We booked this tour with guide Zack through Withlocals, assuming that using a well-known platform would guarantee a reliable and safe experience. Unfortunately, that was not the case at all. At first, the tour seemed interesting, as he explained a few things while walking through the souk. However, he kept repeating the same information over and over again, with very little depth or real insight. At the Ben Youssef Madrasa, he left us alone for 30 minutes, effectively shortening the guided tour while we had paid for a full visit. Throughout most of the tour he was constantly on his phone, which felt unprofessional at the time and later became suspicious. The worst part was the final stop at a herbal shop that he presented as “the only trustworthy place in Marrakech” to buy these products. Trusting both the guide and the platform, we believed him. In reality, this turned out to be a classic tourist scam. While we were inside for over half an hour, he stayed outside on his phone. Afterwards we discovered that these herbal shop visits are a very common scheme targeting tourists, with overpriced and questionable products. We chose this tour because it was offered through Withlocals and appeared safe and vetted. Instead, we felt misled and taken advantage of. We cannot recommend this guide.
Muchas gracias por estas informaciones y creo que estás equivocado en la persona que te hice la visita guida porque yo en esta fecha del 19/02/2026 no estaba en Marrakesh, mira las fotos que tengo en esta cuenta y dime si soy yo o no o publica alguna foto mía que sacaste durante nuestra visita , además no me han llegado reservaciones en este mes de Febrero en esta plataforma lo he tenido cerrado 🔒, gracias 😇 .
The guide always adapted to our needs, buy perfumes, clothes.. He was able to answer all the questions we asked him... It is really worth this tour to discover the not so tourist souk.
An enriching experience with a more than friendly guide with extensive knowledge and good Service at a logical price. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to visit Morocco in a safe and pleasant way.
Exceptional Zack. Attentive, friendly, the tour of Marrakech has been a real pleasure. I would recommend it 100% without hesitation.
Excellent tour. Super complete and the guide we got was a crack! Zakaria Took us to the best places and recommended great things! Super recommended with a Berber! Hug!
Zakaria has guided us around Marrakech and it was a real luxury to have him as our guide! He has transmitted the rich culture of the country with a passion worth highlighting, showing us the key aspects to be able to enter this wonderful city and know all its histories and mysteries.
Very friendly guide and available to clarify all our curiosities. Very good mastery of the castle. He went to pick us up at the restaurant at the start of the tour, no more could be requested.
