We had a great time walking about Rabat with Ayoub! He was knowledgeable about the history of Rabat and tailored the tour to our interests. He also spent more time with us than expected. We would definitely recommend him again to anyone visiting Morocco!

Great walking tour with Ayoub
Ayoub is a fantastic guide for a walking tour. He has extensive knowledge of the social, cultural and political history of Morocco and specifically Rabat. He gave a really interesting and thorough introduction to the city and country. A perfect way to start my trip to Morocco!

Walking tour of Rabat
Good guide. Very knowledgeable. Answered all questions in an unrushed way. We wouldn’t have been able to appreciate Rabat properly without all the information he gave us.

Wonderful walk through Rabat
The guide Badr is a lovely young man and Rabat native. He answered our questions and allowed time for shopping. He made frequent stops to make sure we were following and no one in the group was left behind. I had previously stayed in Rabat, but every place we visited was new to me. He truly gave an insider's view of the city.
