Great experience - Excellent visit to the magnificent and lively medina of Fez, with our guide Mohammed Yassin who alone deserves the 5 stars: punctuality, competence, attentiveness, naturalness and sobriety, thoughtfulness and even solicitude, choice of route and restaurant adapted to wishes. A memorable day for the four of us. We highly recommend

All you need to see of Fes medina - Excellent tour. Our guide was super friendly and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend a guided tour of Fez as street are incredibly narrow and confusing, very easy to get lost and harassed by locals who want money for directions.

an awkward tour - a miscommunication between the guide and the agency which led to the delay in the start. the whole tour was rather awkward and had a lot of cells pitches. I did not connect with the guide and the Trojans in the guide did not really handle the feed back very well

Not guided - It was not guided at all. I just walked around with old guy and made me stopped by his friends’ shops.. also made me take photo of several musks even I don’t want to take.. also he hold my arm so many times which is really rude in my country so I was scared. it took 2.5 hours and felt like I was just forced to join old guys’ walking…

Sales tour through the Medina - The tour was generally OK, but it was like a shopping tour. The points in the description were completely ignored. The tour guide was nice, but very interested. I wouldn't book it again.
