The experience

We were barely out of Agadir when our driver slowed down and pointed (“Look, up there!”), and sure enough, goats, just casually perched in the branches of an argan tree. I’d seen photos before, but seeing it in real life was something else. The air smelled faintly sweet from the orchards nearby, and the morning sun was already warming up the plain. The drive to Taroudant took about an hour and a half, but honestly, it flew by with all the little stories our guide shared about the Souss region.

Rolling into Taroudant felt like stepping into another era: the old city walls stretch for what seems like forever, this reddish earth color that glows against the sky. We circled around them slowly in our air-conditioned van (thankful for that), then hopped out for a quick coffee right in the center of the medina. There was this low hum of voices and clinking cups, and I remember thinking how different it felt from Agadir: more compact, maybe a bit sleepier but full of character.

The real adventure started wandering through the labyrinthine souks. Our guide led us past stalls packed with spices and leatherwork. He’d stop now and then to introduce us to artisans or explain what made Berber jewelry unique. At one point I caught a whiff of fresh mint as we passed a tea vendor: tiny detail, but it stuck with me. We finished up at Asarag square where snake charmers played their flutes and water sellers posed for photos in their bright costumes. After all that noise and color, sitting back in the van felt oddly peaceful on the way home.
