Best tour in Morocco thus far.
A terrific tour of the Medina. So glad we opted for this. Got to see the inner workings of a bunch of different handicraftswith the inside track from Abdol who grew up in the medina. By far, the best tour guide we have had anywhere in Morocco. Cannot say enough.

Really lovely tour
Youssef was an excellent tour guide! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the history and culture of Fes. He made the tour engaging and personalized, answered all our questions, and showed us places we would never have found on our own. We never felt rushed, and his recommendations were fantastic. If you're looking for an authentic experience in Fes, we highly recommend touring with Youssef. Thank you for a wonderful day!

Amazing Fes experience, both historically and contemporary
Youssef met us by our predetermined place, was timely and showed us so much more than we had anticipated. Buildings, still partially intact from the 15th century as well as great information about the city.

Superb afternoon
Majid picked us up directly in our Riad and gave us an unforgettable and guided tour of the Medina. It was a Friday and most of the stalls were closed which made the visit easier as few people were rushing into the Medina, so to advise. Moreover Majid knows the history of fez perfectly and interested us at every corner.
Operator response
Merci beaucoup pour votre superbe retour !
Nous sommes ravis que la visite guidée avec Majid depuis votre Riad ait été inoubliable. Même un vendredi, avec les échoppes fermées, il est agréable de découvrir la Médina plus tranquillement, et nous sommes heureux que vous ayez pu en profiter pleinement.
Majid est passionné par l’histoire de Fès et aime partager chaque détail avec ses visiteurs. Vos commentaires nous motivent à continuer à offrir des expériences authentiques et mémorables.
