You must confirm the language spoken by the guests. Some didn't speak much English and that made it difficult for everyone to understand. This was more of an accompanied exposure. This was not a tour filled with historical information.
We booked a private tour but it was actually a group tour. Only 1 other guest in van but we met another group for tour of Asilah. That portion of tour felt rushed but our guide was friendly. Our driver was very nice but not a guide. We got minimal information and no history of what we were seeing. Hercules cave was very disappointing, not as shown.
We had a pleasant day today with our driver Hamza. He picked us up on time and was very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, we had some bad luck with the weather and it rained several times. But at the excursion points it stopped as ordered. In Assilah we were guided by a guide who showed us the little medina. The camel ride was funny. In Tangier, Hamza gave us a really great tour guide. He showed us many interesting and beautiful things. The communication in English was great. For us it was the first time in Morocco but certainly not the last time.
Vielen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Rückmeldung! Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Sie einen angenehmen Tag mit Hamza hatten und dass er pünktlich, freundlich und zuvorkommend war. Es ist auch schön zu wissen, dass das Wetter an den Ausflugspunkten mitgespielt hat und Sie trotz des Regens eine tolle Zeit hatten. Es freut uns, dass Ihnen die Führung in Assilah und der Kamelritt Spaß gemacht haben. Wir sind begeistert, dass Hamza Ihnen einen großartigen Tourguide in Tangier vermittelt hat, der Ihnen viele interessante und schöne Dinge zeigen konnte. Vielen Dank für Ihre Empfehlung, und wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder in Marokko begrüßen zu dürfen!
There were 7 of us in the group of family and friends, all 60+, and this tour was arranged hastily after a change of itinerary on our cruise. We were met by Nizar who was both our driver and guide. He was extremely pleasant and attentive and allowed us to tailor our tour to our preferences. He first took us to Cap Spartel past various views and sights which he explained as we went. We went past one of the King of Morocco’s palaces and views of the old town and new. After a brief stop at a little market we went on to a camel ride along a beach which was great fun. We then went on to the Hercules Caves. Again a nice little market and cafe but the caves themselves a little disappointing. From there we drove on to Assilah were Nizar took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch. After lunch Nizar introduced us to our guide for the Medina, who gave us a great history and tour. Unfortunately it was Friday prayer day so a lot of the shops were closed. However, the views of the coast were wonderful. Nizar then took us back to the port with a stop or two for photos. A great day with an excellent guide in a very comfortable vehicle. Well worth every penny!
Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that you and your family had a wonderful day with Nizar as your guide and driver. It’s fantastic that he was able to tailor the tour to your preferences and provide insightful explanations along the way. We’re glad you enjoyed the camel ride and the beautiful sights, even if the Hercules Caves didn’t quite meet your expectations. It’s great to know that you appreciated the lunch and the guided tour of the Medina, despite the Friday prayer day. Thank you for highlighting the comfort of the vehicle and the overall experience. We truly value your feedback and hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future!
Very good experience the full tour, the cave of Hercules Cap the camels, the driver Zak and the guide in Asilah all very correct. Thank you.
¡Muchas gracias por tu comentario! Nos alegra saber que tuviste una experiencia tan positiva en el tour, disfrutando de la cueva de Hércules, Cap Spartel y el paseo en camello. Es genial saber que Zak y el guía en Asilah contribuyeron a que todo fuera correcto. Agradecemos tu apoyo y esperamos verte de nuevo en futuras aventuras. ¡Gracias!
Excellent tour with Hamza; with great communication skills and knowledge of the itinerary we visited. Safe and reliable driving, on time and very professional & courteous. Would definitely recommend !!
Stay away. Basically our guide was just a taxi driver. Offered No information about sites. Dropped us off at locations and passed us off on his cohorts for more tips. At the end of the tour which was 1 1/2 hours shorter than advertised. His partners were waiting and demanding more tips. Extremely aggressive. Couldn’t wait to get back to the Ferry and go back to Spain.
The tour is worthwhile and the attention of both Youssef (our driver) and Asis (our guide in Asilah) were outstanding!!!
Wonderful experience with this agency, private transports, great friendly drivers, that make you feel super comfortable, visits with guides also very well, punctual, polite, fun... I only have words of thanks for these three wonderful days in Tanger, Chefchaouen, Assilah and Tetouan. Without a doubt, if we return to Morocco we will contact you.. thank you and more thank you!!

This was a very professional and informative tour. Abdul, our driver was experienced and so kind. He kept us on schedule and shared lots of information about the sites we visited. We felt pampered the whole day. Aziz, our guide in Asilah was also incredibly knowledgeable and so sweet. He was able to speak to us in English and our tour matws who from Spain. They both were so helpful. I highly recommend!
