Great Day Trip Service - The driver was quick, efficient and showed us a lot of Casa in a short day. If you have a train layover in Casa, I couldn't recommend this service more. It avoids the really tricky taxi situation, and allows you to store your bags while you see sights and get some food. Thanks again Siad!

Definitely got my money’s worth - Younes is an excellent tour guide, very informative and punctual; if you’re looking for good food, he knows where it is. We were also able to go on a few mini tours, while on our way to the main attraction.

Great Casablanca tour - My husband and I were so fortunate to have Mohammed as our guide in Casablanca today! He took us all over his city and made sure we saw all the highlights. Mohammed is an exceptional guide and we hope to return some day to see more of Morocco. Would highly recommend this tour by Morroco Platinum tours.

Casablanca Through Guide Mohammed’s Eyes - Mohammed was the best guide: knowledgeable, courteous, warm…he called to confirm, picked me up on time and took me on a tour of Casablanca which included the HassanII mosque, the lighthouse, the corniche and seaside areas, a lovely church, a market with an olive market and ended at the central square. He described the history of Casablanca, various neighborhoods, changes over the years…and I think he knew everyone in town! This was a terrific introduction to Morocco’s largest city by the kindest guide…
