Great experience for our...
Great experience for our family of 4. The driver was very friendly and accommodating. He could make the tour personal for us and offered places to visit so we could choose. Jardin majorelle was well worth the visit!

City tour
Picked up on time , great information given and some lovely sights seen . A lot safer than trying to do it in a taxi on your own
T
Great time in Marrakech
The tour guide was very good , he told us lots about marrakech and would highly recommend him to anyone
K
Worth the money.
Youssef insulted us almost straight away by assuming we were English 🤪, we corrected him and forgave him 🤣, he turned out to be a very good guide, very knowledgeable about history, he gave us time and space to visit the places and answered any questions we had. And he promised he would try haggis when he visits Scotland. The only thing I will say, you are not taken to traditional souks, you are taken to a spices store, then a department store which sells everything at fixed prices.

Friendly and professional...
Friendly and professional driver. Kind. Went above and beyond. Very knowledgeable. Highly recommend Youssef!
A
Easy & comfortable
Driver/guide Youssef took us to all the mention in the tour comfortably and waited us until we are done. It was a very good guiding in a city like Marrakesh under a very hot weather of 39°.

No entries included: basically a driver
I really liked our driver. Folks need to know that this is essentially a taxi for a few hours with a little history sprinkled in about Marrakech. Our driver offered to wait for us for many hours as we toured the Majorelle gardens and YSL museum but we told him we were ok. Basically every single thing in Marrakech is designed to suck cash out of tourists so you’ll need a wad of cash for all the places your driver takes you to. It’s still enjoyable but know that this is a taxi rather than an actual tour.

Personal Marrakech Tour
The traffic is tricky, the streets even more so, let a local take the strain! Have about 500 local currency.

I excellent driving trip
Omar was excellent driver in so busy city. It was more like very safe driving trip …but why not🙂 actually the YSL museum and garden needs at least 1+1hour minimum. We had bought tickets for both but arrived 5.15PM and 6PM was already closing time and it was definately too short time for these fantastic places.
