A perfect introduction to...

A perfect introduction to Marrakech. This was our first full day in the city and this was an excellent way to view the most spectacular gardens and become familiar with the city. Our guide was very knowledgeable regarding history, gardens/plants and cultural customs.

High quality private tour

A great visit with Abdelfatah. Very nice to be driven to different points of Marrakech with very interesting comments from the guide. Thanks in particular for the small negotiation at the souk. Naana will always be remembered.

Operator response

La petite négociation au souk fait partie intégrante de l’expérience et reflète parfaitement la culture marocaine. Nous sommes très heureux que ce moment vous ait plu et qu’il reste un joli souvenir. Ce fut un vrai plaisir de vous accompagner à Marrakech. Au plaisir de vous revoir pour d’autres découvertes !

Great tour and very informative.

This is a great way to get to know the city at the start of your visit. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgable about the places visited and the history of Marrakesh, apologies we can't remember his name. The gardens, you have to purchase your ticket in advance on-line, easy to do and we booked ours for 9-30 as the tour starts at 9 and this is the first place you visit, palace and souk are great places to visit and this trip allows you to get the lay of the land before you go exploring on your own, highly recommend.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and found it a great way to discover Marrakech. Your guide will be delighted to hear your feedback. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again soon!

to get to the point!

Practical visit to get to the essentials! Information guide. You must know that you pay in addition to the price of the visit the entrances to the gardens and palaces, and that you must book in advance otherwise there is possibly no more room! We wanted to book (two days in advance) at the Jardin Majorelle but unfortunately there was no room. Our guide, by sms, knew how to guide us to buy tickets in other interesting gardens. In total, we visited with our guide the Bahia Palace, the secret gardens, and the souk.

Operator response

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour détaillé ! Nous sommes ravis que la visite vous ait permis de découvrir l’essentiel de Marrakech avec un guide informatif à vos côtés. Effectivement, certaines entrées comme celles des jardins ou palais ne sont pas incluses dans le prix de la visite, et la réservation en avance est fortement conseillée, notamment pour des lieux très prisés comme le Jardin Majorelle. Nous sommes heureux d’apprendre que votre guide a pu vous orienter efficacement pour profiter d’autres sites tout aussi magnifiques comme le Palais Bahia, les Jardins Secrets et le souk. Au plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau pour explorer encore plus de trésors de Marrakech !

Great cultural tour of the city

This was exactly the guided tour we were looking for. Abdelfatah was knowledgeable and courteous but also had a great sense of humour. The sites visited were ideal and we got a good sense of the history and culture of Marrakech. Highly recommended. Mohammed was also a prompt and patient chauffeur.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that the tour met your expectations and that Abdelfatah made it both informative and enjoyable with his knowledge and sense of humor. We're also glad Mohammed could make your experience smooth and comfortable. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back to Marrakech again someday!

Fascinating insight into past history of Marakesh

Cancelled without notifying us but guide still turned up and gave us an amazing tour - they did not want us to be let down - so guide Abdelfatah Nanaa joined us with driver Aziz and showed us round the Bahia Palace followed by the amazing Majorelle gardens and finishing with a tour of the Medina - so pleased the local organisers did not want us let down by the cancellation - highly recommended

Operator response

However, we are delighted to hear that Abdelfatah and Aziz were able to step in and ensure you still had an amazing tour. Their dedication to making your experience memorable truly reflects our commitment to our guests. We’re thrilled you enjoyed the Bahia Palace, Majorelle Gardens, and the Medina – such iconic and beautiful locations! Thank you for your kind words and for recommending us.

Beautiful excursion and guide

This private tour with driver and guide excited and delighted us. From the start and before leaving the communication was very effective. We had a little constraint and they were able to adapt to our request. Our guide Abeldfata has been amazingly professional and courteous and considerate. He gave us all the necessary information during the visits with humor and sympathy. We recommend this very interesting and practical excursion. My advice ++: book very quickly the Jardin Majorelle (on the official online site) to be sure of this with your date and t timing of excursion.

Operator response

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour chaleureux et détaillé. Nous sommes ravis que cette visite privée ait répondu à vos attentes et que vous en gardiez un excellent souvenir. Nous transmettrons vos compliments à Abdelfattah, qui sera très heureux d'apprendre qu'il a contribué à rendre votre expérience mémorable grâce à son professionnalisme, sa courtoisie et son sens de l'humour. Nous vous remercions également pour votre précieux conseil concernant la réservation du Jardin Majorelle, une étape incontournable qui mérite effectivement d’être planifiée à l’avance. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau pour de nouvelles découvertes
