Amazing experience

Youssef was an amazing guide and we hit all the great spots of Fes and learned a lot about Moroccan culture and history along the way. If I could give 10 stars, I’d do it!

We loved it!!

This was a great experience! The van picked us up at our apartment rental and we had a smooth, air conditioned drive to Fes. The tour of Fes covered a lot of ground in only one day! We learned a lot about the city and met plenty of friendly locals who told us about their crafts, and we had a blast the whole time! Lots of laughs and a delicious meal to top off the day. One of us had to take a break during the tour and they brought some juice and gave her a place to chill out while the others went to one of the sights. The private option was great for us too because we are middle aged women and we needed the bathroom a lot!! :) It was a great value for the money and we highly recommend it.

Fun day in Fes

Good agreements are always made with guide and driver (Yassir, was back our driver). We had used the same guide (Yousef) for the 2nd time (especially asked about when booking) because he can explain and tell well.

Fes in a Day - There's No Other Way!

This was a great trip. Although it rained all day, the experience - from pickup to the guide - made up for the rainy day. Our driver met us at the designated location. The bus accommodated us fairly comfortably- Black Mercedes Benz that sits 6. We arrived in Fes at the anticipated time and met our guide (Yousef). He was very good. His English is very good, he communicated very well and he answered all our questions. When he took us to the many stops on the tour, he was well received - everybody knew him. Just walking down the street or alley people are shouting his name - Yousef, Yousef! The guy is a star! When we wanted to buy stuff, he was our chief negotiator. Very good guide. One of the best parts of the tour was going through the Medina. We've been to a few Medinas in Morocco - Fes has (arguably) the best one and having Yousef as our guide made it even better. We left Rabat for Fes at 9:30am - took us about 2.5hrs to get to Fes. We returned to Rabat at 8:15pm. I am told it's typically a 10hr trip, but we were closer to 11hrs - which we were fine with. We appreciated the extra time in Fes. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience Fes and more specifically I would recommend Yousef.

Wonderful day

Our driver came to pick us up on time at our hotel. When in Fes, we picked up our guide Yousef. We went into the medina and saw some interesting crafts workers (bakery, pottery porcelain coop, tannery...). Made contact with them to answer our questions. There was a good interaction, we've learned a lot. We purchased some very nice souvenirs. We had a wonderful day. We would recommend this tour and Yousef to everybody who wants to go to Fes.

Incredible day in Fes

I had a truly amazing day! I had a comfortable ride though the Moroccan countryside with my driver Yassir. He pointed out interesting things along the way and we had a good chat! Once in Fes, my guide Youssef Elbargui helped me to learn so much over the course of the day about local history, culture, and artistry. We walked all over the Medina and environs with Youssef pointing out sites, providing information, and introducing me to wonderful artisans of different types of works. I learned so much about weaving, the process of making oils, medicinal herbs, and more. I was particularly fascinated by the process of making the ceramic tiles for mosaic pieces. All of these stops helped me appreciate the culture and the genius behind such intricate art. It was a great experience! I walked away with my brain completely full. There is so much to Fes that it can’t be fully experienced in a day, but this was a great introduction! Thank you Youssef and Yassir!

Operator response

We’re thrilled to hear you had an amazing day exploring Morocco. We're glad Yassir made your journey comfortable and enjoyable, and that you had great conversations along the way. It’s also wonderful to know that Youssef Elbargui helped you discover and learn so much in Fes. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for another memorable experience!

Fun in Fez

The driver and guide were very pleasant and obliging. Fez is a must see in terms of authenticity, culture and shopping for crafts! Visiting Fez really requires a guide because of the labyrinth of alleyways, especially in the Medina. Thanks very much to Hamza and Josef for making our day trip a most memorable one.
