Best tour with Jasmine

Jasmine guided around the Kasbah & Medina Souks for 3hrs. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history and politics of Tangiers. Her tour was excellent. 10/10

Awesome Tangier!

Our tour guide, Majid, made our walking tour memorable.. from prehistoric facts about tangier, colonialisation to the different areas in tangier symbolizing the different nations that occupied the area. I was in awe when I heard all the facts! An ancient place with so much history to share. Thank you, Majid!

Excellent Guide (Majid) and 3 hour excursion

I booked this tour for my wife and 3 adult children as our cruise was calling at Tangier and none of the cruise line tours were atttactive due to content and price. Communication pre-tour was good and meeting point was agreed within minutes walk of the cruise terminal. Our guide was easy to find as he had a board clearly displaying my name. Although it was booked as a 3-hour walking tour he led us to a taxi, large enough for all of us, to take us to the high point of the Alcázar to start the walking tour from there because of the heat. This was complementary. Our guide was very knowledgeable, as you would expect, and explained the history of Morocco in general and Tangier in particular. He then led us on an excellent tour including a brief refreshment stop which was included. He was flexible on showing us anything we wanted to see and didn’t just lead us to stores with commission for him. The tour ended a short easy walk from the cruise terminal. I strongly recommend this tour (our guide was Majid) to anyone visiting Tangier.

A Perfect Introduction to Tangier

This tour was the perfect introduction to Tangier. A friend and I booked the tour a few weeks in advance, and the owner/operator, Karim, texted me almost immediately to confirm everything. Communication before the tour was excellent. We were asked if we'd be open to sharing our private tour with two other travelers, making us a group of four. We were happy to say yes, and it ended up making the experience even more fun. Our guide, Jasmine, was absolutely wonderful. She was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. Rather than feeling like we were being led through a checklist of sights, it felt like we were exploring the city with a friend who knew every hidden street, every story, and all the right people. Not to mention as a follow woman, seeing the city from that perspective was just incredible. We wandered through the Medina to the Kasbah, strolled down quiet streets lined with beautiful architecture, met some memorable locals, browsed bustling markets (the olive displays alone are worth seeing!), admired the exteriors of several stunning mosques, and visited a historic synagogue. Learning that it's lovingly maintained despite Tangier's Jewish community now numbering fewer than 20 people was a moving example of Morocco's respect for people of all faiths. Jasmine was also incredibly generous throughout the tour. I won't spoil the surprises for future guests, but everything she shared with us was delicious and thoughtfully chosen. By the end of the experience, I felt like I had gained much more than an overview of the city. I came away with a genuine appreciation for Tangier, its history, and the warmth of its people. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tangier, especially if it's your first time.

Amazing Private Tour of Tangier Old Town!!

We booked a tour with Majid and he was a wonderful guide, who was passionate and incredibly knowledgable about Tangier. My wife and I booked this at the very last minute and the company were incredibly flexible and even changed the time to suit us as we had a slight change of plans. Majid looked after us well, gave us amazing insights into Tangier's history, and even shared personal stories which made the whole tour seem so much more authentic. The tour was incredibly good value for money, and we spent a lot longer than originally planned with him and he was happy to do this with no concerns about rushing us. The tour group was just my wife and I, and so it was very personal and special experience. Tangier old town is an amazing unique place with a vibrant atmosphere and Majid brought it alive perfectly, we will make sure to book him again when we bring our daughter next time around. Thank you Majid and Tangier Patito Tours. Paul & Teresa

Extremely Trustworthy and Customer Centric

This tour agency is family run by Karim and his family. Prior to the tour, Karim communicated all the details the day before, so we were clear and there was no guessing. Majid, our tour guide, was promptly at our guest house at 10 min before the tour start time. He was extremely knowledgeable and took us through the old town while sharing nuggets from the history of Tangiers. His english was impeccable. When we were overcharged by a vendor while on our tour, Karim took it personally and stepped in to provide us with a cash refund out of pocket, and insisted he would take the merchandise back to the vendor himself. Ive never encountered this level of customer centricity in any tour anywhere. I will hopefullu return to Tangiers soon, and when I do, I hope to deal only with Karim.

Tour of Kasbah and Medina of Tangier

We were staying near the train station but wanted a chance to visit the Kasbah area so this tour was perfect. Our guide Majid was very communicative prior to our meeting time and picked us up at our hotel. We drove to the Kasbah and learned so much about the fascinating history of Tangier. The tour includes admission to a couple of museums. Our guide was super knowledgeable and very engaging. He was happy to answer our questions. We strolled through the neighborhood and it was lovely. We sat for a bit in a cafe and enjoyed some mint tea before heading off to the Medina. We were dropped back at the hotel off by our driver. The tour is 3-4 hours so plan accordingly.
