Radwan was amazing host. He asked us about our preferences and took us to places that we'd like that encompasses traditional Moroccan food. We enjoyed going to the pharmacy to get spices and he even took us to get some goods at the souk. Finally he helped us get a taxi back to our hotel. Would highly recommend booking this food tour!
Ebriham was an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge - not only about food in the Marrakech Medina, but about Morocco overall. He was engaging and easy to tour with - finding us lots of places to try without a lot of tourists! Definitely recommend!
Thanks to our wonderful guide Fatima we had a wonderful and educational evening in Marrakech. Fatima took us to the hidden eateries of the city. We enjoyed and enjoyed and can recommend this tour to everyone.
Heel erg bedankt voor jullie mooie review! Fijn om te horen dat jullie zo hebben genoten van de tour met Fatima en de verborgen smaken van Marrakech. Het was een plezier jullie te mogen verwelkomen! 🇲🇦❤️
Had a really enjoyable evening food tour with Khalid who was very informative and friendly. Sampled a great range of traditional Moroccan dishes at a number of different locations from simple food stalls to traditional restaurants. Amazing food but couldn’t have eaten any more! Would highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering the variety of Moroccan food with Khalid. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back again! 🇲🇦❤️
We loved our food tour in Marrakech! He took us to all the best places that were local and not the main tourist places. We didn’t have any full meals, but got to try a bit of everything and really enjoyed it! It’s also a nice walk throughout the city.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re happy you enjoyed discovering Marrakech’s authentic local spots and tasting a little bit of everything along the way. It was a pleasure having you with us! 🇲🇦❤️
Brahim was an incredible food tour guide. He gave us a history lesson, travel tips and importantly led us to great food places. Each place he had us visit seamlessly flowed into the next. Brahim was incredibly friendly and personable which led to a great overall experience. He had us try the street food at first. He adapted to our love of coffee and brought us to a special place where they heat sand to make the coffee. We ended in a restaurant that Gordon Ramsay and Queen Elizabeth II once visited (we saw their pictures on the wall in that very restaurant!!). The food there was great! Thanks again to Brahim!!! -Nabeel and Nabilah
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Nabeel and Nabilah! We’re thrilled you had such a great time with Brahim and enjoyed the food, stories, and special coffee stop 😊 Your kind words mean a lot to us!
Unfortunately we got food positioning, so we can not recommend. When this was highlighted we were told it was nothing to do with them or their tour, however we purposely don’t eat anything before the tour because we knew there would be a lot of food. The guide was great and we did have a good time, but we lost 50% of our holiday stuck in our hotel room.
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re really glad to hear that you enjoyed your time with our guide — we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. We’re very sorry to hear that you didn’t feel well after the tour. Your health and safety are extremely important to us. We work very closely with our food vendors and carefully select each stop to ensure quality and safety. Since January, we have hosted over 1,500 guests on this experience, and this is the first time we’ve received such feedback. On your specific tour, there were 7 participants in total, and we followed up — no other guests reported any similar issue. Of course, we completely understand how unpleasant this must have been, and we truly hope you are feeling much better now. It’s sometimes difficult to pinpoint the exact cause, as it could be something that didn’t sit well individually and not necessarily related to the tour itself. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we wish you a very quick recovery.
What a fun introduction to Marrakech! We've always loved Moroccan food, so we knew that our first night in the Red City, we would want to go with a guide to get some authentic eats. We were met by Khalid outside of Maroc Poste, thanks to easy directions delivered via WhatsApp. Khalid showed us about 10 super authentic foods—lamb tagine with 3-month preserved lemon, harissa-spiced olives, vegetable couscous, these wild sandwiches filled to the brim with spicy sausage, and more. And when a monstrous thunderstorm with HAIL came in, he dashed us into a rooftop bar (with covering) for a final course of juices and pastries. All in all, definitely an adventure with that weather! Oh, and the groups are SMALL—some food tours we saw were upwards of 20 people. This company keeps it small at a max of 8... we had 4 people in our group which was awesome! I will say, if you're looking for more adventurous eats (like sardine sandwiches, or sheeps brain), I would note it in your reservation, so they can customize it to your tastes.
Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re thrilled you had such a fun first night in Marrakech with Khalid—even with that wild weather 😊 It’s great to hear you enjoyed the variety of authentic dishes and the small group experience. We also appreciate your helpful tip about customizing the tour. Hope to welcome you again for another adventure!
We did a private tour with Ibrahim and had an amazing time.. It was great to get to experience the square with a local who knew the right places to eat at, We ate at one food stall in the souk that we had passed by and would never think to eat at. The food was amazing. Ibrahim was happy to make any extra stops we requested such as going to the date market so I could buy dates to take home already packaged. We tried snails in so many spices that they taste nothing like escargot. Had a winter time yea with 25 spices in it that make our tongues numb but tasted great. The best part was the avocado and orange juice smoothie. I don't even like avocado. Much care was taken to make sure everything was safe to eat for a member of our group with food allergies. There was so much food that we took the dessert pastries back to our hotel with us to eat later, We had an amazing time and Moroccan Food Tour is an amazing company and I highly recommend them.
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We’re delighted you had such an amazing private tour with Ibrahim and enjoyed discovering hidden food spots you might not have tried otherwise. It’s great to hear how accommodating he was and that everyone felt safe and well cared for, especially with food allergies. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Ibrahim. Thank you for the strong recommendation—we truly appreciate it!
We had a really great tour in Marrakesch and enjoyed typical Marrocan food together with locals and such a nice guide. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the Marrakech tour, the traditional Moroccan food, and sharing the experience with locals. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you again.
