Introducing local life in Casablanca - Although I was the only confirmed participant in the group, I had a lovely time. Mohammad showed me every place worth seeing. We visited both medinas of Casablanca, and I had a chance to get a glimpse into the daily life of the local people. We drove past all the main attractions and made a few short walking stops. Mohammad answered all my questions about life in Casablanca and Morocco. This is a great way to get introduced to the city and its everyday life.

Exceptional tour - The best! Hicham met us at the cruise shuttle stop to personally escort us where we were going. Mohammed went out of his way to make sure we had a fantastic tour—he even escorted us to a restaurant that served our dietary restrictions, then he picked us up from the restaurant and gave us an extra tour of a synagogue because we had expressed interest. Both Hicham and Mohammed are wonderful and warm, I wholeheartedly recommend this tour!

Crash Course in Casablanca at its best - Our tour started at 9am and there were six of us, so we were only joined by four other travelers. Our guide Mohamed was phenomenal. He had such a grasp of the history, culture and cuisine of the area. He left no stone unturned. Moreover, he gave us a great crash course in all things Casablanca, which we so appreciated as we were only spending two nights in the city prior to continuing on. Our 3-hour tour turned into an almost six-hour tour, so the value for our investment was also amazing. If you like to embrace the culture, traditions and history of a place as much as we do, don't miss this tour. Totally worth the investment. Part of the tour is on foot, until your guide switches you all to taxis which enriches your ability to see every neighborhood and section of the city. We highly recommend this tour and Mohamed!

Guides are great for even the most experienced traveler! - After what turned out to be a very stressful morning spent in the old medina on our own, it was such a welcome relief to eventually connect and tour the area with our guide Abdul. He was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and a pleasure to spend the day with as we got a lot more out of exploring the city with him - someone who is not only familiar with, but passionate about the place as well! Would highly recommend.

Getting to know Casablanca - This tour gave a great overview of many of the historical aspects and main tourist areas of Casablanca. Our guide Mohammed was excellent in educating us on many historical and cultural ways of the Moroccan people.. the various sites he showed us, including the biscuit shop and tea house, and then he recommended a wonderful place for lunch.
Highly recommended tour for getting to know Casablanca
