A fantastic tour with a friendly guide - Idriss is very friendly guide. He is very knowledgeable and he shared a lot of interesting information about the medina. The places he took us to (incl those in the itinerary and extra places that we would like to visit such as carpet shops, restaurant recommendation) were all worth going. As he said, he wouldn’t take us to bad places! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who would like to enjoy a half day tour in the medina with a knowledgeable and friendly guide

A perfect visit for our day of arrival in Fez - We spent almost 4 hours with Driss and loved everything! Thanks to him we saw the essentials, met passionate and exciting people and at the end of our visit he took us to a very good restaurant with a pretty terrace. And thank you for the recommendation of the other restaurant Driss, we were amazed! 😍

Best tour guide for Fez medina - Great visit with Idriss who showed us the medina of Fez. As he grew up in the city, he has lots of knowledge, knows the people and vendors, and shows you the highlights during a 3 hour tour. He picked us up at the riad in the morning. Idriss speaks perfect English and French and is very friendly. I highly recommend you book him to visit the medina the firts time. Well worth the time and money. Thanks again Idriss.

Great experience with a great guide! - We had a really great tour with an really good guide, Idriss! He showed us a lot of hidden gems of the medina but also the highlights, such as the tannery and madrassa. He asked several times if we wanted to see or do something, so he adjust his plan to yours. Idriss speaks very good English and knew a lot. We would definitely recommend him as a guide!

An exceptional moment - Excellent tour in the medina with great flexibility from our super guide: Ba Driss who knows Fes and the Fassis like the back of his hand. We were really able to see everything we wanted. This allowed us to visit historic places and discover other artisans as well. Thank you a thousand times for everything.

The highlight of our trip. - Idriss was a fantastic local guide. From Fes, his knowledge of the area, its architecture and its history were fantastic. He was very personable, and had answers to all of our questions. He was very patient as we took our time exploring the bustling medina, the beautiful Al-Attarine madrasa, the impressive tanneries, and lots more!

Fantastic tour of Fes - We had a really great time exploring the old medina with Idriss. He is a very kind and knowledgable man who speaks many languages and was able to explain lots about the local history to us. He did not try to sell us anything and waited patiently whilst we looked around. Would really recommend taking a tour with him - it enhanced our experience of Fes. Thank you Idriss for a wonderful day!

One Could Not Wish For A Better Guide - Today we had the pleasure of having Idris as our guide around Fes, and I mean pleasure. He is such an intelligent, well informed, gentle, urbane man with a wealth of knowledge about the history of the country, its culture, religions, customs and architecture. It was fascinating to hear him talk on a wealth of topics. Unlike many guides, he did not steer us into shops where we were pressured to buy. Instead he proffered suggestions as to the type of interests we may wish to pursue. We were not rushed, instead we had a thoroughly enjoyable day gaining an insight inside both past and present Fes. We would thoroughly recommend Idris as a guide. Dianne Bendall on behalf of a group of four travellers.

Fantastic Fes Guided Tour - Walking the Medinas from the 9th and 14th centuries with tour guide Idriss is a wonderful experience. He is extremely knowledgeable about culture, history and tidbits of information. His gentle, friendly style is welcoming. Passersby of stop to greet him - he is well known and respected throughout Fes. We enjoyed his behind the scene access to some off track places. Yes - you can explore Fes on your own but time with Idriss adds meaning and defintion to your experience.
