Fun & Private - This was an amazing tour including the highlights on Marrakech. We are so glad that we opt for the private tour and everything was catered to our interests. It was our first visit and were nervous and excited as the same time. We were met at our hotel by Mohammad and a driver. Our tour started from passing the Koutoubia mosque and the Roman Catholic church we were dropped at the entrance of the old Jewish Quarter. Our stops included traditional Moroccan herbal apothecary where we had the chance to sample some mint tea while discussing the properties of the various herbs and spices shops and traditional hand made Moroccan goods. We had a great time and Mohammad made sure we saw all the places that were important to us.

Great introduction to Marrakech - Our guide Mohammad and driver Saif did a great job showing us around Marrakech. The tour was divided half looking at sites and half exploring the Shouk. We had tried to navigate the Shouk on our own the day before and it was a bit of a disaster — having Mohammad with us made it a much different and more enjoyable trip!

Idris is an amazing guide!Great way to start in Marrakesh. - Idris is a very knowledgeable guide. He was early but waited patiently before reaching out as to not disturb us prior to the agreed time. There was a little communication mix up when I was corresponding with the tour company before arriving, but when I shared my concerns with Idris he quickly made adjustments to our tour plans to rectify them. His plan ended up better then what I’d originally arranged. He was professional, patient, and respectful towards my mother and I helping kick off her birthday trip with a wonderful start. Idris knew this was our first time in Marrakesh so provided recommendations on places to eat, when to go to certain areas to experience more of the local culture, etc. He made us feel safe in a new county and culture from the very beginning! Book him if you have the chance and you will be happy.

Culture, history and everyday life - The tour was very interesting and a good mix of culture, history and everyday life in Morocco. Hamza was very attentive and has a wealth of knowledge. We got a good overview and were also provided with tips. Also driver Abdu was very nice, he provided us with restaurant tips afterwards.

Feedback on Marrakesh - The tour guide was mainly pleasant and knowledgeable. Please don't buy into the blasé claim that they have no connection to any store owners in the souks. The guide intentionally left us alone at two shops. The one who sold us a fake cashmere scarf (having literally run away from pressure to buy more), and then, next, we overpaid for Argan oil. Other than that, it was a good experience to have.
