Wonderful, historic, memorable Tour giving complete insight into the heart of Marrakesh life. - After ensuring all the repeated confirmation instructions were carried out (clicking links on emails that connected to numbers for Whatsap, so be sure to have internet connection & charged mobile), viator who act as broker, pass the booking to the company in charge of the Tour. The company we were connected to for this Tour was Premium and despite some misunderstandings with the viator "repeated" confirmation process, Premium couldn't have been better at gaving myself and my teenage son a 10/10 historical day tour around Marrakesh with Camel ride (be careful if you're a single mother as the camel guide spotted no wedding ring and thought he had a chance of "adding" to his hireem which was funny at first, but as he continued, it kinda spoilt my enjoyment of the camels, especially as he then hounded me for a Tip making me feel extra vulnerable. I couldn't wait to get myself and my son back to our Driver for safety. As to the camal ride, this was a fabulous experience and we now have extra respect for such majestic animals. There was no spitting at all, the camels are such calm, beautiful creatures. Our Driver and Tour guide with Premium were outstanding in both safety, knowledge, English language, with total care and respect. As I had booked a Group Tour with Camel ride because of me being a lone female parent in a Muslim country, as no other members of the Group booking confirmed, we were given the Private Tour to include Lunch. I would thoroughly recommend this. Premium Tours via viator get 100/100 from me and my son.

Amazing Experience! - My husband and I had a wonderful time during this tour! It was an entire day packed with different places to visit. We started off at camel riding and it was very scary but you get used to it later on. Our tour guide was very fluent and packed with information as he guided as around the stops of this tour. There were 6 of us in the tour with him and everyone felt included as he conversed/had small talks with us apart from the other times that he would address us all. I also appreciate our tour guide for being very transparent and honest by telling us that there are precautions that we needed to adhere before we enter some areas we were visiting (like the souks, fnaa etc.) I was really amazed when we went to the actual people who hand-made their products. Personally I would really recommend this tour. Very proactive, safe and a quick way to learn more about Marrakech.

Family trip to Marrakech - We had a great time on the private family day trip to Marrakech. Our driver Youssef was on time, very welcoming and friendly. The van was very spacious and comfortable and they even accommodated our request for an infant seat. Our local guide Suleman was very knowledgable and eloquent- he made us feel at ease in the crowded areas and we felt we were in good hands and that we got a very comprehensive tour

Really good tour - Driver Reda was really nice, he picked me up at my hotel in time and took us to Marrakesh safely doing some minor explanation of things we saw on the way, when we arrived to Marrakesh we met our guide Youssef who was absolutely wonderful, he spoke really good English (and Spanish) which made it so much easier to follow the tour, he tools us a bunch of places and gave us a bunch a great recommendations, really good tour.

Private tour of Marrakech is well worth your time and money! - We had an outstanding experience with our day trip to Marrakech. Our driver Wahid was excellent. We were so happy to unexpectedly see him today after he was our driver for our tour of Casablanca yesterday. See our excellent review of that experience. Wahid is such a nice man and got us safely to our destination and back. He skillfully navigated the busy streets of Marrakech in delivering us to its many key sites. The camel ride experience he took us to just prior to arrival is something we will never forget. We got some iconic photos from it! Our guide in Marrakech was excellent as well. Yusuf regaled us with many interesting facts about the key sites in Marrakech. He took us to places that many tourists don’t get to see because of his voluminous local knowledge. Overall, the Casablanca day trip to Marrakech was an incredible experience that I highly recommend!
