Welcome to Morocco!
We will start our tour in the coastal town of Agadir, located in the south & the hometown of your co-host, Samir Langus. Fly into Agadir on May 3rd. One airport shuttle will be available to take people to the hotel at 2PM.
Day 1 - Upon arrival to the hotel, you'll meet the group and team for check-in, starting at 3PM. Once everyone arrives, we'll meet for our first dinner together & opening night.
Day 2 - After breakfast we will visit the 16th-century kasbah, perched on a hilltop just outside of town. From there we will take a tram from the top of the hill that will give us panoramic views of Agadir.
We’ll stroll the historic medina and the atmospheric Talbourjt quarter & admire various landmarks throughout the city.
The rest of the afternoon can be spent enjoying Agadir’s sandy beaches.
After dinner, we will get our first musical immersion with a group of authentic Moroccan folk & Gnawa musicians at Jazzawiya.
