    An Insightful Medina Tour

    "We had an absolutely fantastic time on our souk tour! Our guide's English was flawless, which made learning about the rich history of Marrakech and the Medina incredibly engaging. They had an impressive depth of knowledge and were so helpful in tailoring the walk, directing us exactly where we wanted to explore. We got so much out of this tour and walked away with great insights we wouldn't have found on our own. Highly recommend!"

    Great tour with Adil

    "Adil was a fantastic tour guide. We sampled a number of Marrakech's local foods and toured a few shops (at our request). Adil was a wealth of information on Marrakech and Morocco. We learned a little history, shopping tips and food recommendations. We enjoyed our tour and would recommend Adil as a tour guide."

    Steward of his country& Window to the city

    "I was fortunate enough to share one afternoon with Redouan in the heart of Marrakesh. Redouan is not only an incredible historian of his city and country, but he was hospitable, friendly, and beyond eager to share. Our afternoon felt less like a 'tour bus excursion' and more like going for an afternoon stroll with a friend. We stopped for coffee, chatted with local merchants and craftsmen, and my desire to partake and experience this culture was beyond satiated. If you are: curious about Morocco, interested in history, don't know where to get started, don't know the language, or just want to experience this incredible city with a local, I could not recommend Redouan enough. His hospitality, experience, and willingness to share mitigated the difficult boundaries of culture shock in a manner closer to a friend. Thank you! (Additionally, Redouan is a great resource for broader Morocco tourism. I did a ten day Morocco trip over five cities and booked this tour on day two. Speaking with Redouan about all the destinations I planned on visiting and asking for recommendations/what to expect etc. was very helpful.)"

    Shopping like a local

    "Redouan was a lovely local host. He was amenable to changing the start and end locations to accommodate our itinerary for the rest of the day, which was hugely appreciated. And he gave us a thorough tour of the souks and artisan workshops - taking us down lanes we would have never discovered on our own, pointing out reputable vendors and introducing us to really talented local artisans and their processes, materials and crafts. He was incredibly knowledgeable and warm. Took the speed slow as we were traveling with my older mother. Would book again and recommend. "

    Our perfect day in Fes

    "Noureddine is a masterful guide to all things Fes. Touring with my three children (aged teens through twenties) Noureddine unlocked this most quintessentially Moroccan city for us. We will never forget our day with him, the labyrinthine alleys of the medina, the views from the ramparts and the artisinal workshops, including the stunning tanneries. He is a kind and gentle soul, the kids were thoroughly engaged and entertained and we had many laughs as well. Just wonderful. "

    Angela about Ouidad

    "Ouidad was an absolute delight. We spent the morning exploring the souks with her and along the way learnt so much about Marrakech, its culture and its people. Ouidad was able to tailor the tour to our interests which made the experience feel personal and memorable. What really set Ouidad apart as a guide was her enthusiasm and warmth- it was like spending time with a friend. Would highly recommend."

    Good experience with Redouan

    "Redouan proved himself to be a knowledgable guide, easy to communicate with and friendly He was flexible with our itinerary. He was recognized by many locals in the souk who stopped to wish him well, in addition, his English was excellent. I would recommend Mr. Redouan to anyone looking for a tour of Marrakech. "

    We had an amazing time on our tour

    "We just came back from a 10 day trip to Morocco. We booked a tour called “Highlights & Hidden Gems of Fes”and spent all day with our guide Noureddine who was amazing. He was so patient with us when we wanted to spend an excessive amount of time shopping after the tannery tour and he was very invested in showing us as much as he could during our time with him. I highly recommend booking this tour while visiting Fes so that you don’t miss any of the highlights!"

    Fabulous souk tour with Ouidad

    "Wow! We had so much fun discovering the souks with Ouidad! We were a group of 4 women and loved Ouidad's stories and sense of humour as she led us through the souks based on the things we had suggested we were interested in seeing. Ouidad was so happy to cater for our needs as we didn't want to be rushed and we had a pregnant lady with us, and we spent much longer than expected with her. Ouidad helped us to barter when we did see something we liked and it is clear she knows the souks like the back of her hand and is a familiar face there. We were worried 2.5 hours would feel like a long time and it turned out it wasn't enough time at all! 100% would recommend and if we come back then we will be sure to look Ouidad up! "
