Not to be missed with an amazing guide

We had a fantastic time wandering around the Medina with Abdel who was SO knowledgeable about the area. The best places to eat and also the best places not to buy from with full explanation of how businesses are trying to gentrify the area which may see traditional artisans disappear from the area. He was wonderfully chatty, didn’t rush us around and talked about the history of the area. I would definitely recommend using his services and intend to rebook so we don’t get lost next time we visit. Wonderful experience. Don’t hesitate to book and ENJOY

Highly recommend

very well done tour of the city, Bahia Palace and the souks. There is a lot of competition with this service and Abdel was a perfect fit for us. The group was small and he kept us moving and shared lots of information. Great way to be introduced to Marrakech

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We saw many places we would not have seen without going on a tour, but it was very personalized and gave us the freedom to pick and choose what we wanted to do in the moment. 10/10

Very insightful tour

Abdel was incredibly informative and gave us a very insightful tour of the old town, we learnt so much around its history and the Morrocan culture. My favourite part of the tour has to be the visit to the herbal shop! We also had a bit of a shopping list to get through around the markets and Abdel helped us out with the bartering side of things and where to find what we were looking for. Would highly recommend this tour at the start of your holiday so you’re able to navigate the old town easier. Thank you Abdel!
