Wear good walking shoes...

Wear good walking shoes and bring a fan. It wasn’t clear to us that they pick you up and drop you off at the starting point in a vehicle. On a private tour if you modify the standard itinerary make sure it is communicated to the guide and agreed at the start. Guide was knowledgeable about all the spots we visited. Part of the tour time included time for lunch. We didn’t want to do the souks yet found ourselves in the souks a lot.

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found the guide knowledgeable and appreciated the insights provided throughout the tour. We also appreciate your helpful suggestions regarding communication about itinerary adjustments and tour expectations. We’re sorry that some aspects of the experience, particularly the time spent in the souks and the itinerary alignment with your preferences, did not fully meet your expectations. Your feedback is valuable and helps us continue improving our experiences for future guests. Best regards. Marrakech Guided Experience. Mohamed

Waiting for fair refund

We had booked a private tour with pick up from the hotel... at the last minute we were notified that the guide in Italian was ill and they replaced it with a group tour with a promise of remorse of the price difference... it's been more than a week and still nothing.

Operator response

Grazie per il vostro feedback e ci scusiamo sinceramente per l’inconveniente. Stiamo verificando immediatamente la situazione del rimborso relativo al vostro tour privato a Marrakech e vi contatteremo al più presto. Best regards. Marrakech Guided Experience. Mohamed.

Our guided day tour with...

Our guided day tour with Ousamma was exactly what we wanted. A friendly guide taking us through a mix of chaos and tranquility in Marrakech. We went through the market exploring many of the halls that we may not have if we were on our own. When it came time to shopping we were directed to the local artisans rather than the imported goods. All-in-all a great day

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted that Ousamma guided you through both the vibrant energy and peaceful corners of your guided souk adventure. Discovering artisan workshops and authentic local craftsmanship is exactly what makes the experience special. We’re so happy you had a great day! Best regards. Marrakech Guided Experience. Mohamed.
