Abdel was a wonderful and fun guide with tremendous knowledge of Marrakech and very good English! He led us round slowly, in the excruciating heat and made sure we all understood and were ok!

Great city tour

Excellent city tour. Would highly recommend Abdel as your tour guide. His knowledge was great and he showed us places we would never had seen. If you have a spare couple of hours, book this tour.

Great for first time visit and orientation of the souks.

We booked this to help us navigate the souks and see some of the highlights of the Medina on our first morning.. Great guide, very friendly, cost known before tour so no surprises Abdel contacts you day before to confirm meeting place.

The perfect first-day orientation to Marrakech. Abdel is an exceptional guide — deeply knowledgeable about the city’s history, the souks, and the architecture, and brilliant at giving you the context behind what you’re seeing. We left able to navigate the medina on our own and genuinely understanding it. We visited in late June and the pacing, shade, and cool stops kept it comfortable throughout. Can’t recommend him enough.

A great way to start your holiday

We were lucky enough to have a 'personal' tour with Abdel which he tailored to our wishes. He's very knowledgeable, personable and pleasant and took the time to explain everything to us during the tour as well as answering any questions we may have had. Don't hesitate to book with him - a great way to start your holiday in Marrakech!

Amazing tour of the Medina and historical sites.

Abdel was excellent. He showed us around the markets and explained to us the history of the old Mosque Madrasa Ben Youssef. We then visited the secret garden as well and it was a great place to end the tour. Hope to meet Abdel again whenever I come back to Marrakech, he was not only a great tour guide, but very friendly and warm.

Best Walking Tour of the Souks in Marrakech

This was a top notch walking tour of the Souks in Marrakech, about 3 1/2 hours duration with a slow pace and plenty of explanation of the Souks as well as Islamic history and culture. Very informative and our guide Saleem was the best. Learned a lot of history as well as current Moroccan culture. I would recommend 110%.
