Best guide in Morocco I have ever had! - It was a perfect day! It felt as if I had time traveled back to the past. The guided experience she took me to made me feel as if I was in a movie. We explored the old medina that is 12 centuries old, she took me to a high point first where the view of the whole fortress was amazing! After that we explored the Jewish quarter which is 9 centuries old. Although she is not Vegan herself, she is Vegan-conscious and knows that I only eat food and use products that don't contain animals. So that is helpful because she knew I wouldn't like to go to any leatherwork destinations and such. She is very friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and honest. I highly recommend her and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future.
