If I could give 6 stars I would! Our guide was amazing! Knowledgeable, interesting, funny and passionate about his city and culture. Do this trip! You won't regret it!!
We had the perfect introduction to Marrakech on our tour with Rachid.He is extremely knowledgeable and well experienced. He patiently explained the history of the monuments interspersed with bits of Moroccan culture thus making it very interesting. Highly recommend him as a guide to give a wonderful glimpse to the city of Marrakech.
Rachid provided excellent context regarding the important and interesting sites in the old medina of Marrakech. The pace proficiency of English made the experience better than expected. Further, he was flexible in adding a street food stop (kefta) and beverage to rehydrate. This was an excellent experience!!
