A great way to visit Tangier as a cruise passenger - Ahmed Jr was our guide and we were picked up from the cruise port. He was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Tangier and truly enjoyed this half day tour.

Friendly tour with interesting highlights - We had scheduled his tour, Flavour of Tangier for the day. We had it scheduled months in advance and customized it to fit our travel schedule and interests. Hamza, "Junior", was our tour guide since Ahmed was recuperating from a medical issue. We were in great hands with Hamza. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He picked us up right at the port and gave us an intro to the history of Tangier and the area. We got into the van and headed onward. He took us to different neighborhoods that were occupied by different countries during WWII and had kept their cultural distinction. USA is called California, which is where the King lives when in town. It is a beautiful home/compound with guards right at the street. Other dignitaries also stayed in California. We stopped and walked around in different areas for photos and more history. Once we had toured around the areas, we went to ride camels (awesome!). We also went to the point in which the Mediterranean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean, (amazing!). We then went to the Casbah, the old town that is walled in. You enter through one area. There were certain guidelines that must be adhered to if you wish to live or work within the Casbah. We enjoyed the beautiful doors and their meanings. We also were intrigued by how the old culture intermingled with the new modern world. We enjoyed the spices and the auction of the meat and seafood, all of the wonderful fashion for various Muslim distinctions as well. We also had time to enjoy an authentic Moroccan lunch. We tasted various different delicious dishes and finished it off with a soothing mint tea, as is custom. All in all, a great day and exactly what we had asked for and then some. A very interesting and fun time! We would definitely recommend Ahmed and Hamza!

Rabie the Best Guide to Tangier - Excellent Guide, we loved Tangier for the special way to tour with Rabie. He is well known in the city and fulfilled every single thing we asked.
It was a very complete tour and always had the best attitude. We even forgot an object in the Transport Van and sent it by parcel to Barcelona.
100% recommended!

A day around Tangiers - A big thanks to Taoumi for arranging a great guide, Rashid and Mohammed our driver.
We felt like we were with friends for the day and Rachid took us to back and favored areas of Tangiers.
Best yet Taoumi is very responsive on email. We highly recommend these guys

Amazing Day - Rachid was an amazing guide! The day we had scheduled ended up being rainy. Rachid revised our day to accommodate our experience. We were able to see and do everything we wanted. Rachid was extremely knowledgeable and we could tell he really enjoyed taking us around throughout his city. Highly recommend!!!

Great day in Tangier with Rachid! - Rachid was our guide for a tour of Tangier that included both driving in the outskirts and walking in the old city and the medina. We were coming by train from Fes and he met us at the train station and got us situated with bag drop off at our hotel before heading out to get a sense of the city from driving above, seeing the coastline, the embassies and Perdicaris park. We then headed into the old city and the medina. Rachid was incredibly knowledgeable and also seemed to know everybody so we would stop at different food stops for just a taste of what was on offer. A few highlights were the visit to the Anglican church, the stop at the community baker/oven, and the lunch at a no name restaurant that was Rachid's choice for "real local cuisine". We were the only tourists there and had an amazing meal of multiple courses of salads, grilled chicken and fish and desserts. Yum! Didn't have to eat the rest of the day! Rachid would have kept going but we finally said goodbye at 6pm. Rachid met up with us the next day to facilitate our getting our ferry tickets and making sure we were all set with taking the ferry to Tarifa. Definitely recommend!

Amazing day trip to Tangier! - Rachid was an amazing tour guide! From meeting us at the ferry port, to returning us to the port, he and our driver, Ahmed, were kind and knowledgeable. Driving us through the city, walking through Perdicaris Park and Cap Spartel, riding camels and touring the historical Kasbah, Rachid made sure we enjoyed everything while giving us a history lesson as well! I would highly recommend visiting Tangier and experiencing this tour...the people of Tangier are warm and welcoming and Rachid and Ahmed are wonderful guides!

Highlights of Tangier tour - Through emails a week in advance, Ahmed organized and ordered ferry tickets from Tarifa for my wife and myself with no money down. We arrived Tangier by ferry at 10am and Ahmed met us at the dock with a Mercedes with his son as driver. We spent two hours driving through the new town and coastline, stopping at various points for views and stories. We we began the walking tour at the Kasbah and gradually went downhill into the Medina. We were not on a shopping trip and Ahmed focused the tour on the culture, economy, traditions and history of Tangier. After four hours, Ahmed let us wander on our own and we met an hour later for a walk back to the ferry. With limited time on a day trip, we skipped lunch and fasted as it was during Ramadan.
Ahmed has been doing tours for four decades and he knows Tangier and all of Morocco. He provides a very informative tour and is a great storyteller. He seems to know everyone in town and is well liked. He does not push you to purchase and tailors the itinerary around what you want and the time you have. I recommend telling him before the tour what you are looking for, if you need lunch break or if you have issues with walking.
We were very satisfied with how our time was spent and highly recommend him to others.
