A Journey Through Time in Tangier with Karim - My wife and I had the pleasure of exploring Tangier's rich history and vibrant culture with Karim as our guide. We initially booked with a different company, but they connected us with Karim at the last minute due to a scheduling conflict. This turned out to be a fortunate change!
Karim met us promptly at our riad and immediately impressed us with his warm personality and fluent English. He effortlessly navigated us through the labyrinthine alleyways of the Medina, sharing fascinating stories about the city's past and present.
One of the highlights was our visit to the Kasbah Museum, where Karim's in-depth knowledge of Moroccan art and history truly shone. He also took us to a hidden rooftop terrace with breathtaking views of the Strait of Gibraltar.
After working up an appetite, Karim led us to a charming local restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious tagine and mint tea. He even helped us haggle for some beautiful souvenirs at the nearby souk.
Our tour was scheduled for three hours, but Karim graciously extended it to accommodate our leisurely pace. He was patient, attentive, and clearly passionate about sharing his city with us.
I wholeheartedly recommend booking a tour with Karim. You'll not only learn a great deal about Tangier but also create unforgettable memories.

Excellent walking tour! - Excellent tour. Babr was our guide and he showed us all around the old city of Tangiers, with the markets, the medina and the American Legation.
Babr was very knowledgeable and speaks excellent English. Highly recommended tour.

Great tour! - We booked the tour with Anas, but he was not feeling well, so he arranged for Yasmine, a colleague of his, to give us the tour instead. She picked us up from our hotel and gave us a wonderful tour of the Grand Socco, Medina and the Casbah. We became hungry after smelling all the delicious food during the tour, so she suggested a great little restaurant (Restaurant Ba Sidi) for lunch and tea. I wanted to purchase some fresh strawberries and some spices and she was able to help me with that too. This tour lasted much longer than 3 hours, but Yasmine did not rush us and patiently waited for us to finish lunch and some shopping before returning us to our hotel. I highly recommend booking with Anas/Yasmine!

Recommended tour - I really liked the tour. We saw many things and they explained it to us wonderfully. We would repeat again. Tangier is a city that keeps many secrets and it is important that they be explained to you.

Poor - We have done many walking tours in different cities and found this one very poor. Our guide was punctual and polite however his english language was not good enough for us to be able to fully understand everything he was saying and he was unable to fully understand and therefore answer our questions. He did not provide clear explainations of the history of the city and we learnt very little. The tour ended with visits to overpriced shops in the medina.
