A city to come to more times. - Excellent, from the driver (Mohamed) who made the trip very pleasant and comfortable, to the guide (Abdul) who taught us everything from geography, economy, and religion of the city, thank you very much for your patience for the photos and the questions 🙏 👏

It was a really good day, but we sort of expected more time with the guide to learn about history, and not to feel hurried between every little alley. We were also taken to a little shop where we felt very... well, compelled to buy something for an extraordinary price. Overall, nice trip, nice guide, our favorite was our nice driver!. Hopefully we can return again without the tour guide though.</p>

This was by far, the WORST tour I... - <p>This was by far, the WORST tour I have ever booked through Viator. The driver, Hazma who was very nice, by the way drove us to our tour guide. I have no idea what his name was since he never introduced himself. He gave us little to no information about Chefchaouen and when we asked questions he was unable to provide any answers. We simply walked around for several hours while he told us where to make a picture. We never visited all of the sites the tour suggests we would see. His English was awful, his knowledge of Chefchaouen was deficient and his skills as a tour guide were awful. My family and I were so excited to see this magical city and we felt as though we missed the significance by not having a competent guide. One last important point: The Overview said that this is a Full Day Trip. It was not. This was a 6.5 hour trip and the Overview suggested it would be much longer. Make sure you see this city, just don't use this tour.</p>

Then he took us to a fancy and expensive store to buy carpets !! And the worst is that he took us for lunch at a expensive restaurant! On our way back the car broke down!</p>
