Morad is a 'Top Tour Guide' who has been guiding and organizing tours in and around Marrakech for 12 years. He studied in France and lived there for 6 years. His French skills are therefore very good. He is very knowledgeable, knows the souk like the back of his hand and is well connected. It was a lot of fun walking around the city with him. We visited some great shops and places - felt very comfortable and received many other great travel tips from him!
I would highly recommend Momed, our guide. He was pleasant and gave good advice. He gave us some great anecdotes. Thanks to him and good luck.
