This was a great itinerary. We covered all the experiences we wanted to explore. We had a great guide in El Ghouch Ahmed. He was very knowledgeable and professional but also warm. I would request him on another tour. The driver was great as well. Good sense of humor. Highlights were camel ride, caves and old town as well as other parts of Tangiers. This tour was the highlight of our trip.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Ahmed and your private driver. It was a pleasure showing you the hidden gems of Tangier, hope to see you again soon!
Said was an absolutely amazing guide in Tangier! Managing a group of 20 people is not easy, but he handled everything with incredible professionalism, positivity, and patience. He was always organized, attentive, and smiling, making sure everyone felt comfortable and enjoyed the experience. His energy and enthusiasm made the trip even more special for our whole group. Thank you, Said, for making our time in Tangier unforgettable. We highly recommend him!
Hello Dear guest! Thank you so much for your review, so glad to know you and your group have enjoyed the tour welcome to Tangier and Morocco anytime!
Said was our favourite guide of our 2 week Western Mediterranean cruise. Tangier was an awesome city to explore for the day and Said listened to our interests and took us to the best spots to explore, sightsee, delicious lunch and shopping before being returned to our cruise ship just in time! He was also incredibly well read and knew history, culture and had great stories to share. We went to an artisan collective and bought a rug, table cloths, a lamp, and a tea set. All so beautiful and top quality. The shop owner agreed to send us some of the items to save our suitcases weight. Later in Canada when only the rug arrived (we were expecting a lamp too) we were frustrated and then after reviewing the receipt we saw the lamp wasn’t listed we were surprised and sad. We messaged Said and he contacted the store owner and incredibly advocated for us and explained the misunderstanding and a few weeks later the lamp arrived at our home no charge! Try doing that in the USA or Canada!!! Note to tourists- package deals of multi items are desired by stores, everything happens so fast make sure the agreement is clear, written down and sign the back of the rug. This time it worked out for us naive tourists only because Said! Said we send prayers to you and your family. Thanks again. So much respect for the Moroccan people.

We were apprehensive traveling for our first time to Tangier, but but our guide Saiïd met us at the ferry with a big smile, we got in a nice air conditioned van with professional driver, and off we went to see the sights. His vast knowledge of the culture was very interesting. His studies of the arts was informative, and his personal connections to people and places we visited made us feel like a local. The day was worth every penny!
Thank you so much for a great review! Wish you all the best in life..
Our group of 4 couples booked a private tour with Said in Tangier. We absolutely loved it! Said was so organized and thoughtful with the order we did things in so we could avoid the crowds. He was very knowledgeable about the area and just fun! We checked off a lot of our bucket list items and our tour ended with the best Camel ride that we will never forget! I would give him 10 stars if I could!
