Taroudant day trip from Agadir
Taroudant is often called the little Marrakech: a walled town of red earth ramparts in the Souss valley, with busy souks and very few tourists. Nearby, the oasis of Tiout is a green pocket of palms below an old kasbah. A relaxed day of real Moroccan town life, close to Agadir.
How the day goes
Pick-up at your hotel and drive east across the Souss plain, with a stop at a women's argan oil cooperative.
Arrive in Taroudant and drive or ride a calèche around the ramparts, then walk through the souks, known for leather, silver and spices.
Lunch in the medina.
The palm oasis and old kasbah of Tiout, then the drive back to Agadir in the late afternoon.
