We absolutely loved this tour. Our driver guide spoke excellent English and he didn’t go anywhere “special”. (like carpet factories or argan oil), there were only 5 of us in a very nice van. After the beautiful park where we saw many animals, we went to a fishing village where there were camels and bald ibises which I wanted to see. Riding a camel was super cheap and fun! I would highly recommend this tour and in particular Agadir Experience.
Good guide and a very nice trip for those who love nature and wildlife. Most of them looked like pure safari.
Our guide right off the bat was awesome! We first took up the river to the kings palace where we saw a flock of flamingos. He explained how the tour would go and was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. He was very patient taking photos for us and also took photos for us. Souss Massa park was amazing! We saw so many male and female ostriches. Many thanks to Agadir Experience for this memorable day.
