Book your guide with Adil!

We had a wonderful experience with Adil in Fes. He is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and speaks excellent English. Throughout the tour, he explained the history, culture, architecture, and daily life of the Medina in a very clear and interesting way. What impressed us most was his patience and honesty. He never rushed us and was always happy to answer our questions. Thanks to him, we were able to discover many hidden corners of the old city and gain a much deeper understanding of Moroccan culture. Adil is also very caring and made sure our family was comfortable and safe during the entire visit. His recommendations for local crafts, food, and attractions were excellent. If you are visiting Fes and want an authentic and enjoyable experience, I highly recommend Adil as your guide. He truly made our trip memorable. Thank you, Adil! — Lili and Family from Australia

Adil was a great guide!

We had Adil for our 9am, he was amazing at showing us all the local areas. We have done tours in the past where the guides lead us to specific stores and urge us to buy stuff so they get commission from the stores, but Adil didn’t do any of that and all while we were shopping he waited patiently for us to finish. Everything was explained very well and clearly, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour!

The Value of a Guide Who Calls the Medina Home

Our half-day walking tour of Fes with Adil was one of the highlights of our visit. Born and raised in the Medina, Adil’s lifelong connection to the city gave us an authentic perspective that we never could have experienced on our own. In addition to the major sights, he took us to hidden corners of the Medina and even welcomed us into his family’s beautiful four-story traditional dar. That personal touch made the tour especially memorable. Adil was also incredibly helpful when shopping, assisting with negotiations for leather goods and scarves and even verifying that some mosaic and ceramic pieces we had purchased the day before came from a reputable artisan shop. The Medina can be overwhelming to navigate, but exploring it with someone who knows it so intimately made all the difference. Adil’s knowledge, generosity, and genuine care for his guests made this an outstanding experience. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a deeper and more authentic understanding of Fes.

Excellent Fez tour

Fantastic and stress-free tour with Adil! If you are looking for a guide in Fez, look no further than Adil. He is extremely kind, patient, and knowledgeable, taking all the time we needed to thoroughly explain the history of the Medina. A huge plus was our shopping experience. While he did guide us to some great local shops to show us the traditional crafts, he never once forced us or pressured us into buying anything. It made the whole day incredibly relaxed and enjoyable. Thank you, Adil, for a memorable day!

Amazing tour with Adil!

We really enjoyed the walking tour. It was informative, engaging, and gave us a great understanding of the area and its history. The guide was knowledgeable and paced the tour well. We especially appreciated how accommodating they were to a friend in our group who wasn't feeling well, making sure they were comfortable throughout. Their kindness and consideration made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend Adil!!

A great guide to show us around the medina

Adil showed us around the medina and tailored the walk to suit me and my younger daughter. He is incredibly knowledgeable and taught us so much about the rich history. Stops are selective based on quality and authentic products as it can be overwhelming otherwise. Huge thanks to Adil who made this a memor experience and I look forward to visiting again! Highly recommend to all.

A well-worth it tour with Yasin

My tour guide was Yasin, he was very nice and informative! As a young woman solo travelling, I felt very safe in this beautiful city. I saw many historic sites, both spiritual, cultural, and artistic. I learned a lot, and the conversation was pleasant. Yasin also recommended some great food options to me. I also booked very last minute, and the price was very reasonable; ~$40 USD to book the day before. Definitely worth it:)

Best private tour

Best private tour i have ever done. Adil was a great guide. He was born and raised in the medina and provided great context and insight into the historic medina. No BS or taking me to vendor friends to buy things was a major plus.
