Has anyone done the trip from Agadir, would be interested in comments, ie travel time.

We've done this trip. It was a few hours drive, four as far as I can remember, but worth it as Marrakech is a fabulous place.

We did this trip recently . It is a long day , left at 6.00 and back around 18.30 travel time each way about 4hrs including a comfort break . Time in Marrakech included lunch with entertainment, plus some free time , as well as a guided tour. Our guide was excellent, spoke perfect English, knowledgeable, and worked to ensure we got the most from the day, I suppose that made a big difference . Bus was modern and comfortable and Marrakech itself is a one off . The day we went we were just over the threshold in numbers for trip being done , this in fact was a bonus as we were a smaller group than is often the case on cruise excursions .You will get pestered to buy all kinds of things but no worse than many other places.Spoke to a few of the other passengers on the tour and feedback was positive but most like ourselves felt it was good to visit for a few hours but maybe not a destination for a weeks land based holiday. Having said that there were lots of tourists around. The Thomson excursion description is accurate and explains well what the day involves.

Thanks to all for the replies, it sounds worthwhile.
