We stopped at a beautiful Mosque which was built in the early 13th century. This was my favourite part, as the Mosque was placed with a backdrop of the beautiful mountains. It was also very tranquil and calm. Afterwards, we were invited to a local Berber family's home for lunch. The lunch was delicious, and their hospitality was heartwarming.

Its a nice drive to the Paradise Valley. When we arrived been welcomed by 3 wild dogs who went walking with us. When we actually arrived at the Valley was so disappointed, the place is full of rubbish, chairs and tables in the lake :( The man lake where you use to be able to do cliff jumping was dry ( no rain for 3 years ) wish they have told us about it as that was the main reason we went, we actually wanted to swim in it. Overall it was still nice site seeing and nice walk.

Taroudant is also called 'Grandmother of Marrakech' because it looks like small Marrakech with its surrounding ramparts, but unlike Marrakech almost entire city is located inside its walls. The Saadians briefly used it as a capital in the 16th century, before moving to Marrakech.  Tioute is situated 25km southwest of Taroudant and that is where not of the biggest stone-built kasbah in the south and is still owned by the local caid. Bacause of its wonderful romantic sight, this location was used in Jacques Becker's French film Ali Baba and the forty thieves in 1954.

The organised tours are likely to take you to the filthy, litter-ridden, tourist-heavy sections of this valley. It probably was beautiful once, but human lack of environmental concern has ashamedly tarred much of this supposed Paradise. The more scenic sections can be found with local information and taking a good, long walk. I can't entirely write it off, we saw plenty of wildlife and there are some good photo opportunities but with a sad price - tag.

So, having booked through Tripadvisor before and had thus far had very good experiences, you would think it would be a safe bet to pre-book an excursion or two in advance of going away...but no. Not this time...which is exceptionally frustrating considering we were really looking forward to seeing the Berber Show. So we were left waiting an hour, had no contact via Tripadvisor, Viator or Agadir Tours/Trips before hand or during the hour long wait. In the end, I had to call Viator from my phone (which has charged me FYI) to find out what was happening, ended up having my booking cancelled. So am now left feeling incredibly angry and frustrated, this whole incident spoiled our evening and trip.
