Amazing! - This was the most spectacular tour! Food was amazing! And Mohammed was knowledgeable and kind. I heard he did Casablanca food tours and wished I'd signed up for that too!. If you love food and it's cultural role, don't hesitate!

Comfortable and very rewarding tour of various neighbourhoods and eateries - I took my group of 11 university students and this was a great experience! It lasted almost five hours but was a well-paced stroll with many stops, and the students enjoyed the food. Our guide Ibrahime was very knowledgeable about local history and architecture, and also very considerate of special requests I had to make for the tour. I think this could be a great experience for all sorts of travel groups, including families, groups of friends, or student groups!

You Must Do this Food Tour! - Spent a fantastic evening with Hicham tonight exploring the sights, sounds, and flavours of the Medina. We had a lot of fun navigating the narrow streets, busy hustle and bustle of the markets. We compared some of the food such as the pancakes, fried potato and sweets to Indian offerings; and I got to add Harissa hot sauce to everything :). Hicham took us a wonderful restaurant to enjoy delicious couscous and tagine. He is a pleasant, kind, patient and generous guide; I am so glad we got to spend time with him in this beautiful city. This is the best way to see the Medina.

Tasty tour with loads of history - Loved our tour with Mohammad. He is very knowledgeable about the Medina, and Moroccan history. We visited during Ramadan, and he kindly explained from a lot of different view points. The food stalls were excellent and so fun to see the variety of traditional foods. The dinner was excellent and included a variety of dishes, fish, chicken and beef. The tour ended with tea, dessert and a view of the canal. Excellent day.

Great, memorable evening - Mohammed was great! Great variety visiting 8 stalls. Restaurant had great variety too with 3 tajine and 2 couscous dishes and lots of sides. Had been warned not to eat street food but ate it all with no problems! Finished evening with coffee by river and then he helped us get a cab! Mohamed was knowledgeable and easy to talk to about all sorts of things. Worth every dirham! Highly recommend.. What a lovely evening!!!
