Magical tour, fantastic guide - Our guide was Yahaya and he exceptionally guided us through the alleys and streets of the Medina of Fes. Super helpful and kind, he explained to us all the secrets of this magical place where you would easily get lost on your own. I highly recommend this tour which can be tailored to the needs of the tourist.

Unique experience in the heart of Fes - The tour was fantastic. Yahya took us around the city, making us discover places and telling us about the history and culture of the place. He explained many stories to us that we would never have known without a good guide like him. He let us taste the best tea in the city in a special place that has existed for over 75 years. We highly recommend it to be able to visit the city in a quiet and safe way.

The best tour of the Medina - Yahya is very knowledgeable about the history of the Medina as he was born and grew up there. He took us through the Medina and taught us so much about the culture and history. He also gave us an experience that we would have never been able to find with the best tea we have had while in Morocco from the tea master. Yahya is very calm, patient and kind. I highly recommend taking a tour with him to show you the city of Fes and the Medina. He’s also an excellent driver.

Cultural tour of the Fes Medina - Yahya is a very pleasant and knowledgeable young man. We toured the historic medina with him today, it was the best experience I had during my 15 day trip to Morocco. Keep up the good work Yahya! Until the next time.

Authentic cultural walk - Easily the best tour I’ve taken. The guide, Yahya was very nice and knowledgeable. Besides just taking us to the typical tourist attractions, he was able to show us local shops and provide a more authentic experience for the city. He was knowledgeable and explained many of the intricacies behind the cities foundation and structure from road layouts and doors, to why specific materials were made for mosques, different buildings. We stopped at different stores and given fair prices for anything we purchased.

Memorable - Omg! I absolutely fell in love with Fes thanks to Yahya and Mohammed. I usually don’t do tours when traveling, but in Fes you need it. Yahya and Mohammed picked me up from the riyad right on time and took me to a whole day adventure. It was so much better than I expected, I am so happy I chose to do the tour with them. We went to different beautiful locations, they shared great stories, took bunch of awesome pictures and videos for me, bargained with sale people for me :) I got so many nice things and gifts. We finished the tour with mint tea and Moroccan sweets they got for me as a gift at a restaurant with a nice view. I was worried solo traveling to Morocco, but they made the start of my trip amazing and memorable and they also made me forget about the problems I have home. I absolutely recommend you to go with them. You will get to see Fes and have a great time. Thank you so much! I will be back for me.
