Guide was extremely... - Guide was extremely knowledgeable and spoke amazing English. Avoided queuing to purchase entry tickets when required and knew when to focus on certain tourist interests ahead of the rush.

Walking historical and cultural tour. Marrakech - We spent a lovely morning walking around Marrakesh visiting a beautiful Riad our guide explained it's significance and the beautiful design. He did the same at the Palace and the tombs. He didn't rush us. He was very knowledgeable and his English was very good . He was a lovely man.

First approach with Marrakech - Beautiful ride to the main points of Marrakech, very good and prepared guide. Wait about an hour for the visit of the Saadian tombs but overall experience not to be missed for a first approach with the city.

Really Enjoyable - I was a little nervous, as I didn't get a WhatsApp or message in TripAdvisor ahead of the tour, but the start point is the starting point for quite a few tours, so we waited there, and one of the other tour guides told us who our guide would be. Mohammed was a brilliant guide - knowledgeable, funny, engaging, and really brought the history to life - from the Bahia palace, to the Saadian tombs, the new (500 year old) Jewish quarter, and the Koutoubia mosque. He gave us loads (though not an overwhelming amount) of information on topics ranging from the history, to the architecture, and even natural dyes used, and managed to keep the whole group engaged for the whole tour.

Half Day tour of Marrakech - Useful introduction to Marrakech. Very interesting historical detail. And facts about the history of the city and Morocco.

Interesting visit - The guide was interesting. But accustomed to speaking German, our exchanges were less fluid in French. Anecdotes about Moroccan customs were missing from his guided tour which focused on the cultural and historical aspect of the city.
