Superb introduction to Fez - Khalifa was a fantastic guide! Fez can be an overwhelming city, so we were so grateful to have Khalifa to show us around. He was incredibly knowledgeable and showed us all the important sights. We learned a lot and really enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

Beautiful cultural tour of Fes el Bali - We went to Fes on Friday 13 December for a tour of the old Medina Fes el Bali. At our Riad it was already recommended to take a guide and afterwards had no regrets. Yes, you can do it yourself, but then you will walk past half the buildings/highlights. It was pretty quiet this Friday because of the afternoon prayer and because it was December, but we loved that. You can see and do a lot more when it's just a bit quieter, so a must for people who would like to walk on and do / see more in a day. You may miss the full streets and full walls in some places. Khlafa is from Fes and is an experienced guide, he knows a lot about the history of Fes and stops at the buildings worth mentioning. Because it was quiet, we had quiet time to watch, taste and listen everywhere. In short, a nice tour through Fes with Khlafa where we also brought some nice souvenirs at the tannery and weaving mill.

We loved this tour! - We had the best time exploring Fes with Khlafa. He is incredibly knowledgable and we learned loads about the culture, history and crafts of Fes. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to gain a deeper understanding of this amazing city. I think this was my favourite activity during our 2 weeks in Morocco. Thanks again Khlafa!

Best guide in Fes!!!! - Exceptional tour guide! Khlafa was the best guide I had during my two weeks in Morocco. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge and for taking us to the best spots in the city, thoroughly explaining everything along the way. If you’re visiting Fes, do yourself a favor and take this tour. You’ll have an intelligent, knowledgeable, and kind guide who will show you all the hidden gems and teach you everything there is to know about the city. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you, Khlafa—hopefully, our paths cross again!
