A great way too see more of Marrakesh in a short time - More praise for Youseff ! We really enjoyed our morning with him and learned a lot about the history of Marrakesh as well as how life has been here in recent times during and since the pandemic. He used live tracking to show us his location when we were initially meeting up and again when dropping us off and collecting us again. He adapted the morning around what we had already seen and suggested alternatives such as the El Badi Palace which was well worth the visit. By taking us around the various and contrasting neighbourhoods in the city we saw far more than would otherwise have been possible

Exceptional! - Was a lovely tour, getting to see Marrakech. Youssef and Mustapha were pleasant and lovely. We especially want to thank Nour for being a problem solver and God sent when one member of our group was stranded at the hotel. You have resorted our faith in humanity, we are grateful!
I recommend them 1000%

Purchase Garden Tickets before tour - Great experience driving around the city.
I didn't realise the significance of purchasing the garden & museum tickets before the tour.
If I didn't read correctly, I would suggest making more mention of how important it is to purchase tickets beforehand, as it's very difficult to impossible to purchase tickets on the day.

Cactus garden with a difference - The was so much hype of garden. It's a largely cactus garden with a few blue coloured structures, hardly merits price of entry ticket. May the expectations were high and these fallen short of. The cactus trees are worth seeing as such sizes and variety is hardly seen anywhere. The garden is small and one can see whole garden within 50 minutes comfortably.

Cab ride only - First- our driver was very nice and told us a bit about where we were going. As noted by others-it really is just a cab ride to a few things-no admissions included, and really if you are staying in the Medina-you can more efficiently walk to all places except maybe the Jardin and Yves st Laurent museum. A cab to those from Medina is maybe 5 eu.
1) get tickets to the Jardin Marjolle (sp?) as far in advance as possible-we were there in a busy time (new years week)and couldn’t get tickets the entire three days we were there. Our driver took us there, you can’t see it from the outside, so if you don’t have tickets don’t go-we literally had a cup of coffee in a local shop-no garden.
Our trip include a stop at a ‘traditional pharmacy’, which was basically a 20 min sales pitch-this is a common theme among the Moroccan tours we took-this place was adjacent to the Salian tombs, a little disappointing and a waste of our time, though the sales person was nice.
I’d spend your money on a good walking tour around the Medina-or just do it yourself and get tours of the actual places-most of the cool places are close enough to walk-Bahia palace, cashbah(it’s just a market), kousubian mosque and Gardens, main square, etc.
we spend most of our time in terrible traffic to go short distances.
Nice guy, polite, no issues, just not much value for the money.

It's okay, but not necessary - It is nice to see the city, and the driver was nice and helpful. But essentially all you are paying for is a €28 taxi service.
