It was a wonderful experience! Karim provided all the details ahead of time and Hamza was a fantastic guide. Lots of interesting tidbits and made sure we were comfortable the entire day. Would highly recommend. Great way to see all the highlights in a short period of time.

Our day in Morocco could not have gone better. I highly recommend this tour company. They were easy to communicate with and were very flexible about adjusting to our specific requests. Our tour guide, Jasmine, was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and engaging. Five star day!

The day was incredibly well-organized, and we truly enjoyed diving into the culture and history. We especially want to highlight Badr, the guide you arranged for us—he was absolutely excellent. Not only was he incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming, but he was also a wealth of knowledge. He patiently answered all of our questions and made the history come alive. Thank you for putting everything together and making this such a memorable day for us!

Fantastic day trip. Karim customized our experience based on what we wanted to do. We took the 9 AM ferry from Tarifa and caught the 4 PM back. This gave us plenty of time for a van tour of the city, a brunch, a camel ride and shopping. Karim is literally the mayor of Tangier — he knows everyone and was able to get us into private showings for specific shopping experiences. He is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area, which made our excursion both fun and educational. Would recommend the trip led by Karim to any and everyone.

Full day in Tangiers, Morocco! Hakim takes care of the ferry and all aspects of the day! His brother, Hamza, showed us all the sights and discussed the history and cultural aspects. It was fun and we learned a great deal about this beautiful country!

It's a glance at Morrocco. If you have never been to Morrocco you will have an idea of the country. Hamza, our tour guide was great and good to talk to. It's a very adaptable visit, we can stay longer in a place we want or decide at the time what we feel like doing. For example, we could chose between going to a fabric store or to an oil store. We wanted to go to a local restaurant and Hamza, our guide, took us to a restaurant where there were only locals eating. We had great memories of that day.

Having never been to Morocco while in Costa De Sol we HAD to catch the quick ferry over to Tangier. Again not knowing who we were hiring, we felt very fortunate to end up in the hands of Karim, his sister Jasmin, and driver Abdul. At first we thought it was going to be a very rushed day, so my wife changed our return to a later time to do more things. But there was no need. It was a fantastic day, never felt rushed, and we hit all the main attractions, several gorgeus mosques, Nafional Park, Hercules cave, Cape Spartel, camel rides by the sea, a lovely elegant brunch, Casbah market, old Medina. . But we did everything on our agenda and still made our earlier ferry time (even after much shopping and stopping for a relaxing afternoon tea/coffee). JASMIN WAS AWESOME, she was a wealth of knowledge and made us feel very welcome, and accomodating to what WE wanted to see, not just their tour agenda. Of course now we want to return to stay at least a week, and hope to hire them again for more local hook up! So happy with Tangier Patito Tours. The day was a seamless and wonderful experience thanks to them!

We had a wonderful day in Tangiers on this tour, and would highly recommend it!! The tour starts with a ferry trip from Tarifa. This process was very smooth, as the tour emailed us a ferry ticket voucher which was easily accepted and off we went! It’s a large ferry, but despite that it was a bit of a choppy journey of about 45 minutes (so be prepared for that, just in case!) We were met by our guide Lina just outside the ferry terminal exit and taken to our van and driver for the day. We covered the new side of Tangiers first, with stops at several sights and viewing points. This included a stop for a light breakfast with some traditional Moroccan food and drink. Lina had a great recommendation on what to order and we followed it, and it was yummy!! I would ask your guide for what you should try. We opted into doing the camel ride on the beach! It was fun, something we had never experienced! Try it out if you are even a bit adventurous- it was not scary in case you were worried! We then headed over to the old town area, and changed from driving to walking to cover this area. We again saw numerous key sites and walked through the market. Lina asked us what we would want to see in the market and tailored our walking path to see those items only. We ended our tour with another stop for food, which we again followed Lina’s recommendation and were so happy we did as it was delicious and a wonderful end to the tour in Morocco. We then boarded the ferry and returned to Spain; this time the waters were more friendly and it was a smooth crossing! Overall, it was a full day- we left our hotel at 8 and returned at 6. Note that you must arrive at their ferry at least 45 minutes ahead of departure and also that there was a 1 hour time change between Spain and Morocco. I also must highly recommend Lina as a tour guide! She is very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to chat with— all so important when you send a full day together! She also was great at tailoring our tour stops and market visit to our interests. Five stars for Lina! Also, five stars for our key tour contact, Karim. He was very communicative, reaching out several times prior to our trip just to check in with us, which was appreciated! But most of all, he did a wonderful job helping us out when I found I had made a mistake in booking - he went above and beyond to help us make sure our tour happened!! Five stars (okay six stars!!) for Karim!!! Overall, we highly recommend this tour!! It’s the perfect one-day exposure to Morocco and Tangiers, run by an efficient, well prepared, friendly and professional tour operator!!
