"We had booked the tour "Djemaa El Fna Square Market Tour & Tastings" for the first evening on the day of arrival. It was simply fantastic with Lhoussaine and Kamal, who guided us through the many narrow alleyways around Djemaa El Fna with charm, wit and friendliness. 5 carefully selected restaurants and food stalls gave us a perfect insight into the culinary diversity of Moroccan cuisine. Lhoussaine and Kamal extended the tour by a whole hour because there was simply so much for us to see. Highly recommended! Thank you both for a wonderful evening!

"The tour "A Magical Evening in Marrakech: City Tour" with Elhoussaine was a fantastic experience! After a tour of the main sights of the old town, we ended the evening together with Elhoussaine in a rooftop bar at the Jamaa El Fna, which he had invited us to visit!
Elhoussaine is a charming, very friendly and very knowledgeable guide who is always responsive to the needs and wishes of his guests! He is also a generous and lovable person.
Thank you very much for your great tour and for the time you took for us!

Great walkabout around the souks & madina
"Adil comes as advertised, very knowledgable and friendly. He’s exactly as you would wish a guide to be! I recommend you take a private tour for the ultimate experience! "
"Omar is an exceptional guide- one who you're at ease with immediately.
Even in the busiest parts of the Medina, Omar will take you down alleyways where suddenly you're the only tourist. From sampling dishes the locals eat to the history of the Souks, Omar is the guide you want to be with. I can't recommend him highly enough."
"Ouidad was an amazing tour guide, she did such a great job explaining everything and was extremely authentic. Highly recommend for any type of traveller."
"We had a very interesting and informative tour by Redouan. Thanks to his knowledge and enthusiasm, we got a unique insight into the real Marrakech. He took us to authentic places we would never have found on our own - which made the experience extra special. Definitely highly recommended!"
"Elhoussaine was a great guide and introduction to Marrakesh. He listened to what we wanted and made sure we got the most from our tour.
We were a group of 4 Adults, a 8 year old and a 3 year old and he was really patient with all the requests for stops, shopping, snack breaks etc.
Overall a great tour and a really lovely guide! "

"Adil was a fantastic guide! We did a guided tour through the souks and learned so much! He personalized our tour and even helped with haggling for a rug (quite an awesome experience). He was very attentive and I would highly recommend him early in your trip as he will help with other things you may like to do."
