Excellent Marrakech activity - We were fortunate to have the same guide as we did the previous day on another trip. Charif was again excellent and shared so much of his knowledge and passion for his beautiful country. He also treated us to some snacks, and mint tea of course, along the way!
This trip is highly recommended with Charif and good value for money.

Wonderful tour - We had a great time on this tour. Plenty of time to take in all the sights and wander around the souks. Our excellent tour guide Sharif had a wealth of knowledge and was polite and friendly. We had lovely chats with him. Highly recommend this tour.

Amazing tour with an excellent guide - The tour exceeded all my expectations. Wonderful finding out the history from our very knowledgeable and accommodating guide Hassan. There aren't enough words to describe how enjoyable this tour was. Highly recommend people add this tour for an authentic taste of Marrakesh.

Exploring the hidden Marrakesh - We had a wonderful tour of the Medina of Marrakesh with Abdel. We saw so much more than we had seen walking around on our own 2 days before. I particularly enjoyed the hidden local aspects. Abdel was very knowledgeable and welcoming, would highly recommend his tour

Marrakesh Medina and Souks - It’s well worth having a guide to navigate the souks and avoid the scammers. There are quite a few but once they know you’re with a Guide they back off.
Abdul was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He took us to places we would have walked straight past…the community bakery and various workshops.
He answered all of our questions and was very accommodating.
As with any of these trips be prepared to be taken to certain stalls to be give a ‘free talk/demonstration.’ You aren’t under any pressure to buy anything…😂😂

Excellent - The tour was excellent! Jamal was very patient and informative. The private car was a plus for moving to the Marjorelle gardens and other places a little bit quicker. Recomended!

Navigate Medina Artisan shops with a Guide - Our guide, Ali, was an energetic pro who escorted us on a brisk and colorful tour of the Medina. We had the option to tour the Ben Youssef Medersa and the Musee de Marrakech which we did and recommend (small additional entrance fees). Ali is a story teller and shared information in between the 5 authentic artisan shops we visited (leather, lamps, rugs, herbs/oils/spices and jewelry). This was an enjoyable, educational and no pressure shopping experience. We appreciated navigating the Medina with an expert. We taught Ali about college football—Roll Tide!

Average - While the guides knowledge of the history of Marrakesh was very impressive at times it seemed like we were wondering aimlessly

Informative but expensive - Our guide was very knowledgable about the Souks but we didn’t see all of the sights listed in the itinerary. I feel like we didn’t get what we paid for and it was very expensive for what we got.
