Absolutely amazing host - I don't even know where to begin except to highly recommend Perfect Travel Excursions. My expectation was that our driver would simply pick us up and drop us off at the places we had booked, just like what has happened with every other tour operator i have ever booked. However, what we received with our guide Yahya, was the most pleasant and welcomed surprise! Our tour guide Yahya picked us up in the evening for our hotel transfer and was with us for 7 days straight. Once he’d pick us up, he would stay with us until he dropped us back (keeping a safe distance to give us time just as a family but being close enough to help and participate should we need him). He was incredibly kind, knowledgable, patient with us, genuine, and above all, he made our time in Fes the best holiday we have ever had as a family. He showed us hidden gems that we hadn’t even expected, which left us super happy. When we wanted to eat something, he would take us to the best places. Yahya helped up pack in a much as we could within the 7 days he was with us, including 2 days to and back from the Sahara dessert, the blue city, meknes, volubilis and moulay idriss day trip. Quad biking, feeding the monkeys, touring us around Fes. All done within the comfort of his excellent ride which more than comfortably fitted my family of 5. So much so that my 16 year old motion sick child (who vehemently hates car rides) actually asked me if we could just go for a super long ride in Yahya’s car! Anything we wanted to do or were interested in, Yahya went above and beyond to try and arrange it. I cannot begin to express my gratitude towards Yahya for making our time in Morocco such a memorable one. This was our first holiday since 2019 (our last coincidentally being Marrakech!) and it was a much needed break and bonding experience for my family of 5. And yahya helped us make it one which we will never forget! Please, please book with

Unforgettable day in Fès with the only tour guide you’ll ever need! - Mohamed was the absolute best guide we could’ve asked for! So friendly and helpful from the first minute, he made sure to show us Fès in all its beauty, was so patient and fun to have around. It felt like hanging out with a friend, we felt very safe and loved our day with him. We started with our own personal driver who drove us around the outskirts of town with the most amazing viewing points, then we continued our day through the medina. We’ve learnt, seen, experienced and tasted so much on this day, it was easily my favorite day of the entire Morocco trip. We’re leaving Fès not only in love with this city, but also with a new friend. Cannot wait to be back!

Unforgettable tour with Mohammed - Wow, what an amazing trip we had through Fes all thanks to Mohammed! He carried us around the narrow streets with his charm and energy and made us feel so safe, comfortable and welcome. We trusted him to show us what he believed to be the heart of Fes and he successfully did just that. He naturally explained everything so clearly and is a great addition in bargaining with the locals! By the end of the day, we really had a feel for all the beauty Fes has to offer. If you ever travel to this quaint city, choose the inspiring and wonderful Mohammed as a tour guide, you won’t regret it!
