Great way to get a small... - Great way to get a small taste of Morocco! Our Malaga tour guide, Mohamed, was AMAZING!!!! This tour was the 2nd tour with him as the guide and he went above and beyond on everything! From getting us to the port on time, to getting the best seats inside the ferry, breakfast, etc. We truly we treated like VIPs the entire day. Having to get throw customs cn be troublesome but Mohamed took care of everything. Since he already knew us from a previous tour, he communicated our needs and likes to the guide in Morocco ahead of time. The local guide was excellent also. Very knowledgeable and friendly. We had the most wonderful fish meal there too. We travel frequently and only book private tours. Our experience with Mohamed and this tour company has been the best! They really want to make sure you are happy comfortable and you enjoy the tour. We will miss having them on our next vacations. The bests tours we have had! PS. I recommend that people take some motion sickness meds prior to getting on the ferry. On the way back a lot of people got sick due to rough weather but we were fine thanks to Dramamine. The Ferry is very nice. This is a safe trip for families and single people.

Fabulous experience! - We can’t say enough good things about our experience with our day trip to Tangier. We were met at the ferry station and treated like VIPs for the journey to Tangier. Upon arrival, we were met by our guide at the ferry station and taken by van to see all of the sights of the city. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about Moroccan history - we learned so much about the area that we didn’t know/realize. Tangier is a beautiful, vibrant city and we enjoyed every moment - it was definitely the highlight of our vacation. We highly recommend this incredible experience.

Memories made in Morocco! - After a super-early morning pickup in Malaga, we took a comfortable ride in a roomy van to the Tarifa port and across to Tangiers by ferry. Mohammed was a master at beating the transportation lines, and we were met by Tommy, who gave us a beautiful tour - including camel riding, Hercules caves, sight-seeing, and shopping / dining in the Old Town. Lunch (not included) was in a beautiful restaurant serving traditional Moroccan cuisine. We did have the opportunity to visit a rug / jewlelry seller in the Old Town, and he graciously showed us his wares, even though we were not interested in buying. Tommy found spots of interest for each of us along the way. The trip was a fantastic way to get a taste of Morocco in a short amount of time. Highly recommend!

Moroccan Experience - Our 14 hr day trip to Morocco was fabulous. Our driver, Pepe, was very professional and knowledgeable and attended to our every need. He got us on and off ferry and through customs seamlessly. Our local guide was also wonderful and very Knowledgeable. He made the history of Morocco come to life with interesting stories and commentary. Would highly recommend if you just have time for a day trip.

A highly recommended and safe tour that was unforgettable! - I took my wife and three daughters, 15, 13, and 11yo. I was initially concerned about safety and frankly as I've heard from others that Moroccan culture can be overly aggressive. My concerns couldn't have been more wrong. The place and people and food was absolutely remarkable! I booked a small group rate but in the end I had to pay for a private tour because there wasn't others that could join. It was worth every euro and I'm so glad that I had the flexibility with guides that were extremely knowledgeable yet willing to spend more time helping us immerse into the culture. Eduardo, our driver in Spain safely brought us from Malaga across the ferry into Morocco and back when the time came. He was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about Spanish history. In Morocco, we were met by our guide Taumi, a native of Tangier, who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour progressed at our pace and was tailored to highlight spending time immersed in the culture rather than just observing sites with large groups of tourists. This trip was one of our family's highlights as we toured Spain and I highly recommend Eduardo and Taumi when you book it! I tipped them on top of the fee as the service was that great!!

Tangier’s Best Tour - This tour given by Ahmed Taoumi was one of the best we have ever had! He was on time to meet us at the port in Tangier and from that point it was one spectacular view after another! His knowledge of his home, born and raised, was superb! it was just my husband and I so the tour felt tailor made. The lunch we had at a fantastic local restaurant, Villa Al Achab Iberia was fantastic! We would do the whole tour all over again! Thanks for making our day in Morocco memorable!

Well taken care of - We did the private option for just me and my husband. Pepe was our driver, he picked us up at our hotel and drove us 2 hours to the port. He was friendly and answered questions along the drive. We arrived to the port where Pepe provided breakfast to us, and took care of customs, then onto the ferry with Pepe. Upon arrival in Tangier, Pepe took us to Tommy, our guide in Tangier. We had a perfect day with Tommy, he was very informative, patient and kind. He showed us the various areas of Tangier via a van ride, and where the two oceans meet. Then camel rides, a visit to the caves, the Kasbah, the village, more history, a very good traditional lunch and a little shopping. Tommy took us back to the port to meet again with Pepe for the ferry ride back to the Tarifa Port. A long day that went by fast, we enjoyed the day very much, and really felt lucky with Pepe and Tommy. They treated us like VIP’s, and would give 10 stars if we could, we were well taken care of. Thank you!

Happy in Tangiers - From our very attentive driver Eduardo that picked us up to our wonderful knowledgeable guide Tony in Tangiers, it was a very pleasant experience. Everything went exactly as it was in the description of the tour. i’d have to say the camel ride was one of the highlights along with our delicious authentic Moroccan dinner. I highly recommend this tour.

An Unforgettable Experience - Mohammed, Johanna, Tomoui and the rest of the tour company help to make an unforgettable experience for my wife and I, traveling from the United States. From pickup to drop off they were there to make the tour, trip and travel between Morocco and Spain flawless and allow to just enjoy our time. Mohammed was extremely prompt and professional, Johanna was an absolute pleasure to talk to and Tomoui was passionate about the culture of Morocco. Everyone made us feel like we were VIPs. Additional they were able to help navigate the Old Medina and find the perfect textiles and jewelry. We plan on using them again for future and will 100% recommend to friends.
