Highlights
  • Medina of Marrakesh - Marrakech’s medina is about as close to an Indiana Jones movie as you can get. It’s a maze of smoky street side grills and snake charmers, Berber carpets and calls to prayer, swaying palms and Arabic coffee houses.
    But it’s the food that makes this city so special. Forget soggy sfenj and mediocre tagines. Over four hours…

Additional Information

Our Marrakech tour digs deep into what the city’s cuisine is all about. It’s a crash course in the street eats of the city, how they are made and their fascinating history.

We’ll see you there, inshallah.

Location
Optma Conseil Plus (Boussalem Mohamed Standard)
The tour starts from the arches of the Bab Doukkala gate. There are two smaller pedestrian arches either side, one of which is next to a little kiosk - where your guide will be waiting. The two central arches of the gate have roads that lead between the medina and the new town.

Delightful, filling and plenty of walking/exploring - This encompassed everything about local food culture in Marrakesh we could have imagined and then some. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable; the vendors know and like him. If you aren’t able to walk 4+ miles through narrow streets and keep a good pace this tour (and Marrakech in general) may not be for you. But if you’re interested in the culture and tastes of this place we highly recommend.

BEST TOUR EVER!!!!! - AMAZING! Best food tour ever. 10/10. This tour was a highlight of our honeymoon trip. Everything we ate was delicious and unique. The knowledge and personality of our guide, Rachid, was outstanding. Rachid was fun, accommodating, friendly, and a wealth of knowledge. It was such a wonderful opportunity to talk to so many locals and understand the culture, business, and cuisine in a way that would not have been otherwise possible. Do not miss this tour if you are in Marrakech. It is a must do! I also recommend taking it early on your trip to learn how to navigate the souks, know where the craftsmen are, understand all the different food you can eat from the vendors, and where to go back to

An amazing tour! - We were really keen to explore local foods in Marrakech and Rachid helped us to do exactly that! This tour far exceeded our expectations and was packed full of insight about the local culture as well as tasty food stops - we were taken out of our comfort zones, but everything we tasted was delicious. It was a great way to find out more about the local culture and traditions, as well as trying new food, and the four hours flew by. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Marrakech!

Great food in great company! - We had a wonderful time exploring the Medina. All the foods selected were from great places which we wouldn't have ventured to and tried were not for the tour. The host was great and very attentive, interacted with all the group and made sure we were all having a great time.

One of the best tours I’ve ever done - The tour is phenomenal, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better food tour! We’d been in Marrekech a week before the tour and didn’t know about most of the street food we got to try. My only regret was not doing the tour when we first got here (it was booked).

A genuinely good time!! - I thoroughly enjoyed the food tour through the medina - Rashid was an amazing host, he was funny, knowledgable and full of facts along the tour and he understood that I was adventurous and wanted to eat everything possible so he often got me off the menu stuff to try and always with a little extra! The food stops were delicious, intriguing and not the everyday tourist trap food spots (THERE IS NO TAJIN) which made me happy as I had already been in the city a few days and been to and seen the usual. Again, couldn't recommend this tour more - amazing guide, amazing food and amazing stories!
