Best guide in Fes
Khlafa was probably one of the best guides I’ve ever had! He was super knowledgable and I learnt so much during this tour. I felt safe walking around with him, he was always aware of everyone in the group (there were 14 of us). I really felt like I got a feel of the local culture and was able to see some of the handicraft in Fes.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour
We had a wonderful time on our walking tour of the Medina in Fez. Our guide provided a great deal of historical and cultural background that added to our understanding of the country, the city and the sites we were visiting. Highly recommended!

Beautiful cultural tour of Fes el Bali
We went to Fes on Friday 13 December for a tour of the old Medina Fes el Bali. At our Riad it was already recommended to take a guide and afterwards had no regrets. Yes, you can do it yourself, but then you will walk past half the buildings/highlights. It was pretty quiet this Friday because of the afternoon prayer and because it was December, but we loved that. You can see and do a lot more when it's just a bit quieter, so a must for people who would like to walk on and do / see more in a day. You may miss the full streets and full walls in some places. Khlafa is from Fes and is an experienced guide, he knows a lot about the history of Fes and stops at the buildings worth mentioning. Because it was quiet, we had quiet time to watch, taste and listen everywhere. In short, a nice tour through Fes with Khlafa where we also brought some nice souvenirs at the tannery and weaving mill.

We loved this tour!
We had the best time exploring Fes with Khlafa. He is incredibly knowledgable and we learned loads about the culture, history and crafts of Fes. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to gain a deeper understanding of this amazing city. I think this was my favourite activity during our 2 weeks in Morocco. Thanks again Khlafa!
