Beautiful walking tour of the city of Rabat with Sarra. She was very attentive and quite friendly. I recommend this tour, which allows you to fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the city.
Sarra was a very knowledgeable, friendly, and approachable guide. She was able to answer all of our questions as she showed us 3 out of the 9 UNESCO World Heritage sites in Morocco. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Would highly recommend this tour!

Reserved in civitatis. Lousy. Abdoullah wasted our day. He was late, made unnecessary 20-minute stops, wanted to stop continuously. He didn't have much knowledge about the city.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to read that you had such a disappointing experience during your visit to Rabat. However, after carefully reviewing the details mentioned, we believe there may be a confusion with another provider. Private Morocco Tours is not listed on Civitatis, and we do not have a guide named Abdoullah working with our team. Because of this, we are unable to identify this booking as one of our tours. We take every guest experience very seriously, and our licensed local guides are selected for their professionalism, punctuality, and knowledge of Rabat’s history and culture. We always aim to provide clear communication, a well-organized itinerary, and a warm, informative experience for every traveler. If this review was posted on our listing by mistake, we kindly invite you to contact the booking platform so the situation can be reviewed. We would also be happy to assist if you wish to share any additional booking details with us.
Very good informative walking tour of Rabat with a knowledgeable guide. Most major attractions in the city were visited.
Sarra, our tour guide taught us a lot about Rabat. She accommodated our needs. Sarra was a blessing.
We really enjoyed our guide, he was very knowledgeable and showed us some out of the way Rabat culture.
We had a great morning walking tour with Mohamed. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and helpful. Easy to talk to and he went out of his way to answer all our questions and help us make the most of our time in Rabat. One of the best tour guides we've had anywhere in the world! Could not recommend him more strongly. The price was also very reasonable for a private tour. Great experience all around!
