Visit Marrakech - A beautiful historical visit. The guide Akim explained the history, monuments etc. to us well. He even took me to a jewelry store for my rings. Thanks to him .

Good time - We enjoyed the tour, Mohammed was very friendly and funny. Although the itinerary was different from the one described, it was very informative still.

The best way to experience Marrakesh! The perfect trip with a kind, knowledgeable and friendly local guide. - What a fabulous guide - Friendly, authentic and knowledgeable, sharing all his top tips but also taking care of us along the way- we were able to see parts of the city that we’d never have known about and felt completely safe. Mohammed grew up in Marrakesh and talked through the cultural side of the city which gave us a “local” perspective and interaction rather than an instructional “tour”. There was no pressure selling (and with a guide we were able to be walk through the souls without any hassle). I’d recommend this guide wholeheartedly - he’s the best !

Highly Recommended Tour - Mohammed was absolutely amazing. His English is perfect and he is extremely friendly. In the space of 2 hours you really see what Marrakech has to offer beyond the tourist attractions. He will show you the furnaces that heat the la sagesse, beautiful rooftop views of the centre of the Medina, the apothecary sector, where the leather, rugs and other hand crafted items are made to where they are sold. You're never rushed, you're given chances to take photo memories and you are always in good company! Worth every moment and is recommended above all overs!

Great souk tour - My tour guide Mohammed was very friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was able to take full advantage of the souk but he also showed me the Médina. Being a solo female traveller, Mohammed was very nice enough to also tell me the do’s and don’ts when visiting the Médina which I have uses in my travels to Marrakesh.

Nice trip for a first impression of the medina - Mohammed is really nice and knows the medina very good. The traders stay away when seeing a guide in front of the tourists, that’s an advantage! :-)

Amazing tour of Medina & shopping guide - We had an amazing time during our 3 hour tour. It was nice to have a relaxing shopping experience instead of the hustle & bustle of the Medina souks. We also saw some of the more private shops that we never would have found on our own. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a combination of shopping and even some Marrakech history, as you will get both. And the guide was incredibly funny and personable, it was worth every penny! Thank you for everything, we had the best time!

Don’t expect to see all that the tour offers. Hit and Miss. - The guide was nice and informative, but missed out a couple of the sites on the itinerary. This was a shame as I was expecting to do the itinerary and then had to rearrange my trip schedule to fit in the other sites. Excuses were made as to why we missed out sites, such as they are closed today: which was not true. Another reason was that too much time was spent in one site, which was not true, but also I would expect the guide to be on top of keeping track of time. At the end of the tour we were promised a tea, but then were taken to the ‘chemist’ style shops where we were pushed to buy products. I didn’t expect this part of the tour.

Good intro the souks - An informative, pleasant guide who took us to many workshops we wouldn't have ordinarily seen by ourselves. Could have had some history behind the souks, mosques and palaces etc. It wasnt quite what was advertised as we didnt walk past many of the places listed. Ie Koutoubia mosque, palaces hammams or receive the Moroccan tea. In hindsight many of the places described within the itinerary were too far away to walk to anyway! Ie Jardin majorelle
