Interesting, fascinating and great value.

As expected…It was hot and there’s a lot of walking. Make sure you dress comfortably and with proper shoes and take water with you. All sensible stuff in any case really.

Excellent and enlightening tour

It was well organised, the guide Hassan was very nice and knowledgeable. He is very bright and told us a lot about the culture and the monuments we saw. There is also a walk through the souks that we would have never bé able to do on our own.
